Khan Says American Training Camp Will Clip Kotelnik

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

UK lightweight star Amir Khan says that his decision to continue training in America at the Wild Card Gym with Freddie Roach will help him overcome the tough challenge of WBA junior welterweight champion Andreas Kotelnik on July 18 at the MEN Arena in Manchester. [details]

[SceneSpectator!]

If he's indeed strong at 140, I would like to see him in action with Nate then to Hatton! But as long as he's in the Wild Card I doubt if he and Pacman would crossed their path in that weight level!

I get the feeling people are already writing kotelnik off. Even though he is the only guy to have beaten maidana.

Which people are writing him off?

As well as beating Maidana he arguably deserved to get the decision against Witter as well. He's a very good fighter.

[FLYBOY]

yes, but who has Maidana beat? people think he is the next george foreman

[FLYBOY]

maidana is a very slow fighter with very minimal skills. yes, he has power in his hands. but that's all he has.

[Lacrimosa]

I will cheer for Koltelnik, but i`m afraid Khan will simply outpoint him with the help of Roach and the judges and the referee...

[El Jaguar]

Maidana will crack that chin, he just needs one tap, he punches 100 times harder than Precott, just do the math

[taker1570]

Idk, somehow i dont see Khan winning this.

[PittyPat]

If he does win, who's next? He can't jump in with Bradley or Pac, so perhaps they'll put him in with Holt, Paulie or Ortiz. Either way, even as a fan I can't see him beating any of the top guys right now. I'd give him a chance with Paulie, though...
