    I call bullshitt. He generally looks like a small guy and I remember Roach saying on dieting and roadwork alone Ruben got Khan to weight 4 days before weigh-in

    Knocking down Stan Martyniouk should be expected if you're top 4 in your division...

    If it was Angulo he was knocking down then i'd listen up.

    Guys naturally grow as they get older.

    When Floyd was Khans age,he was easily making 135.

    The guy is 5'10 after all

    He would have been better had he accept that he doesn't have a chin and develop the proper style for a chinny fighter.

    Instead he always ends up fooling himself into fighting like he has a chin

    This is a guy holding on to a hope. A hope that having more weight on him will make him more resilient to punches and give him a little more power.

    Not going to happen.

    I remember Angel Garcia saying Khan looked tiny for 140, let alone 147.


    Honestly, I think the move to 147 will ultimately end his career early, and hopefully he doesn't get badly hurt.

    Thats how he fights.

    Thats how hes been this successful. You cant just change a fighters make up like that.

    His biggest weapon is his offensive speed. Take that away and sure he might not get hurt as much, but he wouldnt be winning many fights either.
     
  15. hes delusional

    it says brook is a nobody and doesnt deserve the fight but he fought a lightweight molina? lol

    khan vs brook would sell well on ppv here in the uk
