    These p4p talents have deservedly earned their hype lately, so I felt like polling ESB. Who do you guys think is the better talent; Donaire or Khan?

    Donaire. You will never see Khan one shot KO or thoroughly dismantle another great fighter like Donaire did.

    Khans a good fighter tho but i dont think he will reach elite level

    Donaire has much better ring IQ. Amir has super fast hands. Fast guys grow on trees though.

    This is true.... but Con isnt THAT talented.

    Outside of handspeed.... Conman doesnt have much else. He has poor footwork, poor defensive reflexes, and a poor chin.

    I agree, although you could argue that his punch resistance has improved since he moved up and got a little older...maybe.

    I just wonder of all fighters on the planet why is Amir Khan the one Nonito is being assosiated with. Why not Roman Gonzalez or Ward or Bradley or something like that.

    Matter of timing. I thought the hype being put out on this board after the Donaire fight was the most since the Khan fight. The board didn;t errupt in a hype frenzy after Bradley-Alexander or after Ward-Bike. I'm just pulse checking :good
