    Weight Drained, When Khan moves to 140 his chin will improve, right now Roach's team have moved weight down to his legs to help his chin and balance.

    Oh, so now Khan was only knocked down by guys with 5 KO's and knocked out in 58 seconds by an unknown because he was weight drained? :lol::rofl:patsch

    You people never cease to amaze me on here. :patsch

    Yeah thats right, Khan has been lightweight for 5 growing years, at 5'10 he should be at 140.

    That's not speed; that is a skill.

    That's possible but Manny is still better than Khan. Manny has developed alot of stamina, strength, and technique.

    I already noticed this even before Khan joined Roach's camp. Even then, I already thought Khan had comparable handspeed to Manny. The kid IS fast and is skilled. His punch resistance is the only thing that's keeping him from being a great fighter IMO.

    Roach said Khan can hold his own against Manny for 3 rounds. But I wonder what happens after those three rounds? Kinda makes me wonder.
