    How bad of a boxer can you be to solely depend on your opponent having a bad chin, haha.

    You don't just go 12 rounds and shutout the likes of Guerrero and Bundu on the cards by having nothing but a big punch. Khan's only chance of not losing a Thurman fight is not taking the fight, haha.

    Khan does everything better than thurman except punching power. When asked by interviewers, his response was, "I believe Khan's chin won't hold up to my power"

    Well yes. That and ring IQ and footwork and well, everything other than handspeed and now clinching.

    I think Thurman would maul Khan. There's a reason they've kept Khan away from the big punchers.

    And not only that, Algieri pushed Khan to his limits.

    I think the fight should have been scored a draw myself.

    No its the fact that Khan outboxes most people but his chin is always there for the taking, Thurman although I don't rate him as highly as most, is a good boxer, I just feel he is stuck between styles. He doesn't outbox Khan but he has a very good chance of KO'ing Khan.

    Yeah he almost never won a round decisively, barely edged them most. Although I scored it 116-112 myself, I can see how many people thought it was at least a draw for Algieri.

    I think its fairly clear and abvious that Thurman carries the bang to send Khan wibble wobbles all over the ring. Thurman is also a more accurate puncher than the likes of Maidana so i assume he wil find the target .... Khan will be beat almost every boxer in the world i feel that doesnt hit hard enough... the only question is how hard to you need to hit to level Khan .... loadsa guys out there that spark out Khan..But as i said if you dont have the power it could be a very long night for you against Khan. (Brook, Maidana 2nd time, Garcia, Mathysse, Thurman, provodnikov of the top of my head end Khan within the 12)

    Them the truths sadly not enough folk speak it on here ...mainly both ends of the spectrum either haters or fanboys

    but every fighter solely knows get khan on the back foot and pressure him and other than run , push , headlock , and leaning down on smaller opponents are theses the signs of a great boxer

    Does Floyd Mayweather not do the same. Stop it with your double standards.

    Floyd mixes in not being crushed by left hooks and overhand rights from Chris Algieri.

    Khan already whooped Maidana. Maidana couldn't do anything. Please don't bring his name up EVER again.
    Brook? Who the ***** has Brook knocked out!?

    Stop saying Brook is a strong puncher, this and that. His only good opposition was Shawn Porter!

    A guy who drew with Julio freaking diaz.
