By beating a 33 year-old Zab Juddah? Surely to win the Maidana fight in the way he had to was a much better performance,no?
I thought the madiana fight could easilly have been stopped when he was taking the big shots so in short no. It was a great fight though. "By beating a 33 year-old Zab Juddah?" - Since when has 33 been past it? Khan dominated from the start in what many thought would be a tough challenge for him.
Juddah was made to look poor by how dynamic Khan was - that should not be overlooked. The Maidana fight was impressive but more for the fact Khan showed he can take the best shots from the hardest punchers in that division and still do enough to win the fight. I can't recall anyone else flooring Maidana so early in a fight with a body punch before. I think Khan is becoming the real deal.
Always liked Khan personally but good to see he is winning people over! Will probably fight morales or Lucas Martin Matthysse, whichever wins the WBC title fight.
Here we go again. Eng/Brit boxing fan's are good at building up fighter's and quick to slate them when they fail. He is a decent fighter but he will be embarrassed if he ever has the ball's to fight Mayweather.
I agree Khan is becoming a world class boxer. I just don't believe beating a Zab Judah that clearly didn't want to be there and rolled over was the thing that proves that!
Surely there is nothing wrong losing to the 2nd best boxer in boxing at the moment? I doubt it would be an embarrassment either. I still think he would lose but could win some of the early rounds while Mayweather works his hand speed out. Hard to gauge where Mayweather is at though until he fights Ortiz.
Khans handspped has always been unbeleivable. Now he seems to have massive power in the body shots he will be a handful whoever he fights
There would be no shame at all in losing to Mayweather but I just find it funny the way he was treated by so called British boxing fan's after he lost to Prescott and now he's going to be P4P king.
This . The British public really are a fickle bunch when they were celebrating when Khan got knocked out by Prescott but now that Khan is top of his game, they are all supporting him.
He didn't want to be there after he felt the power of Khan's punching. The guy was holding a world title so just how **** could he really be? As for rolling over... ... he showed very little fight after being floored by the body shot that's true but perhaps you really should give Khan more credit for just how hard he's hitting these days.
Well as we've mentioned,Khan got tagged time and again flush against Maidana but he didn't shy away and throw the towel in did he? Khan was good against Juddah but no better,and he didn't need to be. Juddah bottled it. Plain and simple.
