Shawn Porter talking about Amir Khan never changing from his amateur style on his podcast this week. Got me wondering how a prime for prime fight between these 2 would have went… Who you got? Khan’s speed would have caused Porter huge problems in the early rounds but I think Porter would have got to him in the later stages. It would then depend if Khan can survive to the final bell. I’ll go Porter via split decision
It would go the same way nearly all of Khans fights went when he stepped up to elite level. Khan does well until he doesn't and *insert opponents name here* cracks then shatters that discount china Amir calls his jaw.
Porter KO. Khan wouldn't be able to handle Porter's aggression and pressure fighting. Porter sits on your chest.
If they were the same size, I actually give Khan a reasonable shot. Porter is way too big naturally though. Khan survived a beating from Maidana, so anything is possible. Fight would have to be at 140 to be competitive.
Porter is all wrong for Khan stylistically. He eats up pure boxers who lack power, as seen against Alexander and Malignaggi. Porter by stoppage.
