Prime Floyd beats him with ease. Danny Garcia beats him easier in rematch,
Cant see Danny laying a glove on him in a rematch. Khan wins a wide UD.
But you are right, its his speed that makes him class and witrhout that he has nothing.

I think Khan is B-level, at best. There's really nothing special about him other than speed.

Speed is enough but he is more than that. He is a top class fighter.

Olympic pedigree and experience at the world class level.

No, I mean like technical skills.
Re: Amir Khan boxing ability.
Khan has a lot. Amazing mechanics, balance, a great jab (head and body), a right straight and hook, a fantastic hook to the liver, foot speed, great punch selection... he's a technical marvel, really. His only flaw thus far has been his chin and, by extension, his tendency to get TOO aggressive and end up on the wrong end of a haymaker. He has amazing fluidity, he can throw from any angle and double up on the right hand or a hook like a prime Roy Jones (though, of course, there was only one Roy Jones). The guy's a stud, he's just made some tactical errors over the years and hasn't had the chin to recover from them.
