    I think Khan could do very well, Broner was getting caught a lot last night, Khan has the range and speed to take advantage of that more

    Khan has a good style to beat Broner.

    Pretty intriguing to be honest. The first half of the fight when they're still fresh would be an awesome display of speed. I think Broner would shut it down in the mid to late rounds, but Rees' ability to land nearly 100 punches last night makes this an interesting proposition. It would also fit in the arc of Broner's career, as he really needs to start putting some names on the resume & Khan would be a nice addition. I like the idea.

    Smaller, 135lb-esque opponent with an unknown chin and no real pressing game? Khan W12 by McFlurry.

    You see, Khan's very mobile on his feet and Broner's very stationary.

    You see, Khan's defense and chin are very shitty and Broner has power and a lot of handspeed.

    Khan has great handspeed and better footwork. If he jabs and moves Broner can't settle.

    Broner hits hard enough to put Khan out of his misery.

    Amir would probably start well early but Broner would settle in and start to time him.

    Broner TKO 7

    Khan's footwork is pretty terrible my friend.

    And that last sentence is the same thing Khan was expected to do to Peterson and Garcia.

    Khan would win some of the early rounds but he would get mauled and hurt on the inside.

    Broner late TKO would be my pick.

    Broner has great timing though, but he's in one spot a lot. If Hunter could come up with a way of improving certain aspects of Khan's style, they could come up with a good fight plan. I agree with you on the Peterson/Garcia fights of course, but now they have happened it's time to learn from them. I just think Broner would stuggle with his constant movement but of course he would settle and time Khan, but Khan could easily win the early-middle rounds.

    Khan isn't gonna change at this stage. Hunter will never be able to fix Khan's 3 main flaws; his lack of D, lack of IQ, and lack of chin.

    You can't expect Hunter to be a miracle worker for Khan just because Ward is so good.

    Hunter has been working with Ward since Dre was a kid, and Ward is just 5x the talent Khan is, with a FAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR higher ring IQ.

    Khan is a retard, and if you expect Hunter to turn him into a boxing scientist, you're in for a disappointment.

    Khan-Broner would be kind of predictable IMO. Khan does well for the first few rounds, throwing his bullshit flurries and running away. But once Broner walks him down, and starts connecting, things turn ugly for Conny.

    That sounds about right, but it would be so funny if Khan was the one to beat him and I have a gut feeling that Broner struggles more than most would expect him to. Broner has said before too that he's a fan of Khan.

    It Wouldn't Surprise REED if Khan Pocketed More Rounds, but it's INCONCEIVABLE to Think he'd Last 12 w/Out FEELING Broner's Power @ Some Point...& Before Anybody References Maidana, Broner has SPEED to Accentuate his Power...Not Only Would he Hit Khan Hard, he'd Hit Khan w/Shots he DOESN'T See Coming...

    Khan has Perhaps THE WORST Punch Resistance of Any World Class Fighter...Sorry, but a Guy that CAN'T Take a Punch WON'T Beat Adrien Broner....

    I agree with a lot of that. Khan's boxing skill always gets lost in the "chin" comments. He's got the hands to give Broner problems, but Broner's willingness to trade & his underrated punching power would eventually take its toll against Khan IMO.

    If he can hang on till the end A La Maidana, Khan would win.

    What HELPED Khan in the Maidana Fight is Marcos' TELEGRAPHED Power...The Type of Shit you Can Somewhat Brace For...Not Much VARIETY in Maidana's Attack...

    REED Doesn't Think Garcia Hits as HARD as Maidana, Shot for Shot, but Garcia Caught an UNSUSPECTING Khan...w/Broner's HANDSPEED, he'd Eventually Do Likewise...

    The thing is, Broner isn't the type to press the issue like Maidana and Garcia so it would be interesting to see how he'd switch it up if Khan starts bagging rounds. Broner would be hit with shots he doesn't see coming too (he was hit with a few last night), and getting hit by Khan is different to being hit by Gavin Rees.

    I've never seen Broner fight with anything like the aggression of Peterson, Garcia, Maidana vs Khan. I'm not sure his ego would let him take that kind of blue collar game plan

    He might beat Khan anyway on account of Khan being shit.....but styles favour Khan.

    Khan is dumb.....you get beat by bum ass Lamont Peterson or whatever...and be any good...Khan knows his chin is SHIT..but he will go in winging arm punches and get caught up.

    I agree, but the thing is I can't see Broner bulling his way inside as is the most effective way to fight Khan. That's just not the type of fighter he is. He's more of a pot shotter/counter puncher. He'd hurt Khan and do the classier work, but unless he KO'd Khan, I simply think Khan would mindlessly flurry his way to winning more rounds, with teh rangez and teh handspeedz.
