    You are right in that regard. While they are both southpaws, Pacman fights nothing like McCloskey.


    Btw anyone else question Khan fighting a southpaw before a meeting with the orthodox Bradley?

    Yup.

    Plus Roach in the past has alway used Khan to make Manny bring his A-game in sparring, and force him to get his timings right.

    This was the reason why I wanted Peterons instead. The only McCloskey will imitate his good upperbody movement and a bit of slickness.

    I want to see a fight between Alex and Khan's new conditioning coach, **** is going to be tense at wild card.

    I don't think Laz was implying Khan has the same pop as Mosley. Regardless, Khan isn't going to be used for his punching-power. It's the speed he brings.

    Hearing that Berto-Ortiz is looking good, only problem is finding a suitable venue. Most are booked for April 16.

    Hope SBO carry the card over to U.S this Ortiz vs Berto will be a good fight.

    yeah but it will be satifying to nip that one in the bud, remember all incessant nonsense about Munroe/Dunne?
