    Kendall Holt is an extremely dangerous fight. Kendall will usually fall to
    fatigue (mental and physical), but that's against pressure fighters. Khan
    is not a pressure fighter. His in and out style is just the kind of style that
    would allow Kendall to lay back, not exhaust himself and attempt to
    land that counter left hook. I doubt Khan takes this fight (he's brave
    enough to, but his handlers would look at that as all risk no reward).

    Holt is a dangerous fight? :nut, he was recently knocked out by Peterson who isn't even a heavy puncher.

    @Scar, that khan that fought judah and malignaggi doesn't exist anymore. Khan is nothing but a joke now.

    He still has speed and Holt is coming off a knockout loss to Peterson. Trust me, Hold has no chance in hell here. In order to beat Khan you need to be able to take his punch and get in. That's how Garcia beat him, he was able to take his punches to time him and knock him out. Diaz was able to take his punch too, which is why he was finally able to time Khan's predictable one-twos. Holt will be taken out early in this fight.

    If Holt gets passed the first 3/4 rounds he knocks Khan out in brutal fashion, Khan may be the best 4 round fighter in the world, he should look to try and compete in the Rio Olympics along with Wlad, he's better suited to the amatuer game.

    Not sure how Holt shows up. Khan isn't the same man he was a few years ago, though. Holt by early KO OR Khan by late TKO.

    Neither one is particularly durable, but Khan's punch resistance is some of the worst I've ever seen on a world class fighter.

    Holt KO 4

    Holt had a helluva left hook, not a wise matchup for Khan!

    Nice left hook to the body to set it up, too. Another punch Khan is vulnerable to.
