HOW CAN YOU NOT SEE KHAN IS PUTTING IT ALL ON THE LINE!!! Hes flying the nest at 22 and taking on the big names. You yanks are a tough crowd to please. It seems its one thing or another with you lot, either way you just dont like the british.
paulie did drop Ndou who has a nice set of whiskers on him. much better whiskers than khan. So those who think Malignaggi has no chance of stunning khan are kinda off. Its gonna be hard for Paulie to land punches though.
not a surprise the Glass Jawed Khan fighting another guy with 5 KO's and a disgraceful KO rate. Khan should be ashamed considering the other fights that are out there for him. This is becoming a farce with this guy. He is no fighter.
You realise that PM is no. 5 LWW according to the ring. And given that some of the ones above him are Manny, Hatton and Amir, there's only 2 higher ranked LWW he could fight right now
Yeah, but it's not Kahn's fault if the Marquez fight doesn't happen. And according to boxrec, Maidana now has an opponent....
nobody cares about Khan fighting another feather fisted fighter. He can fight Maidena hell he could even avenge that brutal KO loss to Prescott. There are plenty of LEGIT fights out there for Khan yet he continues to be protected and coddled by fighting feather fisted opponents. This is a fact. EDIT: He could also fight Bradley, Alexander, Urango, Holt, etc. there are PLENTY of fights for him that would be a better test than Malignaggi.
"feather fisted malignaggi" "malignaggi has no power" etc etc. we get it. every single person doesnt need to say it. but he didnt become a world champion for nothing. yeah he doesnt have much power but khan is an overhyped glass chinned idiot and will lose this fight and hopefully end his american dream with it.
A better test of what, his chin or his fighting ability? If kahn fights prescott, all the haters say he's fighting a smaller guy who's not even ranked and lost his last fight. There's no way you can argue some1 like prescott is a better fighter than PM. Remember this is only Kahn's 3rd fight at LWW, and he's fighting the 5th best fighter in the weight class, who's at the top of his game. Its a tought fight and it really doesnt matter that PM doesnt have big power, thats not what makes a good boxer
I like Amir Khan, he's got a ton of talent. And his technique is getting better with every fight. He's got just about everything you could want in a fighter ............ ...... EXCEPT A CHIN ! That's the fundamental problem with Khan. He has a GENUINE GLASS JAW. Anyone who saw the Willie Limond fight could see that straight away. Limond is genuinely feather-fisted and had Khan down and on ***** street. Khan's chin is incredibly fragile. It's not something he can improve on. Malignaggi is the most feather-fisted boxer in the world, he cant crack an egg. But can he crack Khan's chin ? Seriously, I dont know. This fight is another piece of careful matchmaking on Khan's part. I can only assume Khan and his people just dont fancy their chances against any GOOD fighter who can hit at all. This could turn out to be a good fight though, I think both guys have heart and are motivated. But it could easily be a stinker too.
It's amazing how many people are writing off Malignaggi. Unlike Marquez, the guy is a legit 140 pounder and now that he's got a new trainer, seems to be a threat again. So what if he's feather fisted? You think Amir Khan is Floyd Mayweather? what the only way to beat Khan is to knock him out? He can't be outboxed? Khan may have the speed advantage but this can be nullified. Paulie is way more experienced and would be a test IMO, much greater than Marquez. Nacho knows wussup, he pretty much said that GBP is just trying to use Marquez to boost Khan's name. I've been saying that **** since last week. Roach, Nacho, Oscar, Schaefer etc, they all know Marquez is too small for Khan. This **** aint WWE wrestling, size does matter. As for Maidana, that would be an exciting fight knowing that one punch from Maidana could end it at any moment but he is one-dimensional and got beaten by the guy Khan beat. Both Paulie and Maidana are good fights.
