Ok so its not too long until this fight now, I have been examining tape of Koletnik and I thought i'd give my opinion on this fight.
I think that Koletnik is a good all round fighter, he doesnt have any glaring weaknesses, but nor does he seem to me to have any great strengths, he is "pretty good" at everything. Khan obviously has a horrible chin, but I think he is a lot faster and more flashy than Koletnik. This fight could be Khans version of Audley vs Sprott, in that Khan could get embarresed and sent packing from anywhere near the top, and I think that for a while it will seem like thats going to happen. However here is my prediction:
Khan gets floored early, and has to climb back out of a hole, he recovers and the two will fight a fairly even fight, however lets not forget, in Khans backyard, Khan only has to come close to bettering koletnik on the cards to get the nod, Koletnik has to really beat Khan beyond doubt to get a points win, this said I think Khan boxes defensivley for 12, stealing the odd round and does just enough to get the win, Koletniks fans will have plenty to complain about and Khan will leave us with more questions than answers with a very sketchy win.
Whats your take on this guys?
