Are you joking. Just think about it: (a) Khan's punch resistance (to head and body) is one of the worst in world boxing today (among "top tier boxers", ie: above supposeed journeyman status). (b) Valero is one of the most devastating punchers in world boxing. Khan needs a very compassionate ref if he is to emerge victorious in this contest. I'm not even too sure if Khan could tie-up Valero on the inside in any case, even if he had the ref on his side.
Yes, because Prescott was far more proven. He was practically heading into the hall of fame, the Khan win just sealed the deal. What people need to consider is that Khan can't fight like he does for 5 rounds for a full 12. It's impossible to do so. And he's not a huge puncher, so barring flukey cuts he won't stop durable guys in that time. When he slows down and his opponent catches up he will be destroyed easily because he has a china chin.
:yep ive never watched a fighter where it feels like every minute of every round he could be in serious danger did you see his face after MAB? he even bruises easy. wana see the kid lose badly so his hateful fans abandon him and he can build himself up again like a normal fighter, although if he were to get banged out again im not sure he could:huh
On that evidence Khan would have him out in a couple of rounds. Hes so off balance he wouldnt get close to Amirs chin. Heard hes improved under dlh's old trainer, time will tell. Hype hob for now.
No ****ing way on holy heaven and earth will Khan ever beat Valero. There is no way that Roach would let Khan fight him anyway so forget about it. Roach knows the score, HE aint stupid. Valero is an animal and would only need to catch him once and then its good night vienna.
You must be joking. Valero is P4P one of the biggest punchers in boxing, Khan had a weak chin and terrible punch resistence. Valero has KO'd everyone he has fought. He won his first 18 fights via KO in the 1st round. Khan would have no chance, even if he got on his bike, Valero would get him eventually.
atsch What evidence? Valero destroys the #5 ranked Lightweight in the world inside two rounds, and this is somehow "evidence" that Khan would beat Valero?
The vid posted on page 1. Like most I havent seen enough of him yet. But from what I have seen in clips like the one posted he is technically massively flawed. He is constantly off balance, concrete footed and throws punches anywhere. Havent seen last nights fight, but according to the Yanks posting last night it was more of the same. This new trainer might sort him out. Well see. Trust me though, I am no Khan believer.
That's how I think it would go. Unfortunate for Khan his chin is utter bollocks because he has the skills to easliy outbox Valero.
