Khan fires a consistent jab to keep distance, Kotelnik more or less respecting it (probably not wanting to rush in right away). Khan begins whipping fast, harmless body punches around Kotelnik's high guard connecting to the flank with impunity. Kotelnik begins cutting off the ring with about thirty seconds and digs some hard shots into Khan's body. Khan wisely backs up for rest of round. 10-9 Khan
R2 Flush counter right by Kotelnik, Khan takes well, simply outworks Kotelnik. High guard, low connect percentages, Khan should take it on workrate. Khan.
Don't you guys find Khan a little too agressive? I mean he's doing everything well but one shot and bye..
Khan simply outworking Kotelnik badly through 2 rounds. Khan's rhythm, timing, and handspeed is befuddling Kotelnik right now. Kotelnik got in a good right hand though as I type this.
Kotelnik being the bully now. Willing to stalk for first half of the 2nd round while Khan circles and keeps his distance, occasionally potshotting. Kotelnik charges in with about a minute left and unleashes half a dozen hooks which mostly land on Khan's shoulder and bicep - Khan covering up well. Khan is backing up while throwing jabs. Kotelnik looking patient. As his little flurry of hooks (none of which landed flush) were his only offensive output, this is another Khan round by default. 20-18
