Khan/Guerrero is a damn good fight. Guerrero has the capability of making the fight look ugly as fukk. He would definitely have his moments. I'd favor Khan, but a Guerrero win isn't out of the question.

This may be a weird comparison, but Amir Khan reminds me of Wladimir Klitschko, as far as his journey as a fighter. Wladimir is obviously at a different point in his career & has pretty much mastered his craft though.
It's an odd as comparison but hear me out. 2 highly talented fighters that needed direction
Both guys came in the game very offensively talented. Had early defeats, which were necessary for them to become the fighters they are today. Made both aware of their chin issues. Both needed to go to trainers to help accentuate their positives & minimize their deficiencies.
This comparison is valid if you feel Amir is a special fighter. I've always felt the talent was there, he just needed the right direction. Amir is really that nice. He's just annoying as hell.
All they got to do is make him boring. Jab, fight tall, clinch, protect chin
As for Floyd, i don't think he's beating anyone easy his last few fights. He's gonna need to bite down, grind, & earn those victories imo.

That nikka news said broner had good footwork (trainer teaches you that) then said it's it's the trainers fault he doesn't use it (trainer has no control over this)
You know what's funny? It's that when people are gonna say some fraud stuff.....they never tag the person in it they are referring to
What REALLY happened was @alpo had said "smh....if Broner would just move his feet....." to which I responded with:
How would that NOT be on his trainer, that he can't get/convince his study to stop standing flat floored for long periods of time or spreading his feet so far apart that he can't back out and escape incoming fire power?
You fight the way you train
So apparently, this is what Mike Stafford lets AB get away with in training camp and it shows up in the fights.If About Billions moved his feet more, and boxed more (instead of trying to walk everyone down) he would be more efficient in his efforts. He already has great speed, quickness, and reflexes...but what does it matter if you're gonna be a stationary target for one of the bigger punchers you run across?
That C level fighter tweeted himself to million views. Like this dude isn't the dumbest fukk in the world. He's not smart enough to be elite
He's still more known, a bigger draw, and more anticipated by the public than Madonna (who's ducking the rematch worse than he's ducking Keith Thurman)
Madonna must know that without those Ariza Shakes, smelling salts, and the illegal gloves, that he's going back shortly to being a WCW Thursday Night Thunder mid-carder again

Cotto's Adviser Does Not Rule Out Mayweather Clash
http://www.boxingscene.com/cottos-adviser-not-rule-out-mayweather-clash--85776
Gaby Peñagarícano, legal advisor to WBC middleweight champion Miguel Cotto, makes it clear that there is nothing concrete to the recent twitter announcement of Oscar de la Hoya, President of Golden Boy Promotions, that a deal is practically done for a Cotto-Canelo showdown on May 2nd, Cinco De Mayo weekend.
'No. That is not correct. There is no agreement yet," Penagaricano said.
Talks for this bout will take several weeks but according to Peñagaricano they have not ruled out a potential rematch with Floyd Mayweather Jr.
"The reality is that there is no agreement yet. None. For any fight. We are in talks, but an announcement that we reached an agreement for that fight [with Canelo] - it is not true. And a fight with Mayweather has certainly not been ruled out," Penagaricano said.
Even that date is up in the air, because there is still talk of a fight with Manny Pacquiao and Mayweather for the May date. Freddie Roach trains both Pacquiao and Cotto. One fight has to be ruled out to determine what Roach is going to do.
"That is a factor, but the fight of Pacquiao and Mayweather does not see real at all," he said. "In short, there is still no agreement for a fight between Cotto and Canelo. If there will be or won't be, we will know later on. The talks remain in progress."

You the WOAT and GOAT stan at the same time
Why would I need to tag you, you're in this thread everyday
Stafford cant do shyt if AB dont care, he didnt want the philly shell and that ape still used it
Lol @ u still complaining about smelling salts. If that punch had knocked out maidana it woulda been illegal anyways
seemorecizzy
Superstar
but he isnt
i see your comparision
but in three of his last four wins, khan has fought bums and even got floored
and the devon alexander fight came one year too late but i guess its still a respectable win
let him beat thurman,brooks, guerrero, bradley before we jump to those conclusions
before alexander would have to go back to what 2010?2011? as the last time time khan had a respectable win over a respectable opponent (maidana? zab?)
the potential is there but thats it
seemorecizzy
Superstar
khan and ghost can go either way
i dont see khan standing a chance against mayweather then or not
we shall see
Stafford cant do shyt if AB dont care, he didnt want the philly shell and that ape still used it
Adrien Broner was flat footed and stood with his legs far apart going back to as early as his fight against Fernando Quintero.....and he wasn't even using the Shoulder Roll at that early point of his career
Stafford is to blame for that. Watch any Adrien Broner training video and you NEVER see him working on his footwork ever. That's on your trainer, because again, you fight the way you train
Lol @ u still complaining about smelling salts. If that punch had knocked out maidana it woulda been illegal anyways
Was it illegal? I don't recall AB getting docked a point
No Ariza Shakes = no win for Marcos "Aldo Montoya" Maidana once he stops running from the rematch
