Who wants to see Khan get beat again

I think that you have to be pretty naive to believe him when he says he's going to approach the fight in exactly the same way....whether he has the ability to change things is a different matter

 

Peterson already has Khan figured out, sure he had a few hiccuops early on in their first fight but he managed to come on strong and nulify Khans pitter patter flurry style, Khan cannot hurt peterson, peterson can hurt khan, if he applies the same pressure he did in rounds 5-12 early on I can see him stopping Khan. Sure people think the fight was close, as soon as Peterson started to lay on the pressure Khan looked lost,and hurt on more than one occasion. He can walk through Khans punches, as was evident throughout the second half of their first fight.

 

Me? Naive?

When Nelson interviewed him he seemed genuinely at a loss as to what he needed to do differently. Whether Roach can drum something into him, whether he can execute it and whether it will work are different questions.

 

Didn't we have this line when N'Dou fought Magic on a Hatton promoted card? N'Dou got a draw in a fight you had him losing IIRC...

 

The only thing Khan has done differently since having his head caved in is lifting his arms and banging his gloves together.

 

Why on Earth does he do that?

 

he may was well just say "That ****ing hurt me!"

 

Firm but fair:yep

I thought Khan tactically was all over all the shop last time and Roach didn't do much to correct it during the fight. A real make or break fight for Khan this rematch.

 

Don't think they're remotely similar circumstances :tired

Khan's worth a bit to GBP. I can sense the fact its going to be difficult for Lamont to get any joy with the judges unless he wins quite a bit more clearly than the first time.

 

I hate to temp fate but there has been a unusual lack of Khans payday threads!

 

I do.

Oh, and hey Gaz.

 

Not me. I think people take Khan too seriously TBH. They are very quick to slag him off, just like they are with Buncey.

He is a fairly innocent, confident, talented young fellow with average to low intelligence. Let's be honest he's probably our most talented/successful boxer at the minute and he's not a complete arse so let's get behind him!
