Khan deserves respect if he beats Kotelnik

[The_Demon]

Agreed, IF IF IF IF (because to me kotenlik/khans 50/50) he beats kotelnik who does khan fight? Maidana? Prescott? Hatton? All of those guys look likely and all could probably destroy him if he isnt perfect

warren wont let him near a maidana,guarantee

[MOTHER DUCKER]

warren wont let him near a maidana,guarantee

Neither will Roach i read interview in a boxing magazine in the uk saying that, that's a fight Roach thinks should happen later down the line to make more money. Pretty much ducking him for the moment i think all tho i guess that means Khan will have to vacate cause maidana must be his mandatory?

[cosmichorn]

maidana would be suisidal unless roach was sure khan would be ok, that guy is like the valero (maybe better) of the LWW division

Prescott/maidana/valero=HUGE punchers, khan will have to face at least one of them in the future to be great

Khans had 1 fight at 140 3 years ago and got knocked down (argueably) by a bum

Wasn't a KD, and his first 12 fight (minus one in between) were at 140.

According to boxrec, this is a fuzzy issue actually, the media always built him up as a lightweight if i remember rightly

[arargh]

he deserves it yes but he wont get it(from the americans)

[NakiFan]

The yanks will still claim ortiz is better

I think that was more to do with the Olympics thing. He's always looked massive for 135, so I always figured he would have no trouble jumping around between LW and LWW.

Beef him up even more and he could be a fuckin WW! He'd be taller than Cotto, Floyd, Shane and Clottey. :shk1:

Khans skinny though, i dont think hes quite ready for WW yet, maybe in his later 20s. People like cotto shane and clottey will make khan look like a stick man.

I think LWW will be his best division

Twiglet legs are what he has. :laff2: I'm sure he can grow into his body as he ages. By rights he's not even close to prime yet.

He shouldn't even be thinking about 147 until he's had a feel for real competition at 140. Should he get through Saturday night, the door is wide open for him.

There are so many guys he could face in 2 loaded divisions - Prescott, Valero, Maidana, Ortiz, Katsidis, Bradley, Holt, Juan Diaz, Malignaggi, Campbell, Guzman, Witter, Urango, Funeka...
