    i recently rewatched khan/limond. he had amateur problems against someone like limond who stood right in front of him.
    would think warrens going to dodge katsidis and is joking about fighting juan diaz.
    katsidis would be safer but still dangerous for the euro hyped khan.

      Wank Warren says Thaxton has priced himself out of the fight, he is not a £300,000 fighter, and Khan is to good for the British title and does'nt need it, lets see what comes from the Thaxton camp, a completely diffrent story me thinks.

        Watch his 2 fights after that. I reckon he could beat Katsidis but not Juan yet

          I don't think Khan is euro-hyped. He won a silver medal at the Olympics when he was 17, which is testament to special talent. Has had a decent career thus far, and is actually moving along quite nicely. He stood infront of Limond because he didn't think Limond had any power. I think Khan is doing okay adapting to the pro-game he is sitting down on his punches, and with his speed and at 5'11 he holds significant advantages at lightweight. Right now Juan Diaz gets him out of there late. But Katsidis is an entertaining fighter with great power but skillwise he isn't on Khan's level. Don't fool yourself that Warren doesn't know this. He wouldn't pursue it if he didn't feel certain Khan would win.

            Khan is 5' 11?! i didn`t know he was that tall..

            Remember Audley Harrison won a gold medal at the Olympics and look what happened to him.

            I dont think Khan has the reflexes and defensive capability to be great, he might win a minor world belt though imo

              Khan is a big bugger for a lightweight. If Thaxton has priced himself out of this one then he's an idiot.

                None of you bitches can bring it to Brother Amir. Katsidis got ****ing dropped by Graham "The Girl" Earl whereas Khan tapped that ass in the first round. JUAN DIAZ DONT WANNA GET HIS MEXICAN ASS BEATDOWN EITHER SO SSSSSHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

                    never agree with you on much but this time you could well be right.

                      Khan is 5ft 10 according to boxrec and 5ft 9 according to himself in an interview...

                      JON Thaxton wants a domestic showdown with Amir Khan to prove who is the best of British.


                      although he might have grown an inch
