    i dunno man....i mean khans body shot vs maidana was as flush a body shot you can get, if you get caught bang on the sweet spot your gonna be breathless......

    i dont think it takes power to do that tbf......its just a shock, like falling flat on your back, it knocks the wind out of you....

    i cant see khan carrying any power at 147, cos he cant spark any top level fighters out at 140.

    I think he has decent power but he needs to plant his feet more at times.

    Khan really needs to move up in weight, I think it's effecting his power, speed, stamina already. Power comes from the legs, as they have to be strong as a base, Khan's legs need to be beef up more at 147 and keep top half about the same as now but better hydration and not boiling down to 140 should help.

    :lol:

    If he sits on his punches at 140 he carries a bit of power, but he tends not to. Its more of a technique thing i think.

    At 147 he doesnt have good power at all, but he remains fast

    Na Khan would make a perfect 147 fighter, 147 will be Khan's best fighting weight.

    I base that on Khan's age, time at 140, height, size, frame, he needs to move up now, i think he is getting tight at the weight, but that is my own view.

    I like the way the rumours of Khan struggling to make 140lbs start just a few months before fighting the top dog in the division and his toughest test to date

    Yeah i heard that also, i saw a pic of him after the weigh in at Nandos his face was drawn and he had dark rings around his eye's, looked like he had not eat/drank for a while.
