He looked v v good. Could hear hunter screaming focus focus focus even in round 11. Fancy him to beat maya weather, but conversely think brooks will have his number, good fights coming up.
If not actually disgruntled, he was far from being gruntled. PG Wodehouse
In complete contrast to Alexander's trainer who didn't seem to impart any kind of game plan, or change of tactic despite it being obvious his man was losing. The most amazing though was that he didn't even realise it was about to be the last round when he was giving Alexander a pep talk. Seemed like an amateur to me. Khan did look very good.

Just can't see that happening. Sure he looked pretty good but he's not in Mayweather's class.
He's such a tool but he's got ability, he beat a good opponent on Saturday and he deserves a chance to step up. Personally I would rather see Manny v Mayweather but I think Khans speed could cause real problems
no way would he beat Mayweather , Khans chin is made of glass, would be a decent scrap though him and Brook and I think brook would beat him
And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot
That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles

Yeah but Mayweather couldn't knock my 7 year old out, his game is all about running away from people and counter punching with point scoring hits. Khan though is quick, very quick, so he might be able to test Mayweathers defences. I still think he will lose but I think his style would make it interesting.

We all know Mayweather is a counter puncher and IMO his defence is the best that the sport has ever seen. If you can't get tagged it's pretty hard to lose.
If Khan's speed can cause Mayweather issues then it should make for an intriging and close fight. Mayweather can deal quite easily with power but speed may be more of a challlenge as he ages.
Khan doesn't have a glass jaw as his fight with Madina proved. He does have a loose mind though and can be rattled. This attributed to his losses to both Prescott and Garcia and the loss to Peterson was a farce.Training under Roach and Hunter has improved him to world class level and Khan does deserve respect.
I think the route should be Mayweather v Pacquico/Khan v Brook in May, then if they both win a meeting in Vegas in September. Politics will win out and I do suspect Floyd may want to duck Khan, literally.
Agreed I don't think he wants any part of Brook either , shame as it would be an intriguing fight , promoters should be doing whatever they can to make this happen next summer Brook can mix it where IMHO Khan although quick in hand speed lacks the discipline to see a fight out and has a suspect jaw

Depends on what night he catches froch on Weaver , De Gale has improved since losing to Groves, and I can see chunky getting a world title before groves does , if anyone can give Froch a good fight it may be De gale and I wouldn't brt against him causing an upset but he needs to step up and fight someone like Kessler (on the way down but still a name) before he takes on the cobra

Ive only followed degale career loosely but i didnt think he was anywhere near Froch level yet. Not sure Froch would entertain degale i always thought he would fight Andre Ward again then retire
No. Even at this age Froch is a class apart, he got complacent in his first fight with Groves, he won't make the same mistake again, although he doesn't want either if it's not in Vegas. DeGale for me is better than your average super middle but well below the very best in that category. Would be good to see though, probably the best SM fight available until Andre Ward can get back in the ring.
I could see Degale beating Froch on the right night as PP said , Froch has been in quite a few wars and they have a habit of catching up with fighters when that hapens they catch up quickly
It's not rubbish, watch his fights, he doesn't have the power to knock out somebody with any semblance of a jaw. He doesn;t need to because his defence is amazing, but his fights are really boring and I don;t think Khan would have to worry about getting KO'd, just beaten on points.
Also that ratio of decisions to KO's is higher than average, I think only one other fighter at Jr Middle has a higher % of points victories over KOs.

His defence has got better but his lateral movement still leaves much to be desired.He's good defending back and forth but that's it.A concussive puncher will get through once or twice and that's the danger.
