Locche wasn't much of a hitter so he probably wouldn't KO Khan, and Khan ain't too shabby as far as Boxing skill goes so he'd make it somewhat competitive, but Locche would win comfortably.

That's a very good opposition !

Amir Khan is a great technician and I consider him to be still a pretty underrated fighter. Sadly he never had quite the chin or the championship quality to make a lot of mistakes during his fights. Nicollino Locche for what I know had a decent enough chin for what I know of (At least he took those 3 hooks at the end of the 6th round against Fuji really well ... The only ones he did take in the whole fight I believe)

We don't have a lot of clean material for Locche and that's a shame because the man was a master. I believe that the night he beat Fuji to win the light-welterweight championship he was the greatest. To make the Japanese world champion quit out of frustation and exhaustion at home you gotta be some fast and smart mf.

Locche has a built-in radar for punches in his brain, he is a super-human to me. Despite all of Khan abilities I really can't give him any chance to score a lot against Fuji and there's no way he will KO him with a lucky combination.

Great styles match. I think Locche would win a close decision. He was great at having elusive head movements. His long left hook was an interestingly effective punch.
