    Great performance. Real quality. However he will be vulnerable to a southpaw as he still tends to drop his right when he jabs. Hopefully Freddy will work on that when the time comes.Good to see he took a few shots and didn`t buckle.

    No, lets not start with **** like that, the majority of people felt this was an even fight. Do not start degrading Kotelnik now Khan beat him.

    He said that on purpose, cause david went with Maloney, and then started his own company. Fwank is a right ****.

    We've learnt a bit. We know that Khan can defend better, that he's definitely boxing smarter than he used to, that he actually listens to Roach. We also know that he has a good workrate, good conditioning (known before but not confirmed, and definitely not against title holders).

    Also, despite Kotelnik not being a big hitter, we know that Khan, despite a suspect chin, CAN take a few shots (as opposed to not being able to take any at all) which will give him some confidence.

    Good fight from Khan, good stamina, good hand speed, tight defence. I was impressed.

    I didn't think it was a very even fight which is why I didn't pay for it but still watched. I'm not degrading his win because he did well but I personally still have the same question marks over him than I did before this fight.

    Akxtinguish, I agree with what you say but I already thought he had most of those qualities. The punch resistance in this fight means nothing because he was barely caught and Kotelnik can't punch.

    **** me, tabulation error on my card: I actually had it 116-112 for Khan, not 117-111. Whoops. :patsch

    I gave Khan 1,2,3,5,6,7,8,10

    I gave Kotelnik 4,9,11,12
