Had he fought Mosley that would have been the last straw and Khan would have lost my respect to a degree as I expected him to step up after his last few fights that have been good but not great opponents. I think Provodnikov is a superb fight, he is a decent fighter who will be competitive with anyone at world level, Khan's worst nightmare in many ways. Not sure who I would pick to win at the minute, huge respect to Khan if he does take this fight as I certainly thought it was too big a risk given that he really would get very little out of beating him.
I rate Khan probably higher than most on here but Provodnikov would be an awful match up for him. Can't see his team putting him in with Provodnikov.
