      It will be interesting to see what the WBA does. Roach wants to fight someone like Hatton and he also mentioned Morales. lol. There is an interim champ in Maidana, and a mandatory in Salita that are supposed to get a shot. Maybe the WBA will just invent another belt for Salita, name Maidana as "super-duper" champ in waiting, and then let Khan fight whoever he feels like fighting......... *sigh*

      and save the "Khan beat Kotelnik who beat Maidana so theres no need for Khan to fight Maidana" bull****. Kotelnik cant crack an egg, and since Maidana put Ortiz on the floor twice and made him quit I'd bet green money that if Maidana clips Khan on that teacup chin its all over.....

        This would be a good money-maker for Khan and Roach, also a possible passing of the UK torch.

          That presupposes that Khan said he'd never fight hatton and that hatton wouldn't want the fight now that Khan has a belt. Furthermore, it's the way hatton lost to both p4p bests. Now, in defending Khan I have shaky ground putting down hatton, but Khan's only lost once is young and boxes, he doesn't wrestle. I like Khan's style and humility, neither of which I liked about hatton.

                  Khan can't crack an egg? Khan has good power, but it's hard to display when your opponent is shelled up like a turtle for 12 rounds. Maidana doesn't have an excellent chin himself, and if he fights as open as he fought Ortiz, Khan has more than enough power to put Maidana down. Plus, for the first 5-6 rounds I doubt Khan will trade with Maidana to get hit with a clean shot. Khan will use his jab, and look to counter the wide looping shots of Maidana. As always if Khan eats something big, he will probably lose the fight, but I think he has enough to beat Maidana early. Khan has more speed than Ortiz, a jab, a better defence, and a better boxing brain. I think he has the potential to stop Maidana early, as Maidana does Khan.

                  If they fought next, I would favour Maidana to land something big and stop Khan. But if Khan beats Salita, then Hatton, and shows further defensive improvement without getting tagged, I would pick Khan to win by mid-round stoppage. Khan would be too fast, too accurate, and too slippery for the one dimentional slugger Maidana.

                    True enough, JM1. That's all I saw in the interview. Khan said something about leaving it to the promoters. The reason he probably said that is because the promoters are considering it as hatton has not declared publicly that he has or has not retired and all Khan did was respond to a question.

                    For Khan it's difficult. The man is between continents. He has a great trainer in Roach and knows that and probably through working with him knows Manny. He could not root hard for either and had to hedge his position, and a 'no comment' would sound too wimpy and no one would accept that so what's he gonna say? Also, he's 22. As a young adult he's more mature than a lot of people I see at my age and older.
