    Dear Friends
    kind regards
    On the 6th of December, Amir Khan prepares to uplift a slightly dented career by taking on Oisin ***an.
    ***an has a pretty good reputation and is known as a hard hitter, he is promoted by Stacy Goodson.
    Can ***an repeat the performance of Breidis Prescott or will Amir Khan be able to bounce back from his last defeat?
    If you could give me your opinions and vote in the poll A.S.A.P I'd appreciate it.
    yours thankfully
    John

    Why ASAP lol? And Khans career is more than slighty dented. I do think he win this weekend as if not than it's game over from him.

    Love to see oisin do it here. Just watched an interview with ***an, looks like he's taken a few batterings in training with bad bruising on his lip, eye and even some on his ear. Don't know if that means anything though, Oisin by KO!!!

    Even though he's a light puncher compared to Orescott, ***an knows any sort of clean punch can drop Khan.

    I reckon he'll just run through Khan.....it could be a big victory for him and he knows he'll never win on PTS, so I think he'll go for it. Expect Khan to look terrified every time ***an gets within range.

    Still, Khan will probably win by late stoppage, then all the tabloids can say 'He's back!' Sad thing is his chin is so bad he'll never be able to beat a top-tier opponent; I even think Paulie could stop this guy.

    ***an is not a hard puncher although neither was Willie Limond. I am tentatively going for Khan here. My only look at ***an was when he lost an unpopular decision to US Prospect Verquan "the show" Kimbrough. Kimbrough is a boxer puncher type but was roughed up somewhat by ***an and ringsiders believed he had won. I actually had Kimbrough winning by a few points so was not bothered that he got the decision. ***an is a tough battler but I fear he does not have the potent punch to KO Khan. He was unable to drop Kimbrough who also has a suspect chin, and even though ***an will have his moments I really do think he is out of his depth here against Khan and without the equalizer (power) I believe he will be the one stopped in 10. ***an will give it his best shot though and if Khan is still mentally effected by the KO in a big way, then this will only improve ***an's chances of proving me wrong.

    Dear columbo man
    kind regards
    I also feel much the same way about Amir Khan and this match.
    Khan is very quick and skilled, but he has a shaky chin, VERY shaky.
    We will have to see if Mr Roache has steered him in the right direction this Saturday.
    yours thankfully
    John

    I`ve been reading the local paper Manchester News and Khans getting hyped up even by his previous opponent,Gomez.He should have enough to beat ***an,just about,but his hype will allow to keep duckin top fighters at British level.It will be interesting to see how his career progresses from here.

    Amir Khan wins this. This is a fight he's expected and SUPPOSED to win, ***an isn't any good to pull the upset in my opinion even if he tried.

    Khan knocks him out and hopefully shows some improvements, it will be tough coming off a brutal loss.
