Am I the only one who thinks Khan should avoid this fight at all costs. Judah has lightning speed and a hell of a lot of power. As someone posted earlier he will connect plenty for at least 4 rounds and I just cant see Khan taking any of those shots
I think this place has gone into hype overdrive regarding Khan. Some of the most pertinent questions regarding his frailties have not been answered in his last three fights. Yet now people dismiss Judah as no challenge, and talk about him beating Bradley with relative ease. It makes no sense to me.
I reckon Khan will make him look silly and stop him. I think it's simply the right time for Khan and the wrong time for Judah at this point in their careers.
Judah is a very bad matchup for Khan. Khan has never fought anyone with hand speed or power (excluding prescott who mitchell showed to be not that bigger hitter) add to that he has rarely fought southpaws. Khan will not have the chin to last with Zab. Who has only lost to guys bigger than him at 140 Zab will be stronger more experienced and will walk through Khan. Khan doesn't have the power and will miss plenty of shots. Zab won't be there to hit all night like a kotlenik a b grade kessler.
I don't think the Mitchel fight proved this at all. He fought a smart fight and didn't allow Prescott the chance to land anything big.
Not to the same extent as what hit Khan, surely. Khan was hit by sickening punches, because he was lunging in and punching at the same time...this doubles the impact of the blow, because you're adding your own momentum to the opponent's incoming punch. Not only that, but it happened about three times, almost in succession...I'm not sure many people would have survived that, let alone someone as frail as Khan. I'm amazed he even stood up.
If he wins this and takes a decent whack on the chin in the process I'd maybe start to believe some of the hype. His last three fights haven't proved to me he can cut it with the elite,far from it. Some on this board have been writing off guys like Bradley. Shocking really.
presscot has a spearing jab that wobbled kevin, it was the same kind of jab that kd'd presscotts last opponent, and it was the same kind of jab that made khans legs buckle but dispite that i think 90% of fighters would have had there legs under them when presscot landed the short left hook to khans temple that setup the subsequent punches
Terrible fight for Khan. Absolutely stupid risk. Judah isn't even a major factor at 147 at the moment. If you are going to take a risk like Judah, he is better off facing Alexander, Urango or Bradley. He is facing a guy bigger, faster and more powerful than any of the titlists. Really stupid fight for him.
