Comments Thread For: Khan-Provodnikov Targeted For November 7, Barclays

[Drunk Punch]

Khan will avoid this like the plague.

This isnt surprising in the sense Khan will be facing another 140lber coming off an L instead of facing a top10 WW. Its surprising its Provo, I doubt Khans ready to step in with somebody with that kind of power...and i hope he proves me wrong. One things for sure though, HE WONT BE FIGHTING ANY TOP 147LBERS SOON!

None of the current welters have any desire to be great.

I'll just leave it there.

Mayweather > everyone else, by MILES !

Berto really isn't a bad opponent, considering that you guys have all signed off on Bradley/Rios and Khan/Provo..... the issue is the fact that Floyd/Berto is on PPV.

Then again, I'd still be blaming Arum if JRB123 hadn't corrected me earlier

[thack]

Ole glass jaws at it again....YOU idiots

[wlliam]

so where are those mother****ers that say Khan cherrypicks?

Thats bcuz he does cherry pick. Another 140lber coming off an L...Khanjobs criteria. Its a miracle Khans even rated at 147lbs

[wlliam]

So where are those Khan haters who say he doesn't fight anyone and cherry picks?

Who is Brook fighting or fought since being a world champion?

Brook is facing Chavez...you know Khan has NEVER fought a 147lber rated as high as Chavez is right now? Provo is a 140lber coming off an L...this fights not even finalized dude. Where you gonna be when Khan turns it down ?

Ruslan just needs to hit two big bombs, an overhand right, then a left hook.

Provo has been challenging everyone, which included Haymon fighters since last year. It's been known that he can work with both SHO and HBO. Khan is the first Haymon fighter that accepted Provo's challenge, if the reports are true. He's clearly rejected by Broner's team.

[Carpe Diem]

This might be an easy fight for Khan if he can constantly target Ruslan's body and stay on his bicycle in order to prevent him from getting off like Bradley did to him in their fight, but everyone knows that Khan performs better against southpaws than he does orthodox. I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't struggle against, Ruslan, but i wouldn't be surprised if Ruslan catches him and put him to sleep either.

[Box-Office]

I still prefer DSG rematch, but this fight is about giving the fans what they want. "featherfisted doe".
