Khan v Earl - The verbals have started!

if the fight goes past the 5th khan will get KTFO

khans stoppages have been ok but the medjaji fight was kinda dodgey

 

What if he stops Earl before katsidis did? Do you think people will sit up and take notice?

 

If Khan said that Earl should have retired after the Katsidis fight, then why is he fighting him?

 

this fight is a total no brainer for me.
khan is too quick, too big and too skilled for earl, all the talk about earl being a banger is hype too, mainly coming from earl himself.
take it from me, save your money cause 6-1 might as well be 600-1, earl is getting the granny beat out of him inside 2.

 

Khan will have too much for Earl in my view. Graham said if he can't beat Amir, then he may aswell hang up the gloves. Well, I'm here to tell you that Earl will be retiring come Dec 8th!

Khan has too much speed, is getting stronger with time. It's all about Khan-Thaxton early next year!

Warren couldn't pronounce Katsidis properly. And what was that rubbish about the winner being the No.1 lightweight despite what Thaxton thinks?

Bring on the hype, never mind the reality!

 

Ramirez didn;t win against Earl, I scored that 7 rounds to 5.

If Earl's defence was more than covering up and tucking the elbows, he could be better.

 

Khan has skill?

He's still speed reliant at the moment, lacks the heard movement and also can be hit by straight rights.

 

Im a fan of Earl in the ring, but he has got my backing now that iv heard him talk out of the ring. Sounds like an honest lad, well spoken, not big headed and the person that will hopefully end the bul**** that is Amir Khan

 

i don't like the way amir talked to earl, earl was pretty reserved khan was just totally out of character, i cant wait to see if he can stand by all those harsh words come december

 

guys. This fight will be a mismatch. Earl has seen better days, & is coming off a systematic beating by Katsidis. It was a brave performance by earl, many boxers would have quit, but Earl kept going, & even scored a flash knockdown. But lets be realistic, he took a ridiculous amount of clean punches, & to be honest I was worried for Earl after the fight.

earl at his best wasnt exactly unbeatable either, remember most thought he lost to Bobby Vanzie twice, then he was handed his first defeat againt Ricky Burns who at the time was only a 9 fight novice, was brought in to fight Earl at 48 hours notice, & Ricky had to step un in weight, but still managed to easily outbox Earl.
Kevin Bennet also had earl out on his feet, & Earl was one punch away from being knocked out by Bennett. Earl also clearly lost to Ramirez last year, but got the decision. Another fight where he recieved a lot of punishment. Without a doubt earls best win was against Romanov. However you could make the argument that Romanov was ring rusty, & he too seemed to hurt earl in the later rounds. However, it was a great win for Earl & I would never try to take that away from him.

Also, people make the HUGE mistake of underrating Willie Limond, who I feel is a better fighter than Graham Earl Despite Earls great win over Romanov & the fact Earl held a better title than Limond. I also feel Earl will be at a huge height disadvantage, Khan is about five inches bigger than Earl, & surely will have a much longer reach than the short armed smaller Earl, & the reach advantage Khan has will be a huge factor IMO.

Khan to win in the first half of a one sided fight.

 

Khan's biggest test by far. A good match up. A lot is being made of Earl's last loss but personally I do not think it will bother him much and he could be able to pull off the stoppage.

 

Perfect caveat there :happy

Earl was imo beaten by Romanov and will be bashed up by a slick boxer type.
