    Pretty good news. Thought this was the best potential fight when it was rumoured he would fight the winner of diaz/malignaggi. Nice intro to the US.

    What about Maidana being mandatory though?

    I don't like Malignaggi but I think he takes this one unless Khan is able to hurt him.

    interesting fight, tricky for khan, someone who can come close to his speed will be intriguing..
    i see khan coming through a few tricky patches to win!

    Great match up, certainly a step up in class for Khan.

    Is there a date set for this fight yet???

    Good and appropriate fight for both guys. Khan by UD.

    Khan KO. I think Paulie's punch resistance has deteriorated since he fought Cotto. He was hanging on for dear life in the 2nd round against Hatton and was rocked in his first fight with the feather-fisted Diaz. Paulie isn't really that elusive either. Hatton was finding him at will.

    No way man! Malignaggi may be *** but that *** can box and he has a solid chin. There is no way that Kahn will get rid of that *** like he did Salita.

    Good fight and a good test for Khan first fight in the US. It'll be a competitive fight with Khan winning by UD.

    This is not a horrible step up for Khan..... Malignaggi has only been dominated ONCE in his entire career, against Hatton. Cotto and Juan Diaz he gave a good fight to and beat the other.... its not like Khan is some champ or something, this is a good step up for him.

    That being said the only reason im dissapointed is Khan IS going to win this fight, its a bad matchup for Malignaggi and ill be rooting for him to win, i was hoping he could eather get Urango so he could get a solid win under his belt, i am rooting hard for Malignaggi in this one but its going to be a tough tough task.
