Amir Khan: Manny Pacquiao Can't Knock Me Down!

[:::PSL:::]

Actually. Amir didn't do bad at all in this footage...

In fact, he owned Manny in that round.

I hear Buboy Fernandez saying "atras sa lubid".

Sounds to me they were training Manny to exchange while his back against the rope.

Holyshit. With the headgear?

He kinda did the Zab chicken dance.

[Jimanuel Boogustus]

Haha, he did the same thing against Prescot when he got wobbled by a jab, his legs did a funny little trip-rhythm.. Like a little tap dance or something?!

Khan definitely has 'happy feet'

[YIDDLE]

khan has a glass jaw so he should not tempt fate

[Hornfinger]

Khan won't mind getting back in the ring with prescott then.

Khan's use of the English language isn't the best but at the end of the day he's a boxer. He doesn't really do himself many favours when he opens his mouth but he's right about one thing. When he beats Maidaina, which he will, he won't get any credit for it. He'll make Maidaina look stupid and because of that people won't be able to accept that Khan is actually a very good boxer but with a big achilles heel, a glass jaw!! If anything, this makes him exciting to watch because you know he could go down in any fight. He'll school Maidaina and I wouldn't be surprised if he gets the KO.

I'm already giving him huge respect and tons of credits for taking on Maidana. But he won't certainly make Maidana look stupid.

If "school" means running away for full 12 rounds, then that is not the right difinitation.

What is the point, Prescott has lost twice, its like Hopkins fighting the first person that beat him years ago.

[Chrislfc17]

@ PSL..I'm sure a lot of people who are backing Maidaina in this fight and the Khan haters will say that Maidaina was over-hyped when Khan beats him. I'm not saying everyone will say that but I bet a lot do. When I say "school" I mean completely out-box the other fighter, which is what I think Khan will do. Maidaina really isn't nothing special, he can bang but he has limited boxing skills. Khan will box rings round him but like with most Khan opponents it's interesting because you know if one lands on his chin he could be taking a tumble.

He looks like a newborn giraffe that was learning how to walk, but stumbled.

But come on now, Pac is hardly going all out is he?

He was training for a particular situation and Khan was trying to apply what was set. Pac would have no agenda to destroy his sparring partner in this particular instance.

You know he could if he wanted to.

No he's not. He was listening and following every specific instructions and executing them right away. Pac would just wing it on his own if it was a real fight.

To Khan's credit Pac probably hasn't slaughtered him in sparring, but I do find it a really strange thing to bring up. Fair enough, maybe what he said about being drained at 135 is true. He is a tall lad after all, but he does seem to be going overboard seeing as his chin at 140 hasn't exactly been checked by anyone.

The Maidana fight is the first genuine challenge to the chin IMO. It should be interesting.
