    Well done,Amir!

    Impressive victory!

    A question: does anyone know whether he can still make the weight for his present weight division or not?

    Well done indeed Amir , but Earl looked a little bit like damaged goods , think the Katsidis fight took a bit out of him. Also look at the pics its like a middle beating up a feather !

    Earl is not the number 1 in the country at all. Not by ANY ranking system, the British champion is and that is Thaxton.

    Impressive victory any which way the haters spin it.

    Look how long it took for Katsidis to bury him - four rounds of brutal bombs. Khan does it in about 1 minute. great stuff.

    Vicotry looks more impressive than it is. Earl was past it.

    Thaxton is the fight that makes sense next...

    Credit to Khan tho - he's beginning to fill out quite nicely, and very impressive speed/accuracy.

    I agree that his chin is questionable - but Audley had/has much deeper problems than his suspect chin. Inconsistancy, low work-rate, no lateral movement.

    Amir is a much better fighter than Audley!

    His chin isn't the best, but he has the heart to get up and keep fighting and took some good shots against Limond! after he was knocked down.

    Personally his power speed and accuracy will make him hard to beat and future World title challenger or holder.

    He should face Romanov, Thaxton then a US fighter, then world title.
