    jab, straight right move/Grab.

    He is a KO waiting ot happen just like Wlad.


    Excellent hand speed though and used his range well, fills out nice at light Wleter, and beat a top class fight in Kotelnick who was unlucky to lose to Witter

    Wladimir is not a KO waiting to happen, he confirmed that long ago.

    Nothing wrong with that at all. I think a big fight gimmee against Morales would be good, also a deal with the WBA to avoid Maidana etc. Perhaps they could sanction Morales as a challenger.

    I guess Khan versus Hatton would do crazy figures.

    That's just a yawn. How long has he been a ko waiting to happen? A long ****ing time. Wlad has been taught to protect his weaknesses. The same thing is happening with Khan. In this way they are similar. If you think this is some sort of news flash, you are mistaken.

    Hardly, I can see where your coming from and I agree but Khan hardly just paws slowly with his jab, pushing opponents off with it round after round. Khan's in and out and throws flurries, then gets out of there or holds to make sure he doesn't get banged. He did take some decent shots well lastnight, and what impressed me most was that when he would take a few shots he'd tuck up and then would coe back with a better flurry himself.

    I agree with the main points what your saying though, they know what they have to work with and know Khan's flaws, if it works for him then thats what they have to do.

    It will also make for Khan to be in some exciting fights too, theres always that risk of him getting banged, but his handspeed makes his fights good to watch.

    If you protect yourself properly you are less likely to be knocked out.

    I would of thought he would try to take Kotelnik out with a barrage at some pt in the fight like we are accustom to seeing.Didn't happen, nice body shots.Offensively that was the only stand out.He was defensive for the most part using his legs to get away.It's a new Khan just not a crowd pleasing style.Kotelnik isn't a puncher Khan could of put on a bit of a show for the fans.

    agreed but do you think it will be harder for khan than it has been for wlad as the quality in the heavyweight division has been pretty poor and khans possible fights could be tougher than wlads have been

    Khan will never be as painfully boring to watch as Wlado.

    Yes. He looks actually more like Lennox Lewis now, big difference. He also appears to be knocked the **** out like Lennox. Gets Starched by One Punch and it's Ovaaaah:lol:

    He is typical British fighter still and will always be.:yep
