    We all know Haymon picks the right fights for his fighters to build them up real well. Do you think Khan will go up against a puncher again?

    Either Porter or Thurman I would be betting.

    Who would you prefer? I think Thurman would be the easier fight for him. Porter would be harder because of his bum rush style.

    way past time for Khan to fight a power puncher so we can really gauge how much Hunter has really helped him.

    I think Khan-Thurman would answer a lot of questions for both guys. It would be the biggest test for both guys imo. Khan hasn't faced a big puncher in a long time, and Thurman looks to be vulnerable to the body(Khan can be suprisingly good with his body shots). It would also tactically be more interesting, as Khan-Porter looks a lot like Khan-Maidana.

    I agree. What kind of fighter would you say Thurman is? Khan of course is the boxer? Would you say Keith is more of a counter-puncher? or just a boxer/puncher?

    I'm really not sure, I don't think he's completely sure either. at times in the Collazo fight he looked like a outside boxer. I think I'd classify him as a boxer puncher, he just doesn't know which side to emphasize more.

    Khan needs to avenge his KO loss vs Garcia first, btw I think it ends the same as the first fight.

    I agree, I just don't see that as a likely next fight. I could be wrong though.

    I know we would like to see Thurman, Porter, Bradley or Brook next but I'm pretty sure it will be either Rios or Guerrero.

    Robert Guerrero. Khan will then mention how he beat the man who Floyd fought as Robert beat berto.
