R3 Still Khan is the busier but Kotelnik landed the cleaner punches and was busier than before, he should take the 3rd. Kotelnik.
I gave Kahn the 3rd round, but he is starting to loose control of the distance and Kotelnik is starting to find home.
Khan's handspeed looking very good. His jab is very good. He gets too confident and drops his guard. Then one he gets hit puts it back up.
closer round, Khan got tagged once, but I still think he won the round by getting in and getting out. Kotelnik playing role of the aggressor and seems to be closing the gap a bit, 10-9 Khan Round 3: Giving the round to Khan for being more active...Kotelnik just isn't throwing a lot, but when he does he seems to be landing. He had a short rally at the start of the round, and again a bit at the end of the round. Khan's been hit a bit, the chin is holding up so far. 3-0 Khan on my card
Kotelnik beginning to work behind a jab now. Khan throwing more or less one shot at a time before resuming his guard, occasionally throwing a triple jab with his body leaned back and his chin tucked. He knows he needs to stay away from Kotelnik's power. Kotelnik jumps in with a series of lead hooks to finish the round. A couple miss, a couple glance primarily off the gloves. Kotelnik got a few jabs of his own and tapped Khan's body a few times, but Khan has won another round with his jab.
Kotelnik falling in love with the 3-2 and 3-2-3 power-punch combinations. Khan still relying on his jab, occasionally following it up with a fast straight that's scoring points but not discouraging Kotelnik. Kotelnik finding Khan at the corners as they circle the full length of the ring's perimeter and banging him with body shots and mixing in an attack upstairs that rocks but doesn't quite shatter Khan's high guard. Kotelnik round, IMO. 39-37 Khan.
Close round, great defense by Kotelinik and Khan may be slowing down slightly...I'm leaning towards Kotelnik this round making it 3-1 Khan on my card
