I checked on boxing scene top headlines and they want to do the fight and of course Provo said hell yes he would love to fight Khan. They have not heard from Khan yet. I think Khan will turn the fight down. Provo is the exact opposite of the kind of guys Khan has been fighting. He is a big puncher with both hands and he goes for the kill every minute of every round. Khan hates that kind of power and pressure. It's time for Khan to quit bragging on himself and get in the ring and fight a truly dangerous fighter. If Khan takes this fight he has my respect, win, lose or draw.

i picture it Khan will move a lot keep Provo at the end of his reach, barraging him with fast combo until the final bell. provo mightbe lucky pushing khan to the ropes in some round if he relentless like in Bradley fight. but i still believe Khan will survive, Khan chin is not as glassy as NSB posters keep exagerrating. he had a weak chin sure but he can still handle maidana's power.
Frankly i more affraid Khan lose if he fight someone with Great timing, skill and inside game like Bradley or Mathysse. with Provo i still go 80-20 in favor of khan.

provo catch bradley when bradley try to go war with him(****** of bradley) and as you can see in the fight when Bradley fight in the outside provo can't touch him even with bradley short reach bradley backing him off.
Maidana catch khan with his signature awkward overhand counter, Danny catch khan with his signature no look left hook. both of them are specialized improved punches. is not easy to get close to Amir. you need timing like Danny or awkward style like Maidana. straight brawler like Provo will be at the end of khan reach all night long.

Khan is notorious for trying to fight fire with fire when he is hurt. And he will get hurt.

if khan can follow a game plan like matthysse he should be able to win but he still gets caught in his fights and that's what makes this fight very interesting.

It is a dangerous fight for Khan. We have seen and know that Provo can be outboxed, but if I am not mistaken, no one has done so without having to weather some brutal shots. Khan has the stylistic advantage and should win based on talent and skill, but can he go the whole fight without being clipped, or even somehow survive it?
