    Not much more than Khan to be honest.

    But Katsidis is a big puncher and would be too much for Khan to handle imo.

      I dont think anyone is saying khan is world class yet, One thing though he has to be the most unprotected Frank warren fighter.

      Warren was still building people like Hatton..Calzaghe in there mid-20's so we have to wait and see about Khan.

        Khan has the abilities to beat Katsidis as he is very open to hit. The question would be if Khan would be able to handle the pressure and power of Katsidis. We'll find out more with Katsidis from the Casamayor fight. Right now though I don't know if Khan could handle the pressure and power.

          Scott Lawton: This guy is poor! Even before the fight he was saying he has little chance of beating Khan.

          Graham Earl: This guys punch resistance had completly gone. He was shot the second he came out of the ring with Katsidis.

          St Claire: Super-Featherweight with no power and stands at 5 foot 4. Need I say any more?

          He has done very little to convince me he is anything special. He is nowhere near world class!

            Not at all!

            He's just not ready for a shot at any of the world champs. I was using his last 3 bouts as evidence.

              I dont think Khan is experience enough to handle the pressure someone like Katsidis would bring to be honest, I think Khan needs more fight.

                Who holds the titles again? Juan Diaz, David Diaz, Katsidis and who else?

                  Doesn't Juan Diaz hold two belts? I might be wrong though.

                    i think we will know more about katsidis when he fights Casamayor but at the moment i will pick katsidis by KO but i think when this fight does happen it will be very exciting.

                      Too soon for Khan. Lets see how he progresses in say a year or so.
