Khan is more composed now with Virgil. He does not try and make mistakes and fights disciplined. He is less reckless.
Re: Khan's boxing skills.
Basic skills at exceptional speed. Underrated pop in his punches. Good output.

He's dropped and/ or hurt a surprising amount of fighters when you think about is Master.

At welterweight I think he does not hit hard, he has good body work but his new cautious style means he will not knock out a top welterweight again.

"Schooled"
I presume you have seen him fight?
Exceptional speed, world class jab, good hooks, good feet, good movement, stands a little straight, decent reach, questionable chin, good punch, easily disturbed, steps straight back with left hand down from exchanges, knows how to use the ring but chooses not to. All and all, a top ten 140/147 in the world who on any given night could win a big fight or hunk of tin.

Did he lower his left hand in the Collazo fight?

He Put Maidana on his ass in the first round and if it wasn't right at the end of the round would have 99% stopped him, Collazo is a solid fighter and he put him down twice wasn't it?
I def wouldn't say he doesn't hit hard because it's proven that he does.
Very underrated body puncher Khan ;)

Maidana was at lightwelter and I said he was a good body puncher but light punchers often are. ;)

He can move... he can slip punches... he can counter punch... but it's just that when you get him on queer street, you can pretty much end the night from there.
Khan just has to forget that Ramadan and religious BS and eat some meat before the fight. Tis all.... Allah will understand!
