    I know I'm stating the obvious but that's so funny with Khan isn't it

    "How will the fight go ?"

    "All depends if the other guy hits him"

    Am trying to think of other fighters who were like this - big Frank. Wouldn't really put Hearns in the same category but there were similarities.

    And that's his excitement factor which has made him a fortune. Can't be bad. Blessed with talent and speed mind - but feather fisted for the most part.

    Big Frank and Tommy had their own bombs which could end in in their favour at any time mind. Khan was decision or nothing

    For some reason Khan-Cotto intrigues me, I think it would be a good action fight, granted I am betting Amir won't want to get right back in with a heavy hitter, but IMO that's a good matchup.

    There are some decent matches for him at 147 and 154, he can still get a belt. Khan vs Liam Smith in the UK?? Khan vs Kell Brook?? Khan vs Bradley??


    Speaking of Tim Bradley, what a fucking shame he wasn't around when Ricky Hatton was in his pomp, what a great fight they could have had at 140!

    I don't see Khan winning a title at 147. I think Spence, Brook, and Thurman would KO him.

    I think that he needs to go straight for Garcia, if he can't beat who I now think is a weaker champion then maybe he should just give up. I don't think it's worth taking the long road back he does not have time. He'll end up just becoming irrelevant with so many good welterweights already out there.

    No Kell Brook then? Wouldn't that fight sell?

    Get back in line. He tried to jump the shark and make up overnight the 'big star' status he has clamored for and felt he deserved for some time now. Khan doesn't have the armor or 9 lives to stay at 154. Honestly the welter division is stacked up high and he knew going into Canelo that he could rebound on name regardless of result. I just don't think it's the same and the build and momentum has to suffer a bit. Khan vs Berto would be nice style wise and convenient for promotion.

    I think Tyson Fury could be like that too.

    Khan is so bitter and twisted that he will not fight Brooks and give him a pay day.

    I think khan will target Garcia to avenge his loss.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
