    I doubt Laz would even defend the fight.

    No, I don't think he would either, in fact I think I've seen both him and Darni being negative about it already.

    The only reason I could see Khan wanting this fight is it could be PPV like the Morales Maidana fight was on HBO.

    Can see Morales is going to happen though. Easy money, no risk, big name thats easy to sell, they can sell the 'rejuvenated Morales' theory. Bound to happen.

    If he beats Crolla. I don't know that its a certainty that he will. Crolla has a chance on sheer youth, and he's not going to Mexico in the heat. Thats going to be a war for however long it lasts, of course Morales is the rightful favorite, he's more skilled and the bigger puncher.

    I agree that an in-shape Crolla could do well, I imagine Morales will have enough left to beat him.

    as showed against Maidana, I think Morales has way too much experience for Crolla.

    I think Crolla will start fast and win the early rounds, Morales will catch up to him and stop him.

    Morales fight would be a joke, and after last night if Morales dont need the money that bad wont take the fight anyway.

    Hopefully Bradley comes to the table, I want Khan to hold all 5 Titles at 140 :yep

    :nono Never doubt Morales' balls. It's them that will get him into trouble by taking on fights like this.

    I dont see any point in Khan-Brook anytime soon.

    I'm Kell's biggest fan but what does he bring to the table? Khan holds 2 straps & is looking for bigger fish to fry

    In an ideal world late next year after Kell has won a world title or is there or thereabouts & Khan steps up to 147 it would be a massive fight. This fight has potential so why sell it short? Leave it to marinate & let Kell prove he belongs at the world class level first imo

    Willie Limond gave Morales trouble early on, it's conceivable that Crolla, with his youth, could give Erik similar issues.

    I know.

    Hopefully he sits it out after a few futile rounds like he did in the rubber match with Manny. Khan is not on that level, but Morales is years removed from his best form, and he was coming off the Raheem debacle then :!:

    Hopefully Bradley decides he's sat around too long and something can be sorted out. I'd rather see Khan-Mitchell than Khan-Morales, seriously.

    Khan is 3 years ahead of Brook. Khan made Zab look very old last night. He's destroy the current version of Morales.

    Khan easily beats Bradley for me. It's either that fight or he goes up an takes a crack at Berto or Ortiz.

    He could be forgiven taking a filler at this stage but it looks like he needs big fights to try and do better sales in the States.
