    Khan looks good when hes in with southpaws but none of them fast start like this guy. Manny's wick could be getting a little short on candle so who knows. I dont see this working out to well for Khan (style wise) unless Manny has lost a couple of steps or Khan can land something heavy right off the bat.
    I keep thinking about Algieri. Who knows, like you say Manny could be slipping.

    I think khan would be too difficult for PAC Man after his injury, I think Manny will try and fight someone easier.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    True enough. That needs to be taken into account but that was after a brilliant performance against Devon and the let down of not getting his number called for the lottery. I think Khan is a little fragile upstairs. He probably figured after Provo and Manny the guy would have nothing left. Chris is a tough out though even though Manny pin cushioned him. That fight almost looked a little scripted but I'll put down the tin foil hat

    Khan looked good against Collazo and exceptional against Alexander who are both southpaws but Manny is no counter puncher like those 2 waiting on mistakes. Khan does not like to be rushed and I'm sure that he will be at a rate he has never seen especially if Manny does not have the same tank.
    But if he can establish something right out of the gate because he's expecting it then you never know.
    He cant fight off the back foot and wont be getting off the floor 3 times like Marquez before he establishes something. I hope they can get it done. Great fight especially if Khan can make it through the first few rounds.

    According to The Sun ex world champion Khan is helping refugees in Greece. His celebrity media person is obviously not synced up with his sports media person.

    It was hard for me to take the Alexander fight seriously. Such an awful looking event but props to Khan. I'd love to see Manny and Khan get it on. Another PPV I can waste money on. Wouldn't be an easy fight for either of these guys unless Manny comes back with power.

    The stay busy fight should be Kell Brooks.

    That would be interesting even though Marquez would be stretching it a bit thin. Personally I thought he should have retired after boarding Manny.
