every thing you say about khan is based on assumption khan cant fight on the backfoot name me one fight where he sucesfully beat a fighter off the back foot. Khan cant fight off the ropes again name me a fight where he's done this, khan hasn't shown the ability to fight on the inside plz show me evidence he has? some of the attributes is what khan really needs if he's going to have some kind of success against pressure time fighters. and when was the last time khan actually Ko'd someone judah quit the fight and it was'nt because of the body shot but because of sustained punishment. he has respectable power, you make massive assumptions which are not even based on solid evidence.
I am sure that most of the extra 7 pounds will go onto Khan's lower body, They will keep his top half most or less the same in order to retain his key asset his hand speed. That should improve Khan's power and balance as his legs right now are still too skinny.
AGAIN, the highlighted word's being the important one's. What if the extra weight goes to Khan's upper body?
at 147 you have guys who are taller then khan like Mike jones and a couple of others, part of the reason why khans so sucesful in his fights is because he's normally the guy with the height advantage when thats taken away from him then whats his back up plan? obviously is all fine and good for you to build theories but try and answer the question and be a bit relevant
I think with Khans frame the weight would defo go on his upper body, the main proportion of the extra weight anyway imo.
Roach knows the importance of retaining speed, watching the recent 24/7 Alex was saying when he first took charge of Manny Roach said to him you can change what ever you want on him but just don't **** with his speed. Also when Khan joined wild card he was too top heavy and they trimmed him down up top and added the weight down to his legs. Roach understands Speed and timing is the key asset most of the time which sets Manny and now Khan from other fighters do its a safe bet that he will try to keep that.
You dont have a clue what your talking about, he beat those fighters on movement and handspeed, each time maidana pressurized khan, khan had no answer but to lay back on the ropes and weathered the storm,and against kotelnik he was fighting a stationary target a guy whos a natural counter puncher and who rarely goes on the offense.
'I am sure most of the 7lbs will go on Khan's lower body' Yes I'm sure they can magically make sure all 7lbs go to his legs. Shut up man, you're an embarrassment. They aren't ****ing magicians in Camp Khan. Most will go to his upper body, period.
Peterson is the same size as Khan, and also has a good jab, this will be a good marker for 147 guys and be a thinking fight for Khan. But true that's going to be interesting to see how Khan deals with guys bigger than him.
