Wow...Amir Khan looks like he is growing into his body, and looks very strong. His top half is looking very thick without being absolutely ripped to shreds. I think Amir is going to get a KO tommorow.
Go on Khan. Hoping for a great fight!!!

Never realised Salita fought most of his recent fights at welterweight. How the hell did he manage to get such a high ranking with the WBA at junior welter?
Anyway, it makes little difference, Khan by a very wide UD - maybe a complete shut-out.

I want to see Khan really sit down on his punches this time, rather than jumping in and out with a feather-fisted flurry and hoping to score. He shouldn't have anything to worry about with this guy in terms of being hurt, so why not give us fans a show by brutally KO'ing him? :laff2:
(I laugh because he's never brutally KO'ed anyone amongst his stoppage wins. They're all ref stoppages.)

He fights like the is still in the amateurs at the olympics with the ***** point scoring punches.

Nothing new here, Frank Warren makes every fighter take off their underwear. He made Barrera, Kotelink and most of Khan's other opponents strip. He made Kessler strip for the Calzaghe fight and made most of Naseen's opponents strip naked too. He made Ola Afolabi strip for the Maccarneilli fight. Over the years Frank Warren has made alot of fighters strip naked at the weigh in, as anyone else noticed this, I even made a joke before the weigh in that Warren would make Salita strip LOL, Something seriously weird going on here Frank.
