Only if he is completely outclassed. Then Romanov will be out of the job! Bit of a prediciment.

I think your being misled.

This is a fight in which Thaxton has nothing to lose and everything to gain, look at the situation, he is British champ but the most lucrative challenger doesnt want any part of him instead he is being targeted for a shot at the EBU, so now jono has secured the fight, he gets a pay day, the opotunity to win the european title and an automatic world ranking, and if he wins Khan has nowhere else to go, other than more commonwealth defences or the WBU, (which I think ITV are not interested in!), also if Romanov were to beat him he wouldnt lose his shot with Khan as Khan doesnt want to fight him anyway!

Thaxton will go back to defending his British title, and ya never know, if Romanov batters Thaxton easily, it might give Frank enough courage to put Amir in with him, thus giving another a pay day and a shot at the Golden boy or Silver boy shall i say...

Whoever loses this fight has the best shot of getting a fight with Amir.

Fillip Fondu has a better chance of fighting Khan than Romanov and he would still have to be seen geting ko'd ringside by a bit of stray warm air.

Filip Fondu?

A chocolate fondue has a better chance of fighting Khan as it would melt in a hurry saving Khan having to take it out with a flurry!

A great fight , I expected Romanov to take a hard fought decision but I'm expecting a war .

If Romanov wins he will go on to get his shot at the 'WBA' title , by which I mean he'll be fighting Jose Alfaro for the WBA 'regular' title and not Juan Diaz .

If Thaxton wins he'll have plenty of options . He could go straight for a World title shot , he could defend his European title a few times , he could add the soon to be vacant commonwealth title or he could even(unlikely) defend against Amir Khan .

Should he lose , if he takes a lot of punishment I could see Thaxton being put in with Khan then .

Anyway , it's a very exciting match up and something I'm looking forward to big time .
