    yes i think Arthur is good not world class and diddent he ko limond in
    7-8 rounds but Arthur at 15-0 isent as good as khan at 12-0

    But my point stands Limond has never beaten anyone yet and will get knocked out by khan in side 5 rounds

    why are you bored of me because i said a scotish fighter was crap lol

    Well, I was just joking with you cos you said Limond didnt stand a chance. However, I didnt know what you really meant was that you think scottish fighters are crap.

    Thanks for clearing that one up for me. Now I have a proper reason to ignore you.

    Should be a great fight. I personally heavily favour Khan to take it, but Limond is no mug. Hes got great heart and a good engine and can definitely bang a bit. If all the "khan has a glass chin" guys are right then he could definitely make it hard for Amir. Im going for a late stoppage in Khans favour, but with Limond pushing him pretty hard all the way down.

    Even if Khan gets stunned proper* or put on his ass, the battle is won for me, because for all of Willie's good qualities as a fighter, hitting is not one of them.

    This will prove that Khan can't take an elite level shot, hell, not even a proper Domestic banger's shot and that the entire campaign to promote and exploit him was useless and damaging to British Boxing in ways that most didn't see and **** on the greedy establishment and the moronic fans.

    Oh yeah!:respect

    i can see khan taking a clean shot to the chin, not going down, and then several threads being started about how he was hurt...

    nah...sorry amsterdam, but to prove the glass chin theory beyond doubt he has to go down and not get up, or get up but be visibly hurt.

    British boxing NEEDS Amir Khan. It NEEDS Khan to win AND it NEEDS Khan to win IMPRESSIVELY.

    We have Hatton and Calzaghe who are sure things but after that we are lacking TRUE class. Khan, Haye, Enzo and co need to step up for us. I'm rooting for them. They can capture the publics imaginations. Something the odd guy like Woods can't. You NEED to capture the publics imagination.

    I'm really looking forward to this one, although as good as Limond is,Khan is a bit special, and I think Khan will stop him before halfway

    Im sure theyre working on his defence in the gym anyway. Look at the improvement Harrison had on Moores defence.

    Imagine back in the day if you were ranting about how Robinson and Ali couldn't take a shot. Especially after you'd seen who dropped and stunned them. Damn, hindsight would make you look like a ****!
