    In other words, would he fight outside his normal self. Instead of boxing, just became a full pressure fighter like Chris Algeri. I know there is no way he's going to box Khan because he's going to get outboxed.

    If Danny Garcia could find a way, I'm sure so could Thurman.

    Danny is a counter puncher. Thurman is not. Danny solely depends on his counter punching abilities to take a guy out.

    Okay so you think Thurman some point isn't going to land leather and Khan will be on the outside and not get hit the entire time. Stranger things have happened.

    Hey, the question I'm asking is do you think he will fight different from the way he normally fights. Of course, Khan can get hit from the outside but if Keith decides to fight from the outside his chances of winning decrease.

    He hit him with a good shot but Algeri is taller and had a longer reach. He didn't stun him, he just got a god shot. Thurman doesn't have the fortune with his shorter height and smaller reach. Thurman also telegraphs his shots too.

    Expect him to be outboxed

    Keith Thurman would knock him out, and that's not to say that it's because he's such a superior fighter, it's just a stylistic nightmare matchup for Khan.

    If Diaz and Algieri could find Khan, I think Thurman could too.

    Thurman would try to box him for a couple of rounds...wouldn't work too well...

    Then would go full pressure before gassing out.

    All Khan would have to do is pace himself and finish strong...also go on the full defence and make Thurman miss when he decides to put that pressure on.

    Would be a tough fight for both but for different reasons...I want Brook, Khan, Bradley and Thurman to face one another so SOOOO badly.

    There is no fight, it's ritual slaughter.

    See this is on point, Khan fans keep banging on about his speed and boxing ability but he has been on the floor how many times? How many times does he get hit and hurt?

    Recently, If fighters like Julio Diaz can deck him and hurt him repeatedly , Algieri can hurt him repeatedly what do you think big strong welterweights like Thurman and Brook do to him?

    That's why 5 fights after Garcia the best opponent has been Devon Alexander, a fighter Shawn Porter already had beaten.
