    He thrives off smacking C level fighters in the mouth who over commit. Against elite level fighters he maybe lands 1 or 2 shots at best then gets beaten into a shell.

    Clearly you overrate Judah. Easily to see this fight was a white wash from the outset. Nothing in Judah's less then stellar career at the top level would have said different. Even if Khan is flawed technically which he most certainly is, a Judah level fighter isnt going to exploit it. Cotto is a similarly flawed but talented fighter, although Cotto's flaws are different, he still beat Judah to a pulp. Khan beating Judah says nothing. Maidana would **** Judah.



    Because he has yet to fight an elite fighter. Although given that Maidana was with in a hair of KOing him, I'd say some of his flaws have already been exploited. Ala his shoe shinning.
    Judah elusive? :lol:
    Umm no. Khan fought Prescott the same way he fought all his fights. He was hurt by a jab. Most likely because he was draining himself to make weight. His chin is no worse then any other chin in this division. He can afford to sit down on his punches. His shoe shinning is what got him in trouble vs Maidana. When he sat down on his punches against Maidana is when he hurt him.

    There are plenty of fighters who sit down on their punches and dont get hit, this is because they can block punches with their gloves and arms. Khan can do the same thing. I've seen him do it. His dig to the body against Maidana should be part of his regular arsenal, he has the power. When he shoe shines you see him get in trouble with tougher fighters then Judah who dont wilt with the first landed punch.




    I dont want him to be like Mayweather. I want him to use his footwork to get into position to land punches, instead of bouncing around the ring, flinging punches, hoping they land.

    Khan had a 21% connect percentage against Judah. Thats pitiful. Judah is there to be hit, horrible flawed defensive fighter. If Khan would have used more economical movement, got inside and started throwing to Judahs body, probably would have stopped Judah in 2-3 rounds.
    Its worked well for him so far. Because he hasnt fought an elite fighter. He's not getting as much leverage on his punches as he should be. Again you are going off of last night. When against Maidana his punching technique nearly cost him the night. You overrated Judah. I didnt. However I dont forget Maidana, who is a far tougher fighter then Judah.
    So because he's winning he should stop trying to improve. :patsch

    the only fight he was dangerous in was Spinks II..

    don't make us laugh. Quit hyping Judah up for more than he ever was.

    but he did technically put Floyd on the Canvas..:smoke

    :rofl Umm YOU are the one who said Khan would struggle with Judah. I said he would obliterate him in the fashion that he did.

    he is not physically strong. he can be pushed around. like we saw in the maidana fight. he relies on speed and movement. guys like rios would give him serious problems. i would like to see him work on his power more. maybe moving up is not a bad idea

    If he sat down on his punches and stopped that flurrying I think that weakness could be averted.


    But yes, put Khan in there with a tough prime latino fighter, like a Maidana and Rios, before we start saying that nobody can beat him but Mayweather and Pac. :patsch

    he has flaws but his speed and youth makes up for them just like a lot of speedy fighter, Marcos will still give a hard fight now, I think kell brook would would probably beat him at 147 ortiz will be strong enough to walk through the shoe shining, lets see how Robert Gerroro looks at 140 cause he was a Hugh 130-135 lbs fighter

    To be honest i actualy liked what i saw from Khan. He looked very good, he looked comfortable and relaxed. I thought he did well to protect from that uppercut and he used his jab high and the jab to the body very well.

    He showed some solid punch placement, he had great combinations, i thought he executed a great great gameplan. I really liked how he used his height and reach also, just a very very good performance and the sky is the limit for him.

    I do think he over extended himself too much though and that would cost him against ELITE or may get himself in trouble with a lucky punch from someone. He's got a great team and Roach is obviously a brilliant tactician and groomer. After he faces TB i would like to see what he can do at 147...he has the body for it already.

    Judah disappointed me...it looked like he was searchin for a way out about the 4th round and he got it in the 5th...sad to see him go out like that.

    If he makes it to 147 i think Khan/Ortiz should be a good fight!

    Actually Judah probably has better fundamentals.

    he throws wide, looping punches that would be exploited by a prime PBF, DLH, Mosely or Pac.

    Khan looked great last night because roach knew that he would as zab was not very impressive in his last two fights.

    i dont see anyone beating khan at 140 not because of his skillset moreso because of the dearth of talent at the division.

    boxing is just **** right now.
