    Does anyone else feel a bit short changed after the Khan fight last night?

    Salita really didn't deserve to be in the same ring as Khan! Amir really needs to step up his opposition next time out or ruin what credibility he has left

    I don't take anything away from Khan it was a devastating performance and those calling for a Prescott re-match are a bit deluded after he was destroyed last night by Kevin Mitchell that is never going to happen

    Who should Khan fight next?

    I say lets make sure he is the best in Britain first then really step up the competition the guy has talent man ****ing use it!

    ..and also unbeaten in 31 fights. I'd say Salita had earned a shot and was definitely legit opposition for a young champion such as Khan.

    Though I could understand why people who had paid to be there or watch it were a bit frustrated, it was just that Khan blew him away. An impressive performance.

    I realise that and i know he was a mandatory but you reckon he would have fought Maidana if HE was a mandatory?

    Hell no he would have vacated!

    Anyway i'm British, i like Amir, i want him to step it up! Simples!

    Getting sick of seeing posts like this AFTER the fight has taken place. By all means question the calibre of opponent BEFORE the fight, but making these comments after the fight just sounds like sour grapes and desperation to undermine the winner.

    Dont blame Khan, he did what he had to do and did it in style. Its the WBA who made him manditory maybe direct ur abuse to them rather than a massively improved fighter.

    I was home alone last night with nothing to do so I ordered the ppv while I did some work.

    I do feel little annoyed I payed for it, in retrospect; the undercard fights sucked (the ones that were ACTUALLY shown), and Salita was definitely not an opponenet worth making a headlining PPV event for.

    It was worth the money for keeping my evening from being dull as hell, but the actual material was significantly underwhelming.
