Khan: I’ll Be Stronger, My Chin More Durable at 147 - Boxing News
Will he be better at 147 or will he get steamrolled easier?
so the reason he's been killing himself at 140 and making himself more chinny is???
line up to fight Kell Brook when he moves up? :cool:
Well it was certainly the truth with Cotto. Perhaps Khan should have moved up 2 years ago when he first talked about it. Perhaps deciding to stay at 140 and get some retribution actually made matters worse.
Of course Mayweather wants to fight him, it is another easy win
If you watch the video I posted in this thread I think its clear Khan doesnt want a fight with Brook at all.Quote:

If higher weight = stronger chin then khan better move up to cruiserweight and quickly with his chin being so poor right now
on a serious note I cant see it -
um it's Khan who's been running his mouth off. It's another easy win because Mayweather is that much better ;DQuote:

Maybe we just don't know how weak Khan feels at 140, maybe he thinks feels he'll be stronger at the higher weight.
Maybe he's just a fool???
he should stay at 140 lb and beat the best before moving up, it is one fight.
How is khan getting away with all of this.?!Quote:

Khan was doing okay against garcia until garcia hit him back.
Virgil, golden boy and khans family have told him to fight a weak ass opponent at 147 and then he gets the mayweather fight.
The system stinks.
He must be on all your minds, because you keep talking about him, that makes him a star to my way of thinking. I don't know about him and the hall of fame, but anything is possible.Quote:

He's full of shit as usual. He just fought at 143 and got rocked several times by a career lightweight. He started out at lightweight and got wobbled, they moved him down to 130 to see if he could take punches better but he got flattened by Willie Limond if I remember correctly, back up to 135 where he got sparked, up to 140 where he got sparked again and then looking rubbish at 143. I'd love to see him fight a big puncher at 147. :)
He's not getting away with anything. It's just nobody really gives a fuck what Khan doesQuote:

One fighter I'm pretty sure Khan will never share a boxing ring with is Lucas Matthysse.
Every time he gets in the ring he goes back to fighting like he is on the olympic stage and forgets his game plan that he and his trainer has worked on for months prior to each fight. Ask Freddie Roach
His tactics and fight style never change and he goes back to his predictable speed boxing hanging chin out every time he gets into a bit of an exchange with all his opponents.
Maybe fighting at his natural weight might help him but unless he changes tactics i think we will just see the same result.
Khan has done a huge duck in avoiding lucus and danny garcia.
Mayweather/khan should not be allowed until khan beats both of these guys.
"Kell Brook is not a big enough name". "No one knows who he is"
So- "I'm sorry to all the fans". He desn't wat any part of Brook.
I dislike Khan even more every time he opens his mouth
"I'm a superstar"
what a fucking tool.
Will be sparked in next 3 fights. Floyd probably his best option as can probably go distance
Jimmy Saville will be pleased with your way of thinkingQuote:

If it was down to Khan he would get in there tomorrow. His management may well think differently.Quote:

So stupid it's laughable.....
I think that's the first time I've seen a fighter accused of ducking someone he fought less than a year ago ;DQuote:

This is Khans down fall, he is good fighter but will never be a great fighter, in his own front
room maybe,;D but in the land of boxing no way.
He keeps telling us he has a good chin WERE IS IT,! hit him right down he goes, he spends more
time on the floor than my rug by the fire.!;D

Khan is many things, deluded, a few hairs short of a lions mane, not quite on planet earth, but one thing you can not accuse him of is cowardice or running from Garcia. That is looney talk.
Khan will fight anyone, that's half his problem.
In no particular order.
Khan beats judah
Peterson beats khan
Garcia beats judah
Judah beats mattyhsse
Mattyhsse beats peterson
Garcia beats khan
Garcia is the man to beat in this divison to take the top spot.
There are no more chances.Quote:

We expect khan to fight garcia or mattyhsse next.
Lets see what happens.
Khan has the speed and the skill to achieve wins over both fighters so lets see if this can be achieved.
So Khan is fighting a b level welterweight champion rather than fight an A rated light welterweight puncher. Makes sense.Quote:
