Khan - Being at 147lbs is going to make me stronger

Khan is a sucker for the Left Hook, Horrible Chin, Bambi Legs and at 147 i don't see him beating anybody in the Top 5 or possibly Top 10.

 

@Scar, it's Virgil Hunter, not Hill.

 

Crap. atsch

 

Didn't know there's a thread on this out there. Might as well delete this thread.

 

Let's take a look at the Twitter King's history with weight divisions. Gets sparked at 135, blames it on two different trainers, weight(of course) and Ramadan. Moves up to 140 and dominates Kotelnik and Malignaggi(check their KO ratios for cheap comedy) and claims "Questions about my chin were answered. When you make the weight comfortably, life is good". Lets see what the Twitter Beast's excuse will be at 147 after beating a few with poor KO ratios and getting sparked against someone with decent(nothing more necessary) KO power. Sad thing is, he could literally get killed at 154 if he goes there after claiming he's drained. One thing's for sure, Virgil Hunter is getting all the blame along with the weight.

 

does anyone even take anything he says seriously anymore?

 

Khan's chin questions were fully answered when he fought Maidana at 140.. end of

Garcia hit him on the neck which had a different effect, note Garcia before that shot landed full blown lefts and rights on Khan's chin with no effect what so ever, NONE.

Diaz fight proved even a few pounds under 147 is hurtful to Khan.

Khan will prove alot of people on here wrong when he finds 147 his best fighting weight yet coming into the ring on fight night near 160lbs..

Mark my post here.....

 

It doesn't matter. Is he suddenly going to make him have better skills?

Is he going to have proper defensive skills? Will he know where to place his feet rather than skipping around the ring? Will he throw actual combinations that create and exploit openings rather than sloppy, inaccurate arm flurries that fool gullible people into thinking he's "schooling" his opponent when hardly any of the shots are landing?

Is going to have good balance? Ring instincts and intelligence?

You could give him a Kid Gavlian chin. He still would have flaws as long as Mike Tyson's rap sheet.

How hard is it for people to understand? He is simply not that good, for a world class fighter.

All you need is a pair of eyes to see that and the most basic understanding of boxing to see how incredibly flawed he is. My friend is a total newbie to boxing and even he shows more intelligence than many of the "hardcore" fans here. His observations after watching him fight the first time: he's very sloppy, not fluid, jittery. Yet there's people here who STILL maintain he's some super skilled fighter. LOL

 

Then why fight Diaz at a catchweight, but true Khan took Ward's punches at 152 pounds or some shxt :rofl

 

it seems like ages since khan had a fight

 

I think its a good decision for him. The punches of the opponents will be harder, however, it almost doesn't matter when you can get knocked out at a few divisions lower anyways, what I mean is, the disadvantage is negligible. Or rather, the increase in the disadvantage is negligible. However I feel his increase in power is worth moving up, because the guy's forte is his speed and offense, so if he can wallup somebody better with more power before they find his chin, its worth it. Of course, a bigger guy can take a bigger punch too, but I think at 47 he will be so comfortable weight wise, its worth it. I am not saying he is going to dominate, just saying its worth a shot.
