    Good fight if it happens. Khan is the higher level operator, but glass will be in danger of shattering every second of that fight. This is the kind of adrenaline inducing fight Khan should be taking to get fans demanding he get a shot at the bigger names.

    Quillin vs Jacobs is a pretty good fight.

    Yeah might be good for Khan. If he did the "impossible" and actually stopped Ruslan, that Floyd or Manny fight instantly becomes a near certainty.

    Ruslan is massively overrated on here. Tim Bradley badly stunned him. Tim. Bradley.

    Khan will never take a fight with a puncher while he waits for a Floyd fight

    Surely Khan won't be this stupid.

    When promoters come up with ideas like this they should think to themselves 'Let's not do this, this is a little ****ed up.' This is like ice and fire. Provodnikov has too much heart. That's just my two cents. It's entertainment and a sport, not a brain damage competition.

    This fight is a joke, why is Khan ducking the entire WW division?

    Like Song Ice and Fire? I find Khan annoying at times I will admit, but actually having his tarred skull mounted on the flagpole outside of Barclays is just a bit much dont you think? :D

    Let's assume it's happening, it might not but....

    After telling the world Mayweather is frightened to fight him Mr Khan turns down Brook AGAIN for another Light Welterweight who has lost 3 of his last 5?

    Khan fans come and defend this potential fight, give me a giggle :lol:

    No, I mean two polar opposites. There's an equal chance of Provodnikov taking another grueling beating, without relenting and losing huge on points (granted Malignaggi is tough, but Provodnikov is lock jaw tough), as there is Khan being put in a coma. He's tall and doesn't have that thick of a neck. I'm exaggerating how badly Khan would be knocked around, but you just don't know.

    Yeah I was just playing around. Song of Ice and Fire is the actual series name (at least for the books) that became the popular HBO series Game of Thrones. Which is known for things like decapitation and mounting the severed heads.

    Also, I more or less agree with your thoughts on the fight. Its a good fight in my view TBH.
