Ok, here goes, but forgive me, it may be long.
1. "Khan deserving respect, willing to fight anyone" - I respect his business sense,getting £9 million for a fight you're supposed to lose and still having a major payday is Christmas come early. He wasn't willing to fight Brook or Garcia at his supposed weight for World Titles, and hasn't fought anybody with power since Garcia sent him to sleep.
2. "Chinny bullshit." - Yes, everybody does get tagged and indeed floored. What Khan's problem is, is his natural reaction/instinct. He doesn't regroup, he fights with no defence and no brain when he's been buzzed and then gets put to sleep. If you've been decked , you should hold, smother your opponent's work, whatever you need to do to buy time.
Khan in the 10 th against Maidana when he was hurt, starts calling Maidana on as he is falling backwards losing his balance.
3. "Massive points win for Khan" - if Khan is such a skilled fighter, how come he couldn't stop Algieri or Peterson from keeping coming forward?
4. "most entertaining fighter of the last decade"- really? I never found him particularly entertaining against Algieri, Alexander, Collazzo, Diaz and Molina? Infact he only offers entertainment value when he's being sparko'd.
Thanks for your time.
