    Whoever lands first really.

    Khan is a hell of an underrated body puncher. If he catches Keith, Keith is gone.

    Likewise with Amir's chin. If Keith catches him, it's a wrap.

    Khan should not be favored over anyone with above average punching power.

    Based on this perspective Klitschko for example shouldn't be favoured over Wilder, yes Amir doesn't have a good chin but I would still back him to box Thurman to a UD. Khan goes into this one as favourite imo. Interesting fight none the less.

    It's like Maidana Khan deja vu...

    but I rate Thurmans chance to land the one hit quitter less though.

    If Maidana wasn't obese he would have a better chance in a rematch than Thurman ever would.

    Interesting. I think THurman is a better boxer than Maidana though.

    He is and with his boxing skill and power khan doesn't make it past round 10...as much as of an chump i think he is one thing khan doesn't lack is heart

    Khan will keep going but I think Thurman really comes on late and hurts him

    He might have overated power, but still has more than enough to ko Khan.

    Khan should win on points, Thurman has a decent punchers chance.. But I get the feeling Thurman thinks he can outbox Khan, that will be his downfall..
