    Any credibility it had left has now well and truly gone to the dogs with the addition of this chump.
    It follows the linear rules. I don't like it any more than you do, but that's how it goes. The best fighter in the division isn't always the champion.

      Kahn is perhaps the most single over rated fighter EVER. The kid can kinda punch, thats about it. He stands with his feet about 14 feet apart and flat footed, doesn't move to well, doesn't have the greatest defense. He is like Naseem Hamed without the natural athletic ability.

      He is a prime example of what Frank Warren does best. Build fighters into names against nobody, then cash out on them in a big fight.

          not to mention his whiskers aint the best, willie limond had him in a world of trouble and he couldn't punch his way out of a wet paper bag

            I'm not sold on him yet but 72 seconds against earl was impressive. I dont think thaxton will do much better. Lets wait and see until after he fights for the european title, hopefully someone can really test his beard to see if he is packing china. He's not ready for a world title not for at least a year or 10 meaningful fights

              You don't think that the Ring would lose credibility if it started stripping its titles off champions just because it doesn't agree with the decision?
