Khan Looking To Face Paul McCloskey Next!

Whats wrong with Presscot? You should want that fight so gives Khan to completely rid of his past demons.

But other than him theres

the winner or loser of Bradley/Alexander and Maidana rematch. hell I wouldnt be too upset at Khan to test the waters at 147 briefly just to see how he feels, i mean cmon after all he does have ambitions to fight mayweather in 12-15 months there.

 

Not at all, I may debate your assessment of McCloskey(or agree with it depending on what you say) and how he shapes up against Khan. But I certainly won't be having a go at yourself.

So who do you want instead ?, keep in mind that Bradley, Alexander, Marquez, Maidana, Kotelnik, Mabuza, Judah, Ortiz and Peterson are pretty much all out of the running.

You seem to prefer a fight with Prescott, and while I can see the interest in that point from the point of view that he holds a win over Khan. However McCloskey is a vastly superior fighter to Prescott, who has been found out for what he really is.

 

ok, my personal asessment of Paul is that hes a very average fighter. I dont see any special traits like speed, power, defense, or high workrate in him. He keeps his chin way out in the open and throws wide hooks alot which will make him an easy target for a quick straight puncher like Khan but some pros i remember seeing that he had a very sneaky uppercut similiar to Zab Judahs just not as lethal and he can control his pace at a very steady rate for all 12 rounds. But frankly I dont feel he has that one punch power to change the momentum of the fight with Khan while on the offense(unless Khan recklessly rushes in) nor the power to accumulate damage on Khan.

 

On paper this fight is quite justifiable. In reality it will be another Salita job make no mistake about that.

But im not gunna slag Khan off because this is quite a justifiable british scrap while Khan waits for Bradley/Alexander.

Similar to when Hamed fought Paul Ingle it makes decent sense over here

 

McCloskey is not ****ing Salita, make no mistake about that ****
