    Not surprised after hearing Khan's comments on Buncey's show. Kotelnik will beat him.

    Khan says: "I've seen Kotelnik a few times and I've always been impressed by him but once my trainer Freddie Roach works out the game plan to beat him it's my job to execute it on the night as I did effectively against Barrera."

    Didn't Amir recently call Kotelnik the worst champion ever on Setanta?

    Yes.

    He will at the very least take Khan 12 rounds I would think, that will be interesting in itself. Kotelnik recently beat Argie puncher Maidana on points, so I would think there is little chance of Khan's featherdusters KO'ing him.

    yup.

    perhaps we'll have Calzaghe vs Warrren; Rees vs Khan in his first defence now that Gavin has signed with Joe.

    Fair play to Khan, I've had my digs at him recently but this is a proper fight against a guy his own size. Admittedly Kotelnik is no superman but a good fight nonetheless.

    I'l be backing him again for this one !

    Khan moving up in weight...interesting. Does that mean he couldn't make lightweight anymore, because a fight against Diaz at lightweight for a world title would have been the easier option than Kotelnik

    Kotelniks good but imo he was lucky to get the decision against maidana .... Maidana attacked him alnight and Kotlenik covered up for most of it .... Khan will outwork and beat Kotelnik .. im sure Freddie will have the gameplan ready ! .... In and out counterpunching at speed ... Kotelnik will have to open up to match Khans speed and that will be Kotleniks downfall ....

    I'm sure Frank may have been able to arrange a shot at a suddenly vacant title.
