If Khan loses, is it over?

My point being that he is only 22. That's young, not yet the man years, the peak years. How many fighters kick off from age 27+? A loss will harm Amir, but may not end his career as a world title level fighter. He'll just have to work his way up. Opinions? if roach can't turn his career around, then its over. that said, he's chinny, so he can get KTFO anytime so he'll continue.

If he loses, he might as well retire and become a bollywood actor. They are all named Khan anyways.

Kotelkin lacks 1 punch KO power. I feel if Khan can avoid being caught by a flurry, he should win this.

He won't lose by decision. He'll lose by either, TKO, KO or a cut stoppage. i think he could. he'll take the first 4 or 5 rounds then Kotelnik could start figuring him out, and could even drop him like i said it'll be terrible for Khan to be outboxed in this fight, as that image of him being "the perfect fighter cursed by a glass win" will be shattered and his fanbase will lose a lot of faith

Lets hope he losses bad and I'll stop seeing his face plastered all over Sky Sports for 6months before each of his fights! Over rated hype job just gets on my nerves. Hes ok, but not as bloody great as the media seem to make out, and thats what pisses most people off, especially actual boxing fans.

I have spent the last hour watching Kotelnik fights. He has a sound defence, but it quite mechanical and slow. Not much power, but excellent accuracy.

he must beat Kotelnik. Kotelnik is arguably the weakest champion out there right now. If he can't beat Kotelnik, he might as well quit boxing. I know he will destroy Kotelnik though. Speed, speed, speed and speed. Kotelnik won't be able to hit what he can't see. No way is Kotelnik the worst world champion. He is a very good boxer, and underrated by many. I think he would give any champion at 140 except Pacquaio, a good fight.

I don't think his boxing career will be over, but maybe his five minutes of fame would be Personally I think the worst case scenario for Khan this weekend is having Kotelnik box his socks off for 12 straight rounds. That'd do him sooo much more harm than another quick KO loss I reckon. How many more Sky PPVs is he signed up for? and can they sever the deal at any time?

If his poor chin is exposed again i think it would be hard to go on, that said, he's very young and Roach can make him better on defense, so i can definitely see him after this fight even if he's KO'd

if he gets schooled..i think hes over in the top lvl competition..he already been ko'd and technical boxing is all he had.

he done if he loses he will have lost twice in his last four fights the only chance of becomin a champ is when everybody relevant leaves 135 or 140 maybe he should fight ortiz as a pro...call it a comeback fight for both just like diaz-katsidis ortiz would beat the shit outta him though that wont even be funny

If he loses badly or by KO, he's thru.

He will just have to work his way back up. I can imagine Khan winning a world title and then losing it by KO soon after. Rince and repeat until he retires. But he will become better and better the longer he trains with Roach. There have been guys with good careers who lack ace chins. Hearns, Floyd Patterson etc.

Another brutal KO would send his stock crashing like Enron. But a close loss, a good show, and Amir just works his way back up. 22 is so young.

If Khan loses, its not impossible for him to still achieve his goal of world champion. But personally if he loses by KO, I would recommend that he call it a day (only if he has serious high goals in the sport) since he seems to have money, and he's young enough to try something else. But if he's happy touting around on english domestic level...

If he looses its just the matter how he looses! if its again shown that he cant take a punch then this could be the end!
