    Nah Kahn will win........this is a set up to make him look like a world champ.

    Kahn UD and then my suggested defences of the title.......then i can see him eventually step up real comp and get sparked out.

    By the way he will never fight Prescott again.......i was reading Esquire where they said he suffered a knock down in 2008.......no it was a bloody BRUTAL KNOCKOUT-

    It has a Kahn victory written all over it......then the hype will go into overdrive

    who is he being overlooked by?
    if it's the fans then yes,probably because most of them are british on this forum.
    probably the polar opposite on the forums in the ukraine.

    do you mean underrated?,because i must admit that i feel he was aswell,i was at the witter fight and thought that kotelnik looked decent.i have only seen a few other of his fights but do think that he will be a handfull for khan.
    although i still think that khan will be too quick at either end of the fight.:good

    But the guy I was quoting above does not even seem to be a Khan fan, so he is not blinded by being patriotic, he just thinks that Kotelnik is a walk in the park for Khan.

    I think he will be a handful for Khan without a doubt, for me it is 50-50.

    Or possibly trying to get himself into contention for a Khan fight if Khan wins, big money for witter there! Especially if he's the WBC champion aswel

    It will be interesting to see just what Roach has done with Khan(we saw glimpses of a much improved defence against Barrera), all the noises coming from his camp seem positive. His chin seems to be holding up in sparring and Kotelnik isnt a big hitter.

    My prediction is that Khan will prove to be simply too fast for Kotelnik and win comftably on points if not a KO in latter rounds. By no means a given though.

    my defence would improve if i was fighting a bloke with 1 eye:yep

    but in all honesty,he is the weakest lww champ,not fast but a good solid boxer,like people have been saying,i hope the ref don't jump in while khan is fast arm punching which couldent spark me wife:bbb

    Couldnt spark your wife but could break Willie limonds jaw:think

    ...but i agree, he needs more power in his punches...something Roach says he has gained

    Witter said Khan is not somebody he has in his sights, YEAH RIGHT, if the money was offered he would take it im sure, and what big fight has he had recently that would pay as well as a clash with Khan.
