Superb stuff from Amir Khan and he just looks better and better everytime under Hunters guide for me,
Those 1-2's he was firing off were done with crazy speed, his footwork and balance were tip top and he took a few decent shots along the way that didn't seem to bother him at all.
Totally outclassed Alexander who was just chasing shadows all night.
Khan came into the fight at Middleweight after rehydrating and added about 13 pounds back on and still carried devastating speed and looked very fresh faced and healthy and has zero stamina issues whatsoever, looked like he could go another 5 rounds at that pace.
Floyd simply can't fight at that pace and would have to knock him out to win and after seeing that last night i'd even have Khan as favourite.
He might have even fucked that fight up for himself because i don't think Floyd can or wants to go against someone that physically fit/busy and fast at this stage of his career.
Khan on points for me.
Props to Virgil Hunter too, i like the no Bullshit way he handles Khan and the fact he was still verbally tearing into him even after the fight.
Khan really has matured as a fighter and looked seriously seriously good last night and seems to have put the silly mistakes behind him and gets out of range faster than he used to now.
Well done Amir Khan you did England and yourself proud
Khan v Alexander - full fight
