    Yes he will slow a bit, but I feel he will still be too fast for Kotelnik. I think he will feel better in the ring at 140.

    Like i said he should win a UD but can he keep avoiding kotelnik for a full twelve. Personally i think khans chin will not improve moving up to 140, im counting on his defence improving massively, being faster than ever and not taking so many risks in a fight when he can comfortably win a decision.

    Kotelnik has enough power full stop, look at the way he fights, he fights for the decision rather than the KO most of the time, not to mention some of the guys hes fought have never been stopped. The GF seems to think Kotelnik is some feather fisted weak champ, i hope khan and his team are not thinking that. Fact is nobody has dominated this guy yet which means hes quite durable at the world level.

    Khans handspeed wins this fight for him.....In the Prescott fight all Khan was talking about in the build up was his bodyfat percentage and how low he had got it down to.... Khan has shifted the weight off his shoulders into his legs now...... Khan can win this...he should then vacate and get back in with the Lightweights IMO.... :yep

    He seems to move too much in a fight, cover a lot of unnecessary distance. That would make anyone tired over the course of 12 rounds. Defensive masters such as PBF and Pernell Whittaker do not waste energy in this way. No doubt Roach will have him in fantastic shape and, if he can execute the perfect gameplan, he can win on points. If he gasses, though, he's in trouble.

    Kotelnik is a MODERATE hitter. But it only taks a light hitter to detach Khan from his senses, I think Kotelnik will win by 10th round K.O

    Good points.

    He does really need to relax in the ring more, become more natural, more fluid, not waste energy doing too much. I am sure Dr.Roach has picked up on this and would have been working with Khan to improve in this area of his game.

    Good luck amir.

    Im hoping he puts in a good performance. there's far too much hate and negativity surrounding the young lad.

    Ignore the haters and bring a world title home lad!!!!

    Kotelnik has that tight defence and continous stream of bothersome punches. Much like Wright. Wright continously bothered Vargas despite not having the power to ko him. He did have the power to bother him and keep him honest.

    Kotelnik also had bothersome punches for Witter.

    Not being a puncher is one thing. Not being able to keep a guy honest is another. Mayweather for example isn't a puncher but you stil don't want him to hit you for the hell of it. Malignaggi isn't a puncher but Hatton, Cotto etc wouldn't mind take 4 of his punches to get him on the ropes.

    I think Kotelnik can keep a guy honest.
