    To be fair, he has handspeed, range, and heart. But yeah, he has almost no skill to speak of as a boxer at this level, no ring IQ, and shit defense.

    mikE really is a full blown retarD.

    Norris was one of the most fluid combination punchers of the last 25 years.

    Khan is the sloppiest combination puncher to ever make it onto the world class.

    Play in traffic MiKe.

    On ESB, Khan is being compared to Hearns.............

    Apparently you can if you have the IQ of a fencepost, like mikE.

    Adonis is a scary dude. That would be a tough one for chunky. Not sure when the fight was with Bonsante, but that straight left that caught him was lethal. He has good power.

    Now Tim Bradley looks like he made the right move after all. Blowing Khan out proves fuck all, and Bradley is now in a position to tell Khan where to go and demand major fiscal "reward" for his "win" over Pac.

    Bonsante is one of the stupidest-looking and stupidest-fighting guys I have ever seen.

    His reaction was hilarious. He looked out for the count after going down, then after the ref waved his hands he gets up and starts protesting to the ref for a while. Was funny. Chunky would put up a better fight.

    Bonsante. :lol:

    Prize-Shiter and Conpretender shows are to boxing what "American Idle" and "X Factotum" are to singing and talent. They don't count.

    I would take that bet, but Chunky didn't accept the fight last month.

    Hopefully Adonis doesn't get stretched by a bum again before the fight happens...

    I doubt it happens. Chunky doesn't want any.

    Yeah I mentioned the Theopane fight earlier in the thread I think. Angel Garcia has a selective memory when he decides to rip on Euro's :lol:

    Do you think Theophane, almost 25 months on from that close Garcia loss would beat Khan?

    Theophane thinks he punches harder than his record suggests but I doubt it. Its a styles thing. To beat Khan you do really need a bit of zip. For openers, I don't think Khan would go near Theophane at this point in time. What is happening to Theophane and Olejusun is criminal.......they could probably match Khan blow for blow but neither is known outside of their own gyms.

    Theophane is a tricky customer, but he certainly doesn't have a good dig on him. I think Khan would struggle with him, but i'd definitely favour Khan to win.

    Agreed.

    Norris had speed, power, defense, combination punching, and good footwork.

    Norris' decision making wasn't always the best(1st Brown fights and the Santana bouts).

    Khan has size, athleticism, and good hand speed, but its like he can't harness his talents to get the most of them.

    Norris is suddenly levels beyond Khan because Khan just got stopped by a fairly mediocre fighter, not because he actually was levels beyond Khan.

    The world isn't getting brighter because there aren't any clouds out today, but that's how a lot of people around here apparently view the world.
