Is Andriy Kotelnik a Hard Puncher - Lets examine the resume

Wtf? Khan ko1

 

if khan beats him,and beats him well,not with a axe wound in koteniks head,then he will have my upmost respect,don't see it happening though

 

I think this is a tough fight for Khan but i think this weight may suit Khan as he was seriously weight drained in his last fight, i cant wait for this fight it may answer alot of questions, The jr welterweight division has some seriously good fights for Khan if he can handle Kotelnik.

 

just curious,which fight was he weight drained,ive never seen it:huh

 

It all comes down to how much, if any improvement is made to Khan's chin at 140, also how much Khan's defence has improved. Kotelnik has enough dig in his punches to trouble Khan.

This fight should answer a few questions about Khan and the Dr.Roach's effect on him.

I still think the improvement which we will see in Khan under Dr.Roach will see him though this fight.

 

Prescot fight he stated after he was weight drained at lightweight. From the guardian news paper....
"Since that fight so much has changed. I put my hand up, I thought it was going to be a walk in the park, but what happened made me realise that this is a professional sport. It happened at the right time for me. I think I maybe drained myself making the weight for the fight. There was a few things we weren't happy with in the camp. Now I'm much more focused. I've gone from a boy to a man." :deal

 

Maybe explains why he has gone up a weight...

 

I think he did look drained for the Prescott fight, but looked better for the ***an and Barrera fights.

 

If he gets hit right he'll go down. For him, its all about the new tactical discipline and movement he has been learning with Freddie Roach. Relying on a magical chin boost because of 5lbs, from the one that was put down hard by light punching Limond, to one that is capable of taking Kotelnik's punches is optimistic in the extreme.

Khan will have to get hit very rarely to be successful in the fight.

 

He is quite big for lightweight and it was only a matter of time before he was gonnar step up a weight , he may suit this weight better even thoe there are some real bangers in this division..

 

Junior Witter did an interview in Boxing Monthly asked about Kotelnik regarding Khan..... I can't remember too much of it tbh, other than that he expects Khan to be stopped at some stage.

I will post it when I get home

 

I think we all know that Kotelnik has enough power to trouble Khan.

 

140 is Khan's natural weight, Warren messed right up trying to add muscle with all that weight lifting bull **** he was getting Khan to do. Khan by adding that muscle was still working inside that 135 limit add to that Khan is a big frame 5’10 guy. Because Khan being a gym freak he still made the 135 limit with very low body fat and being top half heavy with stick skinny legs.

 

That doesn't change the fact that when he was stick thin in the amateurs he was decked by an average puncher in a shocking way. Not just down...but the way he was down was alarming. Before he even started the weight lifting in the pros his chin looked suspect.

Don't expect 5lbs to cure the worlds problems. You'll be in for a horrible awakening. Just hope he moves as good as he claims in the fight.
