    Sounds like there's going to be a lot of Guys hunched over a speeding fist if Khan gets KO'ed by Paulie.

    Khans opponents have had a total of 914 fights ( not counting Paulie ) with 234 KO wins a percentage of 25.6% 3 guys on the list have zero.

    there you go !

    Stats like that mean nothing unless you have something to compare it to. Presumably most fighters fight weak opposition in their first say 10-15 fights, presumably these Guys do not have many wins, let alone KO's. Pull the data for the first 20 fights for say Khan, Floyd and Manny, then you have something to talk about.

    No doubt and I've been watching Kahn since he started. He'll win this fight of that Im sure but its starting to get a little laughable that his entire career is being built around finding guys with belts and LOW ko records to fight.

    The only puncher he's faced was Prescott, all the stats in the world can't hide that.

    Im not a Khan hater by any stretch just a comment.

    I'm actually surprised it's that high. If you took Prescott and a couple of other guys out of the mix, it's probably more like 10-15 percent!:lol:

    I don't think Paulie has the power to shatter anything. Remember, Prescott has a huge punch. Going into the Khan fight, Prescott was 19-0 with 18 KOs. It was poor management to put Khan in with such a dangerous puncher.

    It's definitely a possibility that Khan gets starched. Not the likely outcome however, but still a real possibility.

    Oh yeah if you drop Prescott and Barrera ( since that wasnt actually Barrera in there ! ) it doesn't top 15 % but then you could drop a couple of the guys with Zero and bump it up a little so I'm being fair. ;)

    Somewhere between 0% and 0%.

    Prescott's power since the Khan debacle has shown to be very mediocre actually.

    I'm desperate for some shattered glass this weekend. C'mon Paulie, you can do it!

    It's the same as in the story where a weapon maker sells a spear which can penetrate everything and a shield which cannot be penetrated... but reverse it and you have:
    1) Paulie, a spear that penetrates nothing
    2) Khan, a shield that can easily be penetrated
    :D

    These threads are great. People say "Khan may get knocked out" and if he does, they quote their prediction and try and convince the forum they are the new Nostradamus. If he loses, it's "Well, Malignaggi can't punch anyway, when Khan fights a puncher, he gets brutally knocked out".

    I'm not even a Khan fan and I've posted about his chin since his amatuer days. However, some people on here are pathetic with it. They're just stupid with it.

    If you think Khan will get stopped, fine, but admit you were wrong if it doesn't happen. Which none of you will do.
