    Standard dross like this going on PPV is what kills boxing.
    If its a tenner with Pavlik and Williams thrown in ill consider it, by I think youd have to be clinically insane to buy this as a standalone PPV.

    You really must be a racist or a complete moron to put something like that on.

    Care to share with the rest of us which one or do we assume both?

    I'd lean more towards 'hawkish comedian'.

    Khan will outbox Salita, but it could be a very nice match.

    Wow, people on here are going pretty easy on Khan for a change. But most people have said, a good first defence option, and nice to seem them going for the mando, even if it does fit in nicely with Warren's overall plans. Khan win for me. Will be interesting to see if we see more aggression from Khan this time. Any links to recent Salita fights?

    Zero chance I will purchase this. I'd rather pay for the Warren Card on the 30th October then be duped into watching someone who is fast becoming the light welterweight Vlad Klitschko. Its an ok match of potential top ten talent. Is it the two best light welters in the world? Nope. Is it for the legit world title? Nope. Is is worthy of £15? Nope. Would I stay up and watch this if it was free? Nope. Is it likely to affect world boxing at its conclusion? Nope. Is it likely to be entertaining? Nope.

    I'm not a Khan hater, good luck to the lad I'm dead pleased he's doing well but this is poo pretending to be caviar.

    Stick a decent main event on to demote this to chief support and I might consider streaming it illegally.

    Khan will be miles to quick for Salita

    I really really hope Khan goes on and fights some real threats after this. I want to back him but I want to back him as a true world champion not a Calzaghe style champ.

    Get this out if the way and lets see whats next !

    Opportunity knocked for his title fight I feel. I think it'll be another 12 months or so before he's in with a true contender. I dont begrudge this fight, decent test. Khan is probably a level above Salita but at one stage I thought Salita looked the bomb. Seems to have lost ground since.

    I think after this Khan needs to look across the pond for Lamont Peterson. Get a bit of a name in the States before he goes after Campbell, Bradley et al.
