    It's strange with Khan sometimes he seems to be able to take a shot fine and then other times he gets rocked easy.

    Khan's a very good fighter, but no where near great.

    He has elite qualities and he also has shortcomings, B minus or B plus depending on the opponent I guess.

    Naturally gifted with alot of talent. Many people underestimate alot of his abilities and just think he has speed which is clearly not true otherwise he wouldn't have performed to the level he has.

    unfortunately time is running out for Khan his prime is well and truly over and it's going to be hard for him to get them victories he is hunting for over the next 2 years.

    His resume says it all. You missed some important fights off there (Kotelnik) and you should exclude some (Barrera).

    Not sure how you can say his prime is over when his best and most complete performance was Alexander. Personally I think the best is to come.

    Unfortunately the Alexander fight is looking like an exception. It's the only fight Khan has had at 147 where all his physical qualities have shown to be on point...and Alexander's style likely played a role in allowing Khan to perform on that level.

    I think it's over for Khan once he hits 30.

    His style relies heavily on his speed. He has glaring flaws.

    He's a good fighter but it's hard to assess how good he really is at WW since he's steered clear of fighting anyone with a modicum of punching power.

    When that day arrives, we can re-evaluate him. Personally I think he could be a champion at JWW, but his chin probably won't hold up against the hard hitting fighters at WW.
