Eh? He is lightweight.

In fact, it is impressive step-up.

Well it is a step up for kahn and it is not a bad fight much better than his last, but limond doesn't have much power, hopefully he will fight someone with some a bit of a punch next.

I don't want Khan to be rushed. I think that is best opponent in his pro career. If you look at limond record carefully, he have fought some very good opponents with excellent ko's record.

This year, Khan will fight Limond, Earl, Thaxton for sure.

YEP.. I knew IT.. I never heard of HIM.... but I figured before I even looked that his KO% would be somewhere around the Typical Kahn oppenent average of 13.2%
8 Ko's in 29 fights= Another feather fist,,

I am telling you Khan is Glass jawed.. and they are going to protect him and make as much money as they can HYPING him up.. before someone with a little pop Exposes his China..

I wanna see him fight Earl, think that would be a good test. Thaxton would be interesting but think Khan would destroy him straight down the middle. Be good to give his chin a test if Thaxton can land a big hook though!

Clever choice really. Gets him a title, steps up the game a little, but the easiest possible title fight out there.

id like to see khann vs scott lawton

This aint a bad choice of opponant for Khan. Reading the link, it will be a step up. Hopefully, this guy will throw a few puches back at Khan.
