9 fights later - Not bad, ver few would have begruged him that back when this thread started and NOBODY would have 3 fights ago
Hindsight is a wonderful thing In 12 months time when Audley has taken out both Klitchko's someone will bump up last week's Prizefighter threads!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
in my mind he's not really world champion, he's got a paper strap if thats good enough then fine but it shouldn't be and it doesn't sit well with me. I suppose we'll be calling Haye, the heavyweight champion of the world when he defeats Nicko, we complain about the title being diluted and these alphabet soup ABC's, but then we endorce and recognise them.
If he hadn't been Warren's cash cow he wouldnt have had a) The priviledge of being trained by Freddie Roach or b) A world title shot lined up 2 fights after an embarassing loss to a nobody.
credit to khan & warren for delivering a title so quickly. still say kotelnik was very made to measure for amir. :bbb the next year or so is gonna be fascinating in this guys career.
yeah take the title out of it and khan beat a solid bottom half of the top 10 operator. :good still an awful lot to prove to the naysayers. :deal
