    Khan can take a shot. He has tried to give the impression that he can not in certain previous fights because he knows how avoided he would become without that fabricated flaw. Khan knows now that by giving opponents a small shimmer of light that they can pull off a surprise win against him that they would be more willing to fight him. Great work on his part me thinks.

    imo he will be the complete package in two years time, bar the chin, he cant take a shot, that said, his recovery time from taking a punch is good :good

    He has very little variety in his combinations, hence him throwing entire sequences onto his opponents gloves and there's some question with regards to his punch resistance. People may need to take into account, that being honest may not be in Sky's best interest.

    When you area gifted athlete, you think less about the basic fundamentals. Amir Khan just thinks more about the basic fundamentals now, guard up. Get your punche's off, and they get out of countering range, sistimatic approach. Amir Khan has great speed, Roy Jone's type Speed, he has decent mobility...and i think his Power is somewhat underrated. He can course allot of trouble in this game, even if his punch resistance is weak.

    I still say that 99.9% of British Lightweights...only have a punchers chance against him. Because he sh*t's on them all technically, shits on them all athletically......................

    Amir Khan on form, does not beat guys.

    He beats GUYS DOWN!!!

    ***** beats guys Down!

    Significant improvements don't happen overnight so give him a year or two with Roach !

    He can throw straight pucnhes, combinations...every punch in the book.

    Technically he is far better than any british light weight.

    They all look ****.

    He just need's to work on the basic fundamentals, and work everything off that.

    Insted of going down the "Roy Jones Junior" road...of being a super hero.
