Sadly for him that's not something that's really fixable.

I get what you mean, like a weak chin is someone who gets KOd by one of those punches, but khan doesn't, but his whole body feels it, like his legs go, his arms go, he wobbles, that is the issue.

High anxiety and wrapped too tight. He never looks relaxed to me.

He seems to have lost any snap in his punches, spends too much time and energy running around like a prick and still gets clumped/dropped just as much.

Get him in great shape and send him out to fight with no instructions whatsoever. The results wont change.

Hill and Diaz. Class acts.

I just knew that at some point I'd call him Virgil Hill.

Exactly. He would of been asleep from them punches.

Dehydration. Fasting. You take a lot of fluids on in food and although it ain't Ramadan I can't help thinking it may be a contributing factor.

People need to accept this is who khan is and how he fights. Theres nothing wrong with that and its very exciting.

The problem is, that khans speed and combinations look great but are not knocking these guys down or hurting them to a degree where they back off.

Well good watching the fight with you guys!

I'm so tired, I'm gonna do something unusual and sleep on fight night.

Catch the rest of the fights tomorrow.


Night all!

Richard seemed very reluctant to name garcia as the possible opponent for december.

Looks as though its peterson 2 and if khan wins he will move up to welter and avoid garcia.

He can hurt people and make them think twice, he is not a massive puncher but there is no rule saying you have to win by stoppage.

Good reply. Lol

Hearns, Lennox, noriss all had issues of resistance to punches and they did well in their careers. So can khan.
