    Possible. At the most, I'd say he's lost the Khan fight and the Witter fight, possibly. However, you can also look at his record and say that maybe he's lost to Marcos Maidana.

    However, when fights go the distance, this is what happens at the end of the day.

      Kotelnik is a top draw fighter despite his losses. Khan has only really beaten him. Kotelnik beat Alexander NO DOUBT.

        Well he has only lost decisively once

        I thought he beat alexander and witter but the latter was really close so no grumbles with that,i havent seen Kotelnik/M'baye but heard their was nothing in it.The maidana fight was extremely close too,and kotelnik got that decision

          I thought the Kotelnik/Alexander fight was closer than people make it out to be for some of the following reasons

          1. People were expecting so much from Alexander and he put up a lackluster performance
          2. Kotelnik was pretty underrated at the time
          3. Close fights will always have people shouting robbery
          4. The overall feel was that Alexander lost due to the messy nature the fight turned out to be from the clash of styles


          If you really look at the fight with no bias or expectations it's really closer than it's made out to be.

            Khan never really got the credit he deserved for the Kotelnik win think I never thought.

              He clearly beat Alexander and got robbed.

              Witter fight was close,I thought he nicked it but it was close - 1 point either way.

              I thought he beat MBaye pretty clearly.

              Maidana fight was also close and could've gone either way. It was 1 point either way.

              Khan is the only one to beat him clearly.
