Can Amir Khan Crack the Andreas Kotelnik Code?

[Abstraction]

Lets be real, Barrer is no where he was before and Kotelnik they are view it as a non puncher. That Barrera fight should had been stopped and a rematch should had been in place. I was looking foward in seeing where Khan would be after the Barrera fight and the question went unanswered with such a disputed ending

Garbage. Absoloute Garbage.

Considering Amir was KO'd cold just two bouts prior. Barrera was a big step up in class.

I remember on every Boxing forum everybody was glad thinking Barrera was going to destroy Khan.

Dang it was 50:50 going into the bout that night.

I agree the ending was far from what he wanted, but a win is a win.

He was passed it, but no way was he far from his best when compared to how green Khan is and far from his potential best.

Khan didn't know Barrera would get cut. And while Barrera was not anywhere near what he once was, many people expected him to beat Khan. No matter what you say, that fight was a risk. Considering Khan has been floored by Limond, and Gomez, I wouldn't call Kotelnik a light puncher. He is a great boxer, with good skills, and a tight defence. If Khan is defeated, his career at world level is over before it began. It's a huge fight and a huge risk for Khan.

I can't see Khan stoping him unless theres a bad ref call, for that reason i think it will last 12 rounds and i can't see Khan going 12 rounds against Kontelnik without getting tagged on the chin.

Kotelnik KO/stoppage in the later rounds. Khan might prove me wrong and be too fast for him and be too hard to hit but we will se on Saturday night.

Thanks for your opinion. At least you can express your thoughts without being hateful, or disrespectful to the boxers at hand.

A couple of people in this thread could learn from this.

Thanks Timbla, actually if it wasn't for Khans puch resistance/weak chin then i would have to go for a wide UD for Khan because im pretty sure he will win most rounds due to more work rate and punches thrown/landed.

Whatever happens it promises to be an interesting match and hopefully its an exciting one.

Tbh as far at the whole Khan Kotelnik who will win debacle goes...only time will tell now.

I can honestly say I don't know who's going to win - it's too hard to decide.

Khan to beat Kotelnik, possibly by controversial stoppage.. expect him to be alot better at 140 and also not as chinny... anyone wanna bet me on the fight pm me
thanks

[AssasinKing]

Hope khan wins by a good bit....KO (unlikely) or by alot of points...

Or all the haters and people that really really hate him...will just say "i thought kotelnik won" as you see with every other boxer now, they always have some ****** bull**** idea when they hate som1, they see the other guy doing better lol
