    No doubt if Khan wins on Sunday he'll made Super Champ or some daft shít so that he doesn't have to bother with the winner of this.

    He's already super champion. He wouldn't be bothering with the winner of this even if he wasn't, though. Bigger fish to fry.

    Yep Mccloskey-Prescott vs the winner of Maidana-Guerrero for the regular belt.

    McCloskey should win this on points but Prescott did show in his last fight that he does have some skills and is not just a crude slugger.

    That's the likeliest outcome. Maidana might spark him though, it isn't a certainty Guerrero will school him.

    If Guerrero doesn't have problems carrying the weight, Maidana hasn't got a hope. Maidana's never sparked anyone decent, it's not going to start with Guerrero.

    So? I said he'd never 'sparked' anyone decent. He hasn't. He has the most overrated power in the sport. He stopped Ortiz because he landed right hands non-stop, and forced Ortiz into pulling out as he was going to be beaten anyways. Guerrero stopped fighting against Yordan because he couldn't see, not because he was being beaten convincingly.

    I think that's a bit disrespectful towards Ortiz (I know he didn't spark him but he beat him up back knocking him down a few times) and Cayo. That body shot on Cayo would have at least put down anyone decent, maybe even kept them down. And some referees would have stepped in when he was giving Khan a hiding in the 10th round.

    Not saying he will win, but I wouldn't consider it a shocker if he managed to stop Guerrero in similar fashion of Rios/Acosta.

    Alright, not sparked, I used to wrong word. "Stopped" then.
