    Cant vote as I don't see "can pick up a title if carefully managed but needs to stay away from punchers" as an option.

    Hatton would brutalise Khan.

    Hatton would just walk Khan down and fight him on the inside.

    Khan needs an inside fight like a hole in the head, and was roughed up by Gomez, who is smaller.

    Throwing him in with Hatton would be like throwing a mouse in with a lion :deal

    :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl :rofl

    Lets see he fights a shot, Gomez who is a little Super Feather and he is dropped and badly hurt by a body shot. He is almost stopped by a very light punching Limmond and he lands flush multiple times on several fighters without ever looking like KOing them.

    And he beats Hatton who is much bigger than Gomez, MUCH faster than Gomez, a far more devestating body puncher and who operates at 140, but come fight night is about 147. Hatton who has been stopped once by PBF who hits hard enough to have shook DLH, battererd Corrales and Gatti...and who is an ATG.

    How on earth does Khan beat Hatton? How? He is not faster than PBF, he does have more punches than PBF and he does not hit harder. But he has a far worse chin, and has not one hundreth of PBFs defence. He would eat body shots from Hatton and was getting caught bt Gomezs left hook.

    I don't know who is more stupid, guys like you who think Khan is the next Sugar Ray Robinson or people like Emma who have voted that he will end up with nothing and is a total fraud.:roll:

    Khan will win a world title, a fringe one and he has the ability to do well, but he will be found out by the best, and that does not mean absolute elites like Pacman, it means any of the top tier. Hatton would rip Khan to shreds inside 3 rounds.

    Bollocks. The shot was cuffing and thrown from a clinch, it did not have any body weight behind it and it never reached full extension. You clearly know nothing about boxing. Gomez is not a huge puncher at Super Feather. He landed bang on the chin on Arthur numerous times before Arthur went down. That shot to Khan was not on the point of the chin at all, it was across the side of the jaw and cheek.

    It was so close in that Gomez could not even get proper whip or leverage on it.

    It would not have floored the vast majority of good British lightweights never mind the likes of Pacman et al.:roll:

    There's no way Khan will be considered linear champ after defeating a warrior like Tzyu, nor will he then ever be in a position to take on P4P #1 or one of the best fighters of this generation.

    I can see Khan winning a title at some point, but being beaten by a world class boxer. I voted for WBU/WBO champ with 20 wins etc but dont think he'd take that route. I think, Ricky Hatton style, once he get a good run he'll start to take on the best, but unlike Ricky Hatton he wont be succesful against them.

    Also - think you're doing the WBO an injustice slightly by referring to it alongside WBU

    Yeah it says that you are either blind or delusional. How on earth was that shot "almost full force"? His feet were not set to throw the punch, he had not body weight behind it, he couldn't twist his hips and legs into the hook as you would with a full power hook...even Khans big fan McGuigan commented on how the shot was not a big punch.

    I agree the shot was cuffing, and was a roundhouse punch which you often see from a guy like Antonio Margarito.

    I pointed out on the general forum to an American poster who asked about Khan and how good he is, and whether or not he would beat Hatton, as Amir has been quoted.

    I said that Amir is vulnerable to the straight right and left hook, both to head and body. Guess what Ricky Hatton's signature punches are........

    Left hook to head and body
    Straight right

    Hatton by brutal KO.

    Khan as wat ahead of where allot of current world champs were after 18 fights, and expecially at the age of 21.

    That's the worst post I've seen on here and with a forum that is frequented by Betty Swollocks and FatJoe you have really gone some!

    Khan showed the other day that he has zero inside game, has a very poor chin and is susceptible to the body. Hatton has great power with his left hook, loves hitting to the body and no fighter has ever stopped him from getting on the inside. Hatton would give Khan fits, Khan just wouldn't have a chance with somebody as big, strong, powerful and relentless as Hatton. Of all the fights at 135/140, Hatton is the last fight Khan would be winning.

    Hatton would KO Khan in 3 rounds or less.

    Good point Rob - he is, but why all the fanfare???

    Good point also from onourway, Hatton could beat Khan one handed.

    So what? I am not saying he does not have potential, but to say he would beat Hatton is the most laughable and stupid thing that anyone as written on the Brit forum.
    I don't think you could even get Max Molyneux to agree with you there, and that is saying something.

    Rob - it is a good job you are arguing with Strike as opposed to Sleazenation, because I am sure he would be round to your office any second now........

    Khan does not have the power or defense to step in with Ricky. He needs to learn how to keep swarmers of average level off him before he fights someone who could stay over a fighter of Tzyus level.

    That being said, he has a good toolset for his stage, he just needs to stop banging on about being a world champion by the end of the year. He would lose his 0 to Casamayor, Campbell and any of the Diazs if he fought them before christmas
