    What do you think each will bring to the table?

    What do you expect their strategy to be?

    How could each win?

    How do you think this fight will play out?

    Will Khan's chin hold out? Does Earl have enough in the tank to cause an upset? Or won't it matter anyway because Khan is too good?

    katsidis and earl were toe-to-toe all the way through. i very much doubt earl-khan will be the same kind of fight. earl will be the one getting countered all night and i can see the fight getting stopped by the ref.

    it'll be an interesting one though just to see if khan has made any progress since limond.

    I was once very impressed with Earl - thought he had real potential; but hasn't really set the world on fire.

    Think that Khan will take him to pieces inside 6 rounds.

    As Stuey puts it; khan is too young, too fresh, too big, & way too fast.

    That's the way I see it too. I'd love it if Earl won though.

    I see it going a similar way as katsidis not actual fight styles as khan deffo wont go toe to toe or he shouldnt anyway with his speed but we have seen him get too aggressive and lose focus and get caught. But i reckon hell dominate mostly but earl wont go quietly as he showed in the katsidis fight which was one of the best fights id seen in a while.:thumbsup

    Graham Earl is a shot fighter, who has been passed his best now for over a year.

    If Khan performs to the level of his last fight, with the improvements which he implemented then this should be an easy fight for him. He needs to use his mobilty and speed to confuse Earl.

    I think Earl will never get into the fight and never even trouble Khan.

    I think Khan will deliver a one side beat down, stopping Earl on his stool at the beginning of the 9th round.

    Earls corner may throw the towel in also. No way a ref throws it out a la Katsidis fight against Khan.

    My head says Khan clear winner and maybe even stoppage depending on ref but I will be hoping on a Earl win.

    I think I have it closer than most people but for different reasons such as I rate Earl and think he will have alot left.

    earl cant punch.....so he should be able to handle him.

    but what is the point?? if khan wants to prove something he has to step up and meet someone with a little steam behind his gloves.

    Khan is to fast, to accuarate, more powerful, to skillful. Impressive first 8 rounds stoppage for Khan
