    I'm surprised Paulie's popularity hasn't increased after The Jersey Shores.

    Mayweather would box his ears off and very likely stop him late without losing a round.

    Pacquiao would destroy him inside of 6.

    I do think Khan has some potential, and he can avoid big punches landing on his chin with his skill, but that and being ready for the two best fighters in the world are two different things. Mayweather and Pacquiao skill and style-wise>Breidis Prescott.

    1. He's been in with MAB. Over-the-hill but still, world class.
    2. KOs happen.
    3. He was hyped before Roach.
    4. Winning silver at the Olympics ain't nothing.
    5. A lot of galass-chin fighters do just fine relying on speed/technique, e.g. RJJ, Wlad
    6. Paulie is not a power puncher, he won't test his chin.
    7. What do you mean by 'we will soon see' that his chin is glass? He's already been KOed, we know, you're not exactly discovering a new continent here.

    Not a Khan lover hater, just an indifferent observer.

    My argument is that he can't back up his boasts. Mayweather talks **** but can. What part of that do you not understand?

    Uhh his mandatory challenger? You dumb uneducated ****.

    The guy hasn't seen Khan, so I showed him a video, comprende?

    Seriously, I just saw most of your posts and all you do is hate on the guy. You're just a hater who has nothing better to do. But please, continue. You only give Khan more hype and publicity with your hate. :hi:

    Fair enough but at the end of the day, his fights are good to watch and he obviously has much more talent that most, if not all, other British fighters. The chin argument for me is still a little thin. He was awful against Prescott but I'm not having it that any of the other knock-downs were anything other than an off balance fall overs. I do understand the dislike of the guy but I prefer to focus on the ring action, which is usually compelling. Any which way people will want to watch his fights.
