    What you think isn't fact. When you can realise this you will be a much more complete boxing fan.

    You don't know what Khan will be.

    I'm sure when Robinson was dropped by someone with no kos people may have said he won't be much.

    I'm sure when Ali was run 6-4 against Jones and stunned by a small man that Ali wouldn't amount to much (notice the huge odds against him v Liston, I think 10 or 12 to 1).

    I remember many saying Juan Diaz won't be anything because he got dropped by some randoms. Then he ran through Freitas and is now the WBA/WBO champ going into a fight for the IBF title.

    Anyone who saw a super middleweight ROCK Haye BADLY and drop him, were made to think this man won't really make it. Then he got stopped by Thompson. Now he is the European champ and has a chance of being one of four REAL champs at 200!

    This is just going by your ridiculous chin theories. The chin doesn't make a fighter. It is an element but it isn't the be and end all. How do you know in a few years the WBO champ isn't a weak puncher and Warren easily makes the fight for Khan? How do you know Khan doesn't fight a Sven Ottke? Sure he might lose some but so what.

    Khan just has to beat Earl and then Thaxton to have received a respectable pro record. He can lose everything after that but then he can say he was the best in Britain and Commonwealth.

    He is the Commonwealth champ, it really is time you recognise this. That is one of three major titles using the traditional route (which he says he wants to).

    Fewkes will get destroyed within fur rounds by Khan. He has very limited power and has only faced bums. The Tonchev fight was a step up but Tonchev did not come to win or throw punches, Fewkes likes to attzck and leave himself open. Maybe in around 10 fights he could have been something but at the moment he is way out of his depth.
