Tremendous fight and a lot of heart by both fighters but what do you guys think ... any long term effects on Khan as he took a pretty brutal beating in the 10th? This is what Naseem Hameed had to say, Khan is young so my thinking is that this is not going to have any long term effects on him. Thoughts ?
Khan has stated he intends to retire before he's 30. if he sticks to his word then he'll come out of boxing with all his marbles.
I want to see him fight like he did against Kotelnik and Malignaggi but using more angles. Don't want to see the guy taking punishment- he doesn't need to, he's got the technical ability and speed and has now proven a point to his critics.
I mean't long terms effects while he is fighting. Cotto was never the same after Margarito's illegal fiasco. And so many others ...
don't think it will have much effect on him providing he doesn't get involved in another fight like that.
He will be fine, its the first sustained beating he has taken, and iam sure Mr roach will sort that out. This was a great fight for kahn to develope further as a fighter. prooved a lot of things last night. Proud of the kid. Living up to his potential slowly but surley.
