i hope Thaxton gets handed a beating he is a slow methodical plodder with no skill what so ever just a tough club fighter who will get outclassed by anyone with a decent set of skills and hand speed
its a shame this bum is a flag bearer for one of our countries British Titles

i agree
Im convinced Khan woukld beat the **** out if him , Dave Stewart outboxed he is ready for the scrap heap trust me ,by the time Khan get to him he will be even more shot ,not say Khan would'nt dust him in his prime cause Khan would handle any verison of Thaxton
he is to easy to hit and slow ,Ricky Hatton hit him with everything but his toughness got him to the final bell but i still think that fight should have been stopped he was taking Gatti like head shots in that fight ,the type of shots that are'nt nice to see a fighter takingComment
