    ''it's not just because of Prescott that he's vulnerable, he has been knocked down a whole bunch of other times''



    ''.....I'm going to go in there to do my work and eventually he is going to get hit on the chin. When he is, we'll see what happens. He's been beaten before and he's going to get beaten by me.'' :bbb



    ''I'm focused on 5 December but in the future I'd definitely like a shot at Hatton.'' :think



    ''He (Hatton) tipped Khan to beat me, so there is extra incentive there.'' :fire

    Can't fault him really why wouldn't he. Nice to seem him with some confidence going in.

    Exactly, at least he's making the right noises. Let's hope we see a fight.

    I find it amusing that Salita is concentrating on Khans chin, rather than worrying about protecting his own. Especially given that over the course of his last 8 fights he has been knocked down 3 times by men with a 7% and 10% KO ratio...puts the Limond KD in some sort of perspective.

    He'll be wanting to fight the rest of the boxing world as well I suppose.

    Is there anyone tipping Salita to win this?

    He has always got a chance.

    Anyone know if Warren has options on the guy if he wins?

    To be fair, Oisin ***an made noises, as did Kotelnik, and previously, so did Graham Earl etc... It's a boxers job to make noises like such before their fights. I do hope Salita puts up a fight, but then again if he gives Khan a tough fight, Khan's **** struggling with average fighters like Salita, and if he beats him, it's what was expected of him anyway.

    TBH its good he is maing the right noises, but the guy has a padded record, he is pretty slow compared to Khan, only matter of time before he gets nailed
