    To some extent, yeah but I have come to think that usually you can see how they will turn out by that age. I mean most of the time, guys like say morales, PBF, RJJ ect their skill was very evident by that age. Usually guys that come on better in later age werent really in the spot light early. We dont see too many guys struggle a bit early on in the spot light and then get a lot better later on.

    I think there might be something in what McCloskey said about Khan struggling to make 140.

    Khan didnt seem as fast tonight and his combo's lacked that pop and and explosiveness that they usually have, even in the last couple of rds against Maidana he looked better and quicker than at any point tonight.

    Think he might be wise to bypass Bradley and head straight to 147 if getting to 140 results in the Khan of tonight showing up

    Khan - Ariza = not in proper shape.

    Hopefully Khan can prove me wrong in his next fight.

    Ugly fight and he was less than impressive. He also must have picked up that lunging **** from Pacquiao. His defense is weak, and can be caught by punches going back, and in between his wide flurries. I hope that the Bradley fight happens next. It will be interesting.

    Khan didn’t look great but to be fair to him McCloskey (who’s a decent boxer) couldn’t win 1 minute of 1 round against him

    I just wish someone would've shot that sucka with the damn horn. But yea, Khan's gifted athletically but skill wise he's got a long way to go.

    Khan is a supremely talented fighter but the issues with his robotic offense and lack of head movement has not been addressed properly by Roach. Nobody in that division will look good against McCloskey, a slippy southpaw who moves well and has good lateral movement, and Bradley will not have a gameplan anything like McCloskey, so to think less of Khan based on that performance would be a bad idea. :rasta

    He won the fight fair and square. The stoppage was the **** of the fight, Khan did nothing wrong at all.

    Khan was trying too hard, Mccloskey wasnt trying enough.
