Khan Vs St Clair RBR - Page 4

As I've already mentioned, this quote from a Khan article Oct 2007 suggests otherwise:

"It would be hard for me to do the fasting for Ramadan. From 5am to 7pm you are fasting and its hard to train during that period and keep your metabolism right so I can make the weight. My faith is everything to me and it has got me to where I am today but it was just too hard to do the fasting this time".

I think that we can all agree that it is ridiculous for Khan to be fighting at lightweight for very much longer. Given his age, he is able to make the weight just, however over the next 3-4 years he will be forced to move up, as his performances will suffer otherwise.

He is listed as 5 10 on boxrec and he will be fighting a guy listed as 5 4.

He has looked absolutely huge against alot of his opponents.

Its an advantage he should continue to milk while he can, and while he shows the discipline to train hard and stay at lightweight.

He will fight at welterweight later on in his career for sure.
