    This will NEVER happen. A-mere-con would never go into the ring with a guy like provodnikov. Provo would destroy khan.

    Its difficult to see Khan not getting brutally knocked out at some point.

    :nono Wrong, Khan is very much dumb enough to get in the ring with him. His promoters would only allow it because they feel they are done with him, and want to cash him out.

    In that case they'd arrange a Brook fight which is a much bigger fight in every aspect.

    Cant see Khan not getting KO'd in this fight. I'm not one of these Khan haters either, I am a big fan of his however I see Provodnikov and Porter as the two worst stylistic match ups for him.

    I genuinely believe provodnikov might be dumb enough to lose this one. It should be an easy KO for him but he is just so basic I can see him never getting to khan.

    Khan speed could play a major factor, but I still like Provodnikov to get a stoppage.

    Dear god, Provodnikov DESTROYS Khan. This is a mismatch.

    Ok before everyone goes Prov by vicious KO , remember the guy is a face first bum.

    Khan boxes rings around him and probably stops him late.
