    maybe dunky,and thaxton is certainly no superstar but at this particular time i think he would be too much for khan.he's obviously spouting off because he wants the match but i can't see warren putting this one together at this particular moment in time.

    Zakman-Amsterdam:

    i want the chin-checking manual.....you always say if anyone wants more info on how check chins then ask....I am asking and want the manual.

    Does the method mean that Limond have a grade A china chin as well? I bet it doesnt cause of amir khans size.

    No chance Thaxton would beat Khan IMO Ron. Khan wasnt 'exposed' as many would like to believe, he just came aup against a very underrated(like I have been saying for ages) scottish warrior in Willie Limond. Its to Khans enormous credit that he won that fight at this stage in his career, & I cant say that enough.

    The Thaxtons of this world are all lining up to have a pop at Khan now, after seeing him nearly beaten. I hope Khan fights all his UK detractors & finishes them off in style, just so they know...

    & I say this as a man who hates Khans fans, as I heard they were ****in horrible anti-scottish racist ****s before & after the fight, the asians AND the whiteboy english Khan fans:twisted: I got a taste of it though when I seen Khan fight in Glasgow, his fans were twats then too, & had to be escorted out of the Braehead arena as the jocks had enough of their goading & were ready to kick their ****in heads in:lol:

    Did Limond get stopped on damage, or knocked the **** out?

    These two are not even comparable, he took a lot of punches and was stopped by damage, never did he once even go down, this means he probably has a rather decent chin, not that I rate Khan as a significant puncher.

    The chin checking training is lengthy, there is no 1 manual, it's learned through trials and tribulations.:yep

    well dunky they might be khan fans but they're certainly not boxing fans,we've seen it many times a football fan style mentallity,it does my head in.anyway i thought it was a good fight one thing i think we now know,young khan has a bit of substance about him,if he fails it won't be for lack of a fighting heart.as for willie i was very impressed by the way he went about his business totally unfazed and confident you could probably tell after a minute or two that this fight was a totally different proposition from all khan's others.i was gutted when it was stopped actually.

    Thaxton stops Khan.

    Limond is a good fighter and I agree with you that he is underrated. But he also has feather dusters for fists and even his 8 stoppage wins have been a large accumulation of shots, he has very very little in the way of power. His own corner admit as much and don't even try and say his power is underrated, and yet he had Khan virtually out of there.

    I said before the fight it was a great step up and a good fight for Khan to learn from and be pushed, but I did not expect him to be nearly KO'd even though I had worries over his chin.

    Thaxton is aggressive and hits MUCH harder than Limond. If Khan fought him now he would be stopped, I am convinced of that.

    RIGHT GUYS LETS GET SOME FACTS HERE. LIMOND DID NOT HAVE A BROKEN JAW, OR A BROKEN NOSE, THE ONLY THING THAT LIMOND HAD WAS A PERFORATED EAR! HE SUFFERED THIS A FEW TIMES DURING HIS CAREER, SO ITS NOT KHANS POWER THAT DID THE DAMAGE. HE DIDNT GET PULLED OUT FOR ANY OTHER REASON, HIS BALANCE WAS STARTING TO GO CAUSE OF HIS EAR. SO PLEASE STOP SAYING HE GOT SMASHED TO **** CAUSE THAT IS A LOAD OF PISH.
    IT LOOKS AS IF I'LL BE DISAGREEING WITH MY OLD MATE DUNKY ON THIS ONE. DUNKY, I WOULD PUT A GOOD LOAD OF MONEY ON THAXTON EATING KHAN FOR BREAKFAST, ACTUALLY THERE ARE PROBABLY 3-4 IN BRITAIN THAT WOULD MAN **** THAT CLOWN. I'M JUST SO DISAPPOINTED THAT WILLIE DIDNT HAVE A BURST FOR 30 SECONDS AND FINISH THIS IDIOT.:thumbsup

    I think KHAN has had too much publicity and that has overrated him.
    Lets hope Thaxton teaches him a lesson. Big mouth and showoff khan.

    Last time I offered you a bet that Khan would beat Thaxton and Limond you went all quiet!! It's one thing to state on here you'd bet against Khan, it quite another to put your money were your mouth is:hey

    We can go to Betfair.com if a Khan/Thaxton fight is made and have a private bet, but I bet you duck out:D

    I have not heard or seen anything that could possibly change my mind about whether Thaxton could beat Khan. It is a no brainer. Khan has the skills but Thaxton is an old pro with power i.e. Khan's worst nightmare. If he came through the fight with a win and not the bull**** happenenings of the Limond fight i may start giving the kid some credit.

    Anyone who has had the misfortune to be anywhere near Khan's fans will have the same opion has you. The hatred is not just reserved for the Scots. If it was at a football ground Frank Warren and Khan would be in deap water and a large majorit of fans would be banned.

    You are convinced that Thaxton would beat Khan fought him next? Thats a bold statement my friend! However, I could be wrong about Khan, & you could be proven right. I just hope the fight happens, cos Khan did promise Thaxton the payday, & if it is half as good as the Khan-Limond fight then the winners are us fans at the end of the day. We need more of these big domestic matchups to make boxing mainstream again on these shores.

    You are right Ron, the Khan fans seem to be a dumb lot in the main. Sorry for quoting you pal & going on about it, as if it was your fault:lol: I was just quoting you & went off on random rant as I do sometimes, it was nothing personal:good You just happened to be the guy I was talking to when the Khan fans jumped into my big scottish head out of nowhere...

    Like you I was gutted when the fight suddenly ended, cos it was an ITV classic, the first mad war since the days of Nigel Benn & co in the ITV classic era of the 90's. Thats how im not getting into any mad debates about the fight now on here, cos I was privileged to see a fight that reminded me why I was a boxing fan in the first place. Ive got massive respect for both guys, & hope they go on to have great careers. Its weird how certain fights blow you away, & that was one of them for me.
