    He makes for an entertaining fight and great viewing. You can quite rightly pick holes in his performance, but it was great to watch. Personally, they need to try and cash in on a big fight, because he is stuck between the style Roach taught him and the subtle changes Hunter is trying to make. Khan is still glaringly open at times. But, he did show heart and he did win, of course.

    Kotelnik, Maidana, Paulie, Zab all C Class:patsch

    This was something he was trying to implement for much of the match, when he was thinking his way around the ring and thinking about the punches he was throwing he was quite effective at bringing his hands up to protect his delicate jaw. As soon as he went into Roach rage mode everything went out the door, Khan probably needs 2 years of tutoring before he will ever get that out of his system.

    I'll keep it short troll, a con does not unify belts in one of the most competitive divisions in boxing.:hi:

    He was making mistakes amongst some of the distinct improvements he has also made, he was with Roach for what 3-4 years, those flaws are not going to disappear after 1 or 2 fights or even 3 or 4 fights, thats why its a shame he's going to be pushed in at the deep end before he's ready again

    He was far better defensively when hurt this time round than he has ever been in the past, he spoiled, used footwork and bought himself time, i dont necessarily agree with the tactics but he was able to show a few of the useful skills that Hunter has taught him to buy time.

    I dont give a **** about the criticism coming Khans way, he still has some very obvious flaws that he needs to sort out before he's ready to step up again. Im talking about the bull**** trolling etc
