Right now of course he shouldn't be thrown in with Marquez but who knows where we will be a year from now.
I'll tell you where Marquez will be. One year older:cool:

A couple years ago Barrera was ranked in the top 3 p4p, was vying for top dog with Pacquaio over the superfeatherweight division and any idea that Khan could have beat him would be met with hysterics.
cut beat him in just about everyone's eyes except you and the khan fans.

Now he's just an old, little small man who Khan's promoter chose to get a legend on his record.
he got lucky & luck runs out.
Quote:
Isn't Marquez as old as Barrera? Isn't he as small?
A year from now Marquez will likely be coming to the end of his career and if Khan continues to improve and work on his defense with Freddie he could certainly be one of those that could potentially take over.
Who would have thought a couple years ago that Pacquaio would destroy De La Hoya, or that he would be the betting favourite going into a fight with Ricky Hatton?
On here people always talk about one fighter destroying another as if the gulf in class is colossal but it's just not the case.
Khan would still pose massive problems for anyone at lightweight, especially an aging Marquez who is at a clear natural size disadvantage.
I'm sure as long he keeps fighting people who move up to LW, have broken legs and one eye he'll look fantastic.
Quote:
Just because his punch resistence is supsect doesnt mean he's going to get blown away in 50 seconds every time he fights anyone world class.
giggles;D
Quote:
If he can use his height, reach and speed to keep Marquez at bay and prevent him from getting off he could cause all manner of problems for Marquez a year or so from now.
Marquez isn't superman, he struggled with Jimrex Jaca and Chris John. His fights with Casamayor, Pacquaio, Barrera and Juan Diaz were all absolute wars with both Pacquaio and Barrera dropping him and Juan Diaz rocking him on occasion.
But you all assume that Khan would just lie down and be counted out after 50 seconds becuase he lost to Prescott in that manner?
Khan absolutely has the potential to beat Marquez. He has the all the physical and youth advantages, he has the speed and natural size.
If he improves under Freddie Roach then a year or so from now and he could be ready for the truly world class.
Although by then Marquez will doubtless be showing signs of slipping and even if Khan beats him he'd get no credit for it here anyways.
Bilbo you really are taking the piss or trolling. I haven't decided on which:cool:

In layman's term, Team Khan will just wait for JMM to mature more...;D (take note, "mature more" and not "get older" :lolhaha: )

JMM would be able to beat khan when he is in his 40s
wont be able to run rings around him and destroy like he could do today - but he`d still be too powerful and skilled for amir.
Again not that im khan bashing. But JMM and Amir are worlds apart in talent!!
Re: Please people Khan...JMM...WTF
Khan vs any of the 3 LW Diazs would make more sense. Right now JMM is looking for a big payday. Him fighting Khan is impossible.
Re: Please people Khan...JMM...WTF
Fuck off Khan would beat Katsidis! Hey first to admit here that katsidis aint a great boxer nor is he the most talented. You wanna say if Earl can put Katsidis down then Khan can beat him then lets use that here and say if prescott can knock khan out then katsidis definitely can. Did you even watch the Casa fight with katsidis? Katsidis was winning that fight up until he got stopped but showed incredible heart and recovery abilities just to even come back in that fight. Is Khan more powerful than Casa? Does Khan have a better chin?
What makes anyone here think Katsidis would be beaten by Khan based on what they have seen? If anything, i think it shows that Khan would get knocked the fuck out. The barerra win proves nothing and to me he is still an outsider. Not even a contender.
Missy i definitely see your point in letting him fight JMM, complete and utter destruction. Khan would be retired after that fight, a beating to remember for sure.
