    Khan is a china chinned creampuff that fights guys with single digit KO's in their record.. Even an old and past his prime Nat Campbell will knock his ass out.

    Be careful what you wish for, Campbell will fight the winner of Casamayor Katsidis anyway.

    amir khan needs a ****ing slap,he needs to fight his mandatory,but that wont happen bcoz thaxton can punch.hype job isnt the best in britain nevermind being good enough or high to fight the no.1 in the world.

    Thaxton was offer 100K but his managment turned it down as they thought it was not enough. Hopefully winner of Thaxton vs Romonov will fight Khan but if Romonov wins I doubt its going to happen because Romonov is WBA#2 and he wouldnt want to risk losing a title shot.

    I wouldnt exactly call him a hype job.But because of the media and terrestrial TV coverage since his Amatuer career his under alot pf public scrutiny.Khan is a decent fighter but his not polished enough yet to be able to deal with a veteran like Nate yet.To be honest although he seems to be wanting to move on from domestic level and has earnt that right id rather he clean up completely and beat Thaxton first before looking at world honours.

    The problem with Warren is that he takes all his fighters along the same route.Khan may have won the commenwealth title but he needs far more seasoning before he looks at world honours.

    Warren is trying to manufacture a world title shot against WBO interim holder Katsidis, my come back and bite him on the arse though as it has with Alex Arthur, because yoiu know damn well Frank doesnt want any part of Guzman really!

    Khan hasnt earned anything that warrants a title shot, beat Thaxton then Romanov then start calling out world champions!

    Warren guides his fighters along the easy route.Khans ranking is only down to Warrens influence on the WBO nothing more.Frank doenst like risking his investments and certainly wont risk a cash cow like Khan after 16 or so fights.

    I just hope we do not have to put up with Khan ever winning a version of the world title.

    It's an argument that's been made many times, but how you fit Maccarinelli v Haye, Lockett v Pavlik, Arthur v Guzman into this theme?

    Haye - Macca was a calculated risk, Enzo couldve won and it was a money fight. I have a feeling Big Mac put his foot down aswel.

    Warren wanted Arthur to inherit the full WBO title, thats why he got him an easy interim fight, but aparently Guzman wants to stay at super feather now...oops.

    Lockett isnt a money maker so you might aswel get him a shot at the title when it comes along, it worked out for Gavin Rees, but Lockett will seriously fall short againt Pavlik.

    Very easily its called the WBO. As for Haye Macc Warren took and educated gamble.We know what happened there. The result will be exactly the same for Arthur and Lockett.
