    Ha ha ha....:yep I think that Kotelnik best chance is to take Khan into deep water.... I just cannot see Roach even letting Khan get involved in such a contest.... but heart ripping it might be if Khan does not have it going all his own way.... :yep

    Yeah. I really want Khan to win me mate. Didn't like him until he got flattened by Prescott. He was humbled and seems a better person for it. Can't argue with the fact that he's taking a few risks now either. If it goes into deep waters though like you say, I think he may still have those niggling doubts in the back of his mind.
    If this gets hard for him and he prevails then I think he'll go onto to very big things.

    I agree... before the Prescott fight he was always on about his bodyfat percentage..... Khan has toned them shoulders down and looks to have strengthened his legs up....I think that if Khan beats Kotelnik he will vacate the strap pretty quick and dive back in with the lightweights IMO... :good

    Yeah could do. I would like to see him either stay at Light/Welter and try and dominate that, but if he moves back down he has to face the best there or at the very least rematch Prescott.
    The problem he has now with moving to a world title this fast is that he has to take big fights now. He will not be forgiven by some for making an easy defense and Warren knows this. Warren has to start pulling scoop after scoop out for him. If he'd have gone the domestic/Euro route he could still use the 'learning' coppout but now once he's 'World Champ' the world will be expected from him
