No offence to scott lawton but what a load of ****. Thaxton even offered a fight with a third party covering his pay and they still didn't take it.

Amir Can't. Chinny. Very chinny.

However Lawton isn't a puncher so maybe Amir Can't will look good again. I look forward to seeing him getting retired when he steps up in class - like Nas.

Very disappointing, I know he's young and new to the pro ranks and all of that jazz, but this is a step down in competition.

Thaxton fought Lawton in his last fight. If Khan can destroy Lawton, and fight Lee Meager in December. Perhaps his next two fights in 2008 could be against Graham Earl and finally Jon Thaxton.

This is an easier fight than his last which shows everyone that team Khan aren't very confident about their boy's chin.
