    Yes, that is the biggest question of all.

    Did you know, the real story of Calzaghe-Kessler was not what happened in the fight, but the # of ppl who texted Bunce to ask him what he thought!

    If Khan is ambitious himself he should be asking for Romanov. I want to see him fight Murray now as the guy looked very good against meager. Looks big and strong at the weight and could match Khan for Strength unlike the super-feathers he is fighting.

    At the moment i find it impossible to support Khan in anyway at all. It's a shame as he is a good British prospect and we should be getting behind him but this is pathetic now.

    Until Khan fights a decent fighter i cannot see myself ever getting behind him. Its just a shambles.

    Probably unfair to compare Collins with the other two as his reign tended to overlap peoples primes. Benn I agree never shirked a fight.

    Naz... hmmmmm...

    He signed with Warren in '94 (according to Wikipedia) up until 1998. I'm not sure whether this was before the McCullough fight or after. But if it was after McCullough then his opposition with Warren was;

    Peter Buckley
    John Miceli
    Vincenzo Belcastro
    Antonio Picardi
    Freddy Cruz
    Laureano Ramirez Padilla
    Armando Castro
    Sergio Rafael Liendo
    Enrique Angeles
    Juan Polo Perez
    Steve Robinson
    Said Lawal
    Daniel Alicea
    Manuel Medina
    Remigio Daniel Molina
    Tom Johnson
    Billy Hardy
    Juan Gerardo Cabrera
    Jose Badillo
    Kevin Kelley
    Wilfredo Vazquez
    Wayne McCullough

    Hardly a great lineage. And considering he was 20-0 after beating Robinson, I would have expected greater opposition after that!

    Nope - he is doing what he does best - keeping the gravy train rolling. He wont take any significant risks till the ITV contract is up. Even then expect him to go for the path of least resistance. Its **** but that is how it is.

    Khan is really going to come unstuck when he fights a top live fighter.

    Warren says he has at least another 3/4 fights until he even thinks of fighting for a world title. Well sorry Fwank but what does fighting Gainer give Khan at this stage in Gainers career?

    I truly believe Warren has seen something we havent, and he is milking Khan for what he is worth until he loses.

    The ITV contract IS up. Gomez was the last fight in that contract.

    Utter disgrace.

    Perhaps Khan should stop calling himself world class now?

    You do realise that when he steps up he will do an Enzo and **** himself when someone hits him with real power. And it will all be his fault.

    No, he's just doing what he's always done. How many lightweights did Hatton fight?

    Quite a few.....

    In Calzaghe's last defence prior to the Lacy fight he fought a light middle!
