Gainer is over the hill IMO and hasn't been effective at lightweight but he could give Khan some valuable experience.Last edited by Silencers; 08-05-2008, 08:28 AM. -

derrick gainer was always a fringe contender who would hold a belt here and there the reason why most of us know him is because he was on every roy jones undercard back in the day, either way this dude is a featherweight i think and kahn should dispose of him the same way Chico did back in the day.Comment

Well put it this way Gainer was in his prime around
1992 lol
Warren making sure his golden egg dosent crackComment

That just sums khan up fighting a over the hill featherweight with a glass jaw who peaked in the 90's. My advice to warren is get khan down to the featherweight divisaion cos he only gets matched against feathers and he has a featherweights chin.Comment

Lame fight. Get Khan in with some real Lightweights!!!Comment

Derrick Gainer? This fight would have been good if it was 10 years ago,this is gna be a mismatch,put Khan in with real fighters,this is getting disguisting,Warren cant keep protecting him,because when Khan finaly gets in with a lightweight,who is young,and can punch,Khan is finishedComment
