Khan has no business losing this fight. His promoters have handpicked opponents that cannot hurt him. Willie Limond, his opponent has 28 wins, 8 KO's = 28% KO rate. Look at the KO percentages of his last 5 opponents: Steffy Bull 24 wins, 5 KO's = 21% KO rate Mohammed Medjadji: 19 wins, 3 KO's = 15% KO rate Rachid Drilzane: 12 wins, 1 KO = 8% KO rate Ryan Barrett = 15 wins, 3 KO's = 20% KO rate Colin Bain = 10 wins, 0 KO's = 0% Granted, it's still early in Khan's career, so he'll get a pass for the weak opposition.. but I can't wait to see someone test those whiskers of his..
Yeah I think his people keep him away from strong fighters for a reason.. He shouldnt really be fighting them bums.. I know he's young but isnt he an olympian or something?
are you a bum if you are not a puncher ? khan has faced winning opposition in his fledgling career. khan leaves his chin out still as he tries to impress when aggressive ,and has still not settled down to a pro style ,but he will and his defense will improve when he does. the flaws are obviuous and taking care he does not get sparked in his early career is smart as he will walk onto one at sometime or other.
Khans management is taking this to a whole new level. They used to pick on guys with feather fists now, it is guys with feather fists who have fought ONCE in the last 18 MONTHS!
It would torpedo his pro career, of course. He's a very young lad so he'd have plenty of time to work on his game and comeback, but it would take major gloss off, especially if he got knocked out.
I doubt he will lose, but if he does, it would be either devestating to his career or he would come back strong, put it behind him, and learn greatly from it.
