    First fight at light welter :deal The lineage of his title doesn't suggest potential greatness, M'Baye, Rees, Kotelnik.....Khan? ;-)

    Are you telling me any individual, such as yourself, could get a world title shot if you had a promoter such as say, Frank Warren, with no fights behind you?

    I don't see that as remotely possible, unless you can show me an example of where this has happened before.

    You're taking Roe's use of 'anyone' far too literally.

    Pete Rademacher. :hey

    Well, we'll let Roe clarify but I don't think he meant the average Joe.

    Laz your a sound fella usually, a decent poster and respectful,but your coming across as a right **** now. Stop with these bull**** assumptions that the irish fans are any more biased than other fans. Becuase apart from a very small minority of ass kissers, irish fans call the results as they see them. They are only biased in their support. its a bit ironic for you to call the irish fans deluded, whe you defend almost every single of Khans actions, and will never hear a bad word against him from anyone.

    Yeah, I reckon he clearly meant any fighter, and not that Warren could get Joey Deacon a strap :deal

    my only issue is why september? McCloskey needed to keep the momentum going and fighting before Khan would have pushed the point home about the BS cut.

    You'll have to go through Maidana and Morales if you want the WBA regular title, no way does gun shy Mckloskey or a guy living off a couple of decent punches deserve to be anywhere near the Title, even as pathetic as its become.

    plus for those fights to come of HBO would need to be behind it and they wouldn't touch McCloskey.

    McCloskey would thrash Prescott.

    119-109 or similar. If Kevin Mitchell can do it....
