    No-one in UK has heard of Kendall Holt, whereas Katsidis is known. Katsidis is coming off wins, whereas Holt would be coming off two straight losses and had to quit last time out.

    I'd much rather see Khan/Katsidis to be honest, and it's a much easier sell.

    stfu dont act like Casa is a Real 140 pounder. He had just moved up in wieght and was unimpressive and fat, not in shape at all. Kahn is yet again taking an easy way out.

    I would have thought Khan nay sayers would welcome such a fight both fighters aren't exactly feather fisted.

    katsidis is capable of doing a number on khan for sure so it's a high risk low reward fight for Khan and I'd give him props for taking it.

    If he fought Kats, I would have no issues with that. Kats is a strong ferocious little fighter who has 10x better chance of beating Khan than Malignaggi ever had. Kats can knock Khan out, he is a stylistic nightmare for Khan.

    I give him more props for a fight with Kats that Paulie even though, on paper, Paulie is supposed to be the tougher fight. Paulie style suited Khan down to the ground and to use the cliche once more, styles make fights.

    Casamayor would be another completely cherry picked opponent. He'd be 39 by the time they fought ffs. :verysad

    If true then that's nuts. But I don't believe you. Why wouldn't he correct his age by now if that is the case?

    that hapens a lot with latin american sports figure, do you watch baseball? do you see all the time players getting exposed for givinh the wrong date of birth the same thing with casamayor, when they defect they have no legal documents sometimes and they can give almost about any date of birth. when you are 18 if you say you are 15 guess what you gon make more money when you sign a contract cuz you gon look years ahead of your age when you are performing

    what you call nay-sayers I call haters. They won't welcome anything Khan does unless its losing.

    I'm not from that side of the world so I wouldn't know a whole lot about that kind of thing but I guess what you are saying makes sense.

    Bull**** fights. I hope he takes El Cepillo though cause Katsidis has earned his lightweight title shot and it'd be a shame to see him skip it to get whupped by Khan over his natural weight.

    These are two sure wins for him.

    How about Funeka?
