    Oh Amir, how entertainingly awesome it would be to see you run that gauntlet of fighters.
    He would truly be the king of something after that. King of-
    sleep, concussions, canvass,...

    Funny guy, you gotta give it to him.
    I think each knock out give him amnesia and erase memory of getting put to sleep.

    Khan can win the first 5 rounds against almost anyone, but then he loses focus and gets knocked out. Virgil Hill said he would easily beat El Pollo..............

    It's fine, forget those guys? Don't you know there's jeff horn, otherwise known as the 'easy option'. Although I'm not so sure it should be called the 'easy option', that's the fight we all know that khan will take. That's the one he has a chance of winning, I put the horn fight 55-45 in khan's favour. The welterweights at the the moment are all so wrong for khan, as they are really violent, offensive welterweights.

    Crawford is a good option for khan, I'd give crawford the win, but I wouldn't be surprised if khan takes that one. Same with pacquiao, both him and crawford are smaller welterweights.

    As for thurman and spence, I wouldn't even go anywhere near them. All wrong for khan. Especially thurman who is so aggressive and violent. And spence is such a tough cookie with a great body and chin. Khan would have to be on point for the whole 12 rounds to beat him, since he doesn't have the power to knock spence out.

    It's so hard to make a case for khan beating brook as well. If khan can avoid getting into a brawl with brook and box him for 12 rounds at range, he has a chance. I put Brook ahead on that one, 60-40.

    Best case scenario for khan I have:

    Khan beats Jeff Horn on points, wide decision
    beats Manny Pacquiao on points, close decision, outside chance of late stoppage
    beats Terence Crawford on points, very close decision
    beats Kell Brook on points, close decision
    loses to Keith Thurman by brutal KO, mid-late stoppage
    loses to Errol Spence Jr TKO, mid-late stoppage

    What I actually think will happen:

    Khan beats Jeff Horn on points, close decision
    beats Manny Pacquiao on points, very close decision
    loses to Terence Crawford on points, fairly close decision
    loses to Kell Brook by TKO, late stoppage
    loses to Keith Thurman by brutal KO, early stoppage
    loses to Errol Spence Jr TKO, mid-late stoppage

    Horn has proven to have a very good chin, stamina, heart, resiliency, and above average power. Khan would be mauled and stopped.

    It only took Danny Garcia 2 rounds to figure him out.
    Then he bounced him up and down for the next 2 until the stoppage.
    Keith, Spence and Crawford are all quicker and more dynamic offensively
    than Danny, Khan would get blown out. The Khan can outbox everyone early
    fallacy has to end.

    I know Khan isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer but surely even he doesn't believe the rubbish he comes out with. He'll face a couple of shot/domestic fighters then cash out with Brook.

    How do you know Khan is talking b*****ks ?
    His lips are moving.
