    theres allready talk of some turning over because of no grants and thats the main reason the hylands,lindsey,murray etc.. turned pro little or no funding and expected to give up work and train full time and nothing has changed

    carl frampton turned pro due to lack of funding...i think sutcliffes big punching style is more suited to the pros...but his dad might want him to experience the whole olympic thing before he turns over

    Just watched Khan become a world champion:rofl
    Guys McCloskey would destroy this guy.First a European title in september once Peters gets his finger out and gets the rights for Dunnes next fight then a title shot against china khan and an Irish invasion to rival cheltenham.

    McCloskey would be too slick for Khan who still makes defense mistakes.McCloskey punches harder than Khan so as much as I congratulate him for winning the belt I think Paul would decapitate him. :yep We will be waiting a long time before Warren risks Khan with that fight let me tell you.

    i dont think so my friend....since khan has went to roach he has come on leaps and bounds.he has superb handspeed and footwork with a fair bit of power.his chin also seems to have gotten better. imo he would take mccloskey inside the distance but i hope im wrong:bbb

    That was an overrated win, Kotelnik looked nothing like he was billed.I think they are building Khan up again to a ridiculous level, creaming themselves whenever he took a punch from a boxer with a 31% ko ratio.I still saw a lot of flaws which Kotelnik simply couldn't take advantage of.

    For anyone interested Stephen Ormond is having his 5th fight in America tonight. A lot of our guys careers have seemingly stalled for the moment but his career is ticking along nicely.
