Amir Khan may have the speed, but he doesn't punch like Manny Pacquiao. He doesn't have Floyd Mayweather Jr's defense. He doesn't have anywhere near either guys chin, and he can be hurt to the body as Michael Gomez showed.
I think it depends on how Ricky Hatton does in the early rounds, if he can get past the early flurries by Amir Khan. I full expect Ricky Hatton to give Amir Khan a beating to the body and stop him in about the 8th round.
Im suprised people are picking Amir Khan so easily, when he has such a fragile chin. Beating an old undersized MAB who was a bloody mess in the opening seconds, who didn't even have a chance to get into the fight. Plus the fight should of been No-Conest, didn't really impress me at all.
