WBA junior welterweight champion Amir Khan is split between two friends. Heavyweights David Haye and Audley Harrison are set to collide for the WBA heavyweight belt on November 13 at the MEN Arena in Manchester. When it comes down to it, Khan sides with Haye as being the winner of the contest.

Khan has a lot of respect for the boxing ability of Haye. He doesn't think most heavyweights are fast enough to catch him with a clean punch. Haye is quick on his feet and plays a lot of defense.
