Why is it that Khan keeps fighting feather fisted men after the Garcia debacle?

    Molina/Alexander/Diaz/Collazo (biggest puncher of the lot but he's not BIG puncher) and now Algieri

    Discuss.

    Because of the Garcia debacle...

    Khan's a good fighter with an obvious weakness, not a lot more to it. If he can avoid the big shot he's a tough matchup for just about anyone.

    Al haymon is in charge of who Khan fights and who many others fight don't forget that.

    I don't think Khans personally scared to fight anyone.

    Collazo has decent power and even though he was past prime, Julio Diaz had decent pop too.

    I wouldnt call Alexander "featherfisted" either. He had middle of the road power.

    Because he isn't confident with himself.

    Garcia took Khan's soul, but styles make fights. Khan doesn't have the best chin in the world, but people over exaggerate it like any time someone touches it, he's gonna go down. It doesn't work that way.

    Khan can beat a lot of the guys out here due to his style. Only fighters at 147 who I feel confident to beat Khan are only May and Thurman. I feel as though Pac's style is tailor made for Khan and can envision Khan winning that fight.

    Although I usually don't respond back to ****ty responses, I'll bite.. even though you're probably a troll.

    Khan beats Pac in my honest opinion. Khan knows Pac's style and felt his punches. Styles make fights and Khan has the athletic talent. speed, height, reach and tools to beat Pacquaio.

    Does that mean I think Khan is better than Pac? No..

    Do I think Pac loses to Thurman, Garcia or even Peterson? Of course not, Pac absolutely man handles all of them including Thurman. I actually give Pac a good shot at beating Floyd on May 2nd. But like I've stated before, styles make fights.

    It's not only Khan's chin that's the problem. He has an extremely low ring IQ. People who think khan was caught by a lucky shot against Garcia are insane. He was looking for that shot all night and wasn't far off landing it on more than one occasion, before the KO. Also, contrary to belief, Khan wasn't dominating Garcia before the KO. He won the first round, the others are debatable.

    Khan will always be caught throwing combos because he doesn't know when, and when not to throw certain punches. Kell Brook would KHTFO. He has fast hands and thats it!
