    What excuse?

    When did I say Ajose ducked anyone?

    If Ajose beats Maidana then he'll get plenty of credit. Except for the fact that Khan and Kotelnik got there first... :lol:

    Olu, you're like Billy Nelson, but without his fighter's achievements to justify the arrogance.

    It's not like Prescott handled Khan for eight rounds then stopped him. He hit him clean and early and took him out. If you're going to hold on to that for Khan's whole career you'll end up misjudging his abilities. And I am no fan of Amir.

    He has a great variety of windmilling punches, not sure about any straight ones. He'd look good on a farm in Holland, but as for proper technique I don't think so really. And thats why he has mediocre power by the way, you can't get power if you don't really punch correctly and Ajose never has.

    Hence the poor knockout ratio and also the visible lack of power even at the lower levels, I'd expect his power at the top level to be negligible.

    It is a turn of phrase- to do th right thing, to be fair. I didn't invent it, it is is common usage and not to my mind made in a derogotary fashion.

    If you say so it just did not sound right to me as playing the black would mean not being fair.
