No more KO's for Khan

[OumaFan]

He's never seemed like much of a puncher to me

[Fenster]

I think his power is underrated.

Obviously not a devastating puncher but hits plenty hard enough to stop anyone without a granite chin.

I agree Khan has a good dig on him , however his weak chin means he will be over cautious and gun-shy to hit consistently with full power.

He is'nt a big puncher but his speed of his punches and the volume he throws could stun you and have an affect as the rounds go by.

[Master]

The move will only make it less likely that he will stop world class fighter. He is not ready for Bradley, Holt and Witter. He is in the third division with Salita, Malignaggi and Urango.

[littlebif]

I would like to see him in with Holt he just lost a decision to Bradley so i think it would be a good messure of how good Khan is.If Holt can land on Khans chin it will be good night though.But Khan has the ability to outbox him i think it would make for a good fight.

[DatsiK]

Of course he'll have more KO's. Not everyone he fights will be as defensive as Kotelnik and will hopefully throw more punches, therefore leaving Khan with a better chance to land punches. He's a pretty decent counter puncher and he also has decent power. I don't think he'll get alot of flash KO's but he has the speed and the accuracy to force TKO's against anyone.

No i'm serious. Serious.

Didn't your friend Scott Lawton say how suprised he was at Khan's power?

How funny of you, someone I know got stopped by Khan.

This must also make Thaxton & Murray 'world class'.

To say you're suprised to me is the same as getting hurt by the punch you don't see which invariably does most damage. Khan's speed was more the issue.

Well it is kind of ironic.

Lawton definitely said he hits hard...

“Wow, he was better than I expected,” Lawton, the English champion, said. “I knew he was going to start quick, but I didn’t realise how hard he hits. I asked someone to take a look for my rib, I think it’s in row Z. He hits a hard body punch. I still feel a bit winded now. I’ve never boxed a kid who I thought I could never beat, but I could never beat Amir Khan.”

Straight from the horses mouth

Timothy Bradley is supposed to fight Nate Campbell i thought?

Either way, Khan would barely be talked about if this wasn't a largely populated board by the Brits.. he's in a weak weight class and has already lost..

he should fight paulie malignaggi.. two lighting fast feather fisted boxers.. If paulie knocked him out i'd jump through the roof with excitement.

I don't think that's true Amir Khan has been mentioned on all major broadcast channels in America, HBO, Showtime, ESPN Friday Night Fights are always mentioning his name when referring to either prospects, or to the lightweight and junior welterweight divisions.

He's far and away one of the most well known prospects in the world, if he wasn't he wouldn't have had the bartering leverage to not only get Marco Antonio Barrera in the ring but to make him come over here.

After Hatton, Calzaghe, Haye and now Froch, Khan is easily our best known boxer overseas.

If/when he fights in the US (most likely his next fight) there will be a lot of interest stateside.

If he wins a couple more fights he's easily our biggest PPV attraction since Hatton, he'd eclipse Froch and Calzaghe without a doubt.

And before people accuse me of making another fanboy posting, none of this is at all to do with whether he is any good or deserving of the publicity, only that he clearly has the necessary appeal on both sides of the atlantic to sell tickets and get people talking.

After hatton, calzaghe, haye, froch there is khan.. big deal lol..

i still think he's overrated.. dudes got skill, but is a whole lot of hype.

And of course he has been mentioned on all major channels, and in all magazines.. so is peter manfredo.. im just saying that there are always threads about him, and blaming that on the environment.. take that as you wish.

Khan does have better defense now but you'll never know what happen next in a boxing match.
