Maidana couldnt stop Kotelnik, what makes people think Khan will ?

He doesnt look quite as fast at 140 though judging by the footage thats being released, which is worrying considering thats his advantage over nearly all boxers.

 

Hopefully his chin will be a bit better at 140 though.

 

Maidana tired after 6 rounds.

Don't think Khan will.

But Amir doesn't need to KO Kotelnik to win.

 

No, he didn't

 

Then his workrate went down for another reason.

 

Stop talking **** yourself,Khan nuthugger!

The reigning and defending champ has to travel over to the UK to fight a challenger in his backyard.It tells you a lot about Kotelnik's promoter and Kotelnik's lack of markebility.
The Ukranian was robbed big time of a deserved victory vs Mbaye.......on British soil. Witter would have never won his fight with Kotelnik on neutral soil outside the UK.Nevertheless,Kotelnik will fight again on British soil.
He is no protected fighter with a padded record who has never fought outside his home turf.He has gone the stony path of pain and sorrow in order to be a world champ and defend his title unlike a certian fighter from the UK who hasnt done **** to deserve a shot at a world title.
Kotelnik has fought in Germany,Poland,Ukraine,Austria,France,Hungary,the UK,Venezuela,and so on.
He doesnt deserve to be robbed of his hard fought right to call himself a world champ on British soil against a fighter who is not worthy of a world title shot anyway!

Kotelnik won almost all rounds against Mbaye in their rematch on British soil.Nonetheless,they somehow managed to declare it a draw! A daylight robbery of a deserved victory it was!

I very much hope that I am wrong,but I fear they will somehow manage to rob Kotelnik of his belt on British soil.Kotelnik is no draw in his adopted Germany.You cant make a lot of bucks with him.Khan is far more marketable than Kotelnik.Money is the name of this game!
All the odds are against Kotelnik!

I will root for Kotelnik and very much hope that he knocks the British based Pakistani out so that the judges wont be needed.

 

Most fighters at 140 with decent boxing skills I would favor over Maidana.

Holt, Witter, Bradley, ect

Point is Khan dosen't have to stop him. He has use his speed and run and potshot Kotelnik and run some more.

If he stands his ground....well you know

 

although i don't care for khan has more speed..the punch you don't see knocks you out
