    Has Amir Khan finally conceeded to the fact that he can't compete with the world class operators at lightweight?

    Warren has him billed to be fighting Oisin ***an for the WBA intercontinental light middleweight championship?!

    This moves news to me. I was keen to see where he'd be placed on the PPV bill after been exsposed. He's been bumped fighting before Nicky Cook and Macrinelli.

    He's fighting at LW, unless Frank Warren has decided to skip out LWW and WW and move Amir straight to LMW:lol: :patsch

    :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

    Khan has perhaps the worst Glass Jaw in the sport. His career is going nowhere. He is a complete joke and fraud.

    as much as khan has a bad chin, he's very talented and i reckon will still go on to win a world belt at some point.

    I have no idea What Mickey Mouse title Khan is fighting for, but it is at LW.

    No! it's not true, it was a misprint by all accounts.

    Anthony Small is fighting for the belt.

    I did ASK if he was, I didn't state he was as i found it hard to believe.

    Khan won't be fighting at 154.

    ***an is a career 135lb'er who had his last fight at 144.

    If Kahn went from 135 to 154 he would get Ko'd pretty quick. You cant jump that much in weight that fast unless your Roberto Duran and even he had some trouble at 154.
