    P.S....Since Ortiz lost 2 Maidana in that fashion..wont a Khan win over Kotelnik make Khan look quite good since Ortiz was just as hyped 2 be the next big thing like Khan..??? correct me if i'm wrong..

    It would be a great win if Khan can achieve it.

    Khan moving up a weight and with a glass chin this is the best fight he could of got in the division. He has a chance but a slim chance. I think Kotelnik will have to much for him and will win on points. I think Khan maywell end up on the canvas. I dont care what people say Khan has proved **** all and it amazes me how he got this fight. The win over Barrera proved **** all and could of and should of been stopped sooner over that cut nasty cut. When he has been in with a decent fighter he got found out big time. I dont care how good of a trainer Roach is if you got a chin like his even fighters who are not big punchers have a great chance of putting him down like Wille Limond and the French fighter before that add to that a washed up Gomez had him down aswell. Prescott proved just how average Khan is he didn't know what to do in the fight and looked clueless.
    I think with Khan avoiding fights with Jon Thaxton and Jon Murray it has taken away a good learning curve from Khan. These fights would of made Khan a better fighter instead of the Gomezs and ***ans of the world and I think it is going to work against him as he hasn't been tested as much as he should of before a world title fight and doesnt know how to handle the pressure of being in a tough fights.

    I think Khan should and will stay at range and box Kotelnik intelligently on the outside. If Khan chooses to control the fight using his superior speed then I think he wins a UD. There's no point trying to fight Kotelnik- Rees (when he got desperate) and Maidana both tried and failed. As long as Khan's smart, he's got a great chance.

    I find it amazing that since he trumped Ortiz, people are talking about Maidana all of a sudden like he's never been around before. In my eyes, this proves how good a champion Kotelnik actually is and, should Khan beat him, it will be an incredible victory. We shall see how it all pans out.

    I get the feeling Roach might not realise just how iffy his chin is. Either that or he reckons the move up will cure it (ala Cotto)

    I would like to see him doing well but I said it way back when he first turned pro and I'll say it again, Warren is trying to create another Naz but it simply just doesnt work that way. :?

    Cant make a solid prediction on this fight as going up in weight changes things but I see a Kotelnic KO/TKO. Khan got shook by a badly cut barrera so fighting a World class opponent in Kotelnick for 12 rounds will take its toll on Khan.

    Khan will win but won't be surprised if Khan hits the canvas
