    Khan has some good natural power and its not forced... Itis by way of fast solid combinations that no body sees coming...

    He was definitly bigger.Unless he had a pump from working out before. (as he looked quite Vascular) His back and arms looked much more developed and he certainly looks like his growing into or possibly out of the weight.

    Khan has definately improved, i hate the hype as much as anyone, but he is doing what is asked of him. He is certainly becoming a more rounded boxer, Earl was regarded as a puncher, but unless you land blows it doesn't really mean anything. Earl was outclassed, i don't even think he got any shots off. The Limond knockdown was worrying, and when Khan does face another puncher who can take the punches and dish them out, we can assess his progress from that. Overall he is performing better and better.
