To be honest, you keep bringing up Ortiz's quit job against Maidana. Fair enough. But you also seem to get incensed when people bring up Khan's glaring flaws. Of which cannot be fixed within one training camp, I don't care what the hypetrain surrounding him is. This is all a moot point anyway. Khan may look **** at ww. No one knows...
He didn't KO Khan. Khan simply got so ahead on the scorecards, where in a points contest, Ortiz couldn't realistically come back from the deficit. Nothing surprising there, as Khan is a speedster. Now how many guys have met in the amateurs and it's had a completely different outcome in the pros?
Khan hasn't lost any fight based on his supposed flaws?. That's the problem. People say he doesn't have a jab? no accuracy? no power? footwork? Where have these supposed flaws cost him a fight against top competition? No where. His camp for Peterson was built specifically around sparring bigger opponents, strength conditioning and in-fighting. In these area's I expect to have improved. He would have beat Peterson, and I see him easily beating Ortiz if they do ever have a fight.
Many. I agree with you. Amateurs is far from professional. I was pointing out the mystique wont be there for Khan in the ring with Ortiz. [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TaTVHIxtaj4&feature=relmfu[/ame]
Ortiz would overwhelm Khan within 10, as said Ortiz brings all the attributes Khan has trouble dealing with.
simply put this fight needs to be made, and I really see being made, maybe even next up, on hbo pay per view. excellent clash of styles and somewhat of a history. make this fight!
Again based on what? He hasent fought since Pederson so there no way of knowing unless your inside the camp? Are you inside the camp? if not then you can't say his footwork has improved.

I imagine Khan's inside game and ability to withstand bully-like tactics is much better. I think he beats Ortiz on points. Unless your inside the camp you can't imagane anything. I imagane his footwork and inside game is worse than ever.
Khan is a one dimensional fighter that HAS NO CHOICE but to fight the way he does because of his Glass Jaw. He doesn't fight on the inside because he Khan't because he will get savagely KOed. He doesn't sit on his punches because he Khan't because he will get savagely KOed by a counter punch. This is basic stuff people. He fights the way he does because he has no other option if he wants to have ANY chance to win the fight. The guy has one of the 3 worst Chins in the sport. He has an abysmal Glass Jaw. There is a reason he throws the little pitter pat flurries then scurries off backwards then repeats this over and over. If he were to try and fight like a normal fighter he would get his head knocked in the 15th row. Khan knows it. Roach knows it. Everybody seems to know this but his delusional fans. Khan will NEVER fight on the inside. Never. They are not even working on this.
And if my opinion isn't enough he could simply scroll down and see ESB Legend Rico Spadafora give an almost verbatim answer. Khan is a Glass Jawed Fraud.
