    He did actually land some decent punches on Romanov. Just because Romanov walked through them, it doesn't mean Khan would.

    Yep. I thought that last round was a better round for Thaxton and it could have been a turning point if Thaxton had not picked up the cut. Thaxton always looks crap against guys like Romanov.

    Romanov is all round good and has a good chin, no one questioned that. The lad looks very capable and a guy Khan will keep away from. :-(

    Khan will never fight this bum, it would be a total waste of time [well a few minutes] and money.

    :naughty Calling Jon Thaxton a bum (twice now) is not cool. You wouldn't say it to his face, so don't say it here.

    Noone else in the UK top ten has the ability to force St Clair into that mindset imo. St Clair came to weather an eerly storm and drag Khan into deep waters in the later rounds. He just couldn't accomplish it.

    I'ne always said thaxton would beat khat but after watching taxton/romanov I think khan would now stop him.

    no doubt about it thaxtons a great fighter but romanov made him look average.

    i think khan would win by tko. cuts or referee intervening.

    thaxton has above average power at domestic level imo, but his reactions are just not what they used to be, and i think khan has gained enough experience to stay out of harms way.

    I think it is likely that we see this fight now Romanov has knocked him out. I in fact think is is still the best oponent out there for him.

    I also think Katsidis would be an easier option than Romanov, I think Romanov knocks Khan out!

    I have to admit watching the Thaxton fight at the York Hall, Jono wasn't much in it, lots of lunging with punches, looking at Romanov going back to his stall in between rounds he was hardly sweating. He was much very in control, Thaxton had his moments but was always being stalked around the ring and being put under pressure.

    :lol: :lol:

    Nah The fight is still a million miles away but if Warren fails to get Khan a title fight in July or a decent American for his stateside bow then a fight with Thaxton could come into contention. Although due to the stupid bad mouthing we have seen recently I doubt Warren would want to give Thaxton a pay day.

    Pretty pointless thread really after this weekends boxing. Its clear to see for all than Thaxton would be no match for Khan anymore.
