Comments Thread For: Hunter: Khan Should Never Get Sucker Punched Again

[Box-Office]

Yep, that clinching he's implementing into Khant's training is gonna be crucial on the inside!

That was Collazo. Go watch Khan-Alexander.

But he needs to fight the right opponents too, and Haymon doesn't seem to want to let him do that.

Have you ever thought or wondered why that might be ???[/QUOTE]

Yes, but I just can't figure it out.

I mean, Haymon usually makes the most exciting and competitive matchups for his fighters - Wilder vs Molina, Stevenson vs Bika, Garcia vs Salka - all good, tough, fan pleasing fights.

Then he goes and matches Khan with Algieri? Beats me.

As good as Khans reseme is, of those guys, were any considered the best at the time Khan fought them? Barrera is the best name on there in terms of accomplishments and he was 10years removed from top level competition. How many prime fighters has Khan fought and how has he faired? I find it hard to believe Khans entire record is a sham but upon a closer look, it appears he has a padded reseme. Another thing, its hard to take Khantrrds serious as "boxing fans" when they say Khans the best.,.bcuz his opposition level is anything but.

I think Khan is an elite fighter offensively, his weakness is his chin paired with his own bravado.

It's a completely true statement that he is extremely talented and his style is probably the worst match up for Floyd to take. Floyd gets respect if he ends up fighting Khan, it's a legitimately tough fight for Floyd given how they match up.

Hopefully Khan can stop Algieri, I would think if Pac can have him all over the place the way he did then Khan should be able to stop him outright given his size and length. I expect Khan to look good but I don't trust Amir to not blow it somehow either.. He just seems unpredictable under the spotlight to me.

Khan is like the 2003/2004 version of Wladmir Klitchsko, we all know he's got the goods but then it's "WTF, how does this keep happening?" when it comes to his chin.

[HanzGruber]

When did he get sucker puncher

[wlliam]

It wasn't good enough for either and that's laughable logic

If Khan beats Algieri, that puts him in the same league as Pac

Does your throat not get sore from sucking Khan's **** so much or is it not big enough to hit there?

You dedicate your time on here to one boxer and we know its not for boxing reasons. I won't apologise for being annoyed that Amir Khan is acting like a b1tch. Sorry it upsets you.

Not sure how I am sucking his **** I never said this was a good fight in the first place, but I realise its a safe path to a floyd fight in September. That is something you can't let go of yet you're ok with Brook fighting Gavin and not Rios in May/June. I don't ask for an apology I just think its a bit sad that you sit on this site all day spouting the same crap on every Khan thread. I was merely asking a Q do you not get bored?

Something which you slaughtered Bradley for years for doing, didn't you?

Khan's just a sucker for the left hook.

Hes a sucker for any left hand in general. When hes engaging, specifically. If Alexander knew what a check hook was, that wouldve been the money shot.

Alexander is a southpaw, his hook would be a -right- hand

While I'm not defending Khan for the Algieri fight , his defense is not nearly as bad as made out to be here.

His problem isn't technical per se , it's mental.
He uses to get reckless and stay in trading range much longer than he should, ending up getting hit by '******' punches.

If what Virgil means is that Khan shouldn't get hit by those shots, then I agree.
