Khan vs. Kotelnik on 6/27 - Amir Moving Up To 140

[S.G.]

140 is incredible right now Hatton, Pacquiao, Holt, Bradley, Torres, Kotelnik, Hopkins, Ortiz, Malignaggi, Witter, Urango, Campbell, Peterson and Bailey (the guy that scored that awaesome 1-2 KO on FNF). Marquez may move up to try to get a fight with Pacquiao and Hatton will want to fight Marquez if he wins.

how many of them do you think Warren will stick Khan in with though?

Kotelnik, Malignaggi, Hopkins, Urango...

boring (weak) line up of possible opponents.

This is all geared towards Hatton's huge farewell fight. Imagine the publicity of Khan v Hatton here in Britain

Well considering Khan has claimed Kotlenik to be the worst world champion, I would say that this is a cherry picked opponent who Khan will not get any credit for beating. I think it is probably a good idea to move up to light-welter due to the size of Khan, but as has been stated many times already, his chin is no good and will be exposed more easily by the heavier hitters in this division.

[S.G.]

he's giving up one of his huge advantages by abandoning LW - his size

but maybe we'll see an improvement in his chin

i thought ortiz was fighting kotelnik...what this guy khan decides to skip the lightweight division and all of a sudden get a shot at the championship?..if he beats kotelnik,since ortiz was to fight him,i hope khan gives ortiz a shot...and where does this leave ortiz?..who will he fight in june?..

his chin may actually improve by going up..it happens all the time! weight drained fighters who cant take a shot suddenly become stronger by going up in weight.. prime example of the pacman who got put down by clowns at lower weight to suddenly taking knock out shots from the best at higher..

True. I would like to see Khan improve chin-wise as I could see him going far in boxing if he gets that sorted and faces better opponents.

i see it getting better but only so much. if khan had the chin of antonio margarito he would be the new sugar ray leonard and be unbeatable as far as im concerned!!! he has amazing skills, amazing speed, very good power, amazingly athleticically gifted, is young, has a big heart and balls.. and if god graced him with an antonio margarito chin it would simply be over for everyone else.. it would be the equivalent of giving paris hilton an ass and bigger **** which just isnt allowed lol.. thats the only kink in his arsenal which he had to have or he would be unbeatable.. if his chin improves by even just 20% i see him going quite far!

i dont think jww will add to his chin, he never struggled to make the weight at lw so i dont think it was draining him. hes clearly moved up because hes not ready to fight marquez and valrero is p4p one ofteh hardest hitters in the sport. the ibf title is vacant but i think ali funeka is the mand. who is pretty much a big bredis prescott.
