According to someone on another boxing forum, khans father says they are working on a fight with Ortiz for april, most likely to test the waters at 147?But wow, what a test. Honestly i give khan loads of props for this win or lose. He fights everyone! Kurt_Ward28 @BoxingAsylum Amir Khan will return to action on April 13. Victor Ortiz has been mentioned as the opponent #boxing #boxingheads Great fight.
Great post.:deal This is a toss-up fight. They both have Fragile Glass Mandibles, but Ortiz is a quitter in the mould of Bad Glass Jawson. :rofl
In the amateurs you wear headgear and fight three rounds. It's a whole other story in the pros, especially when your chin is the consistency of warm applesauce.
wow if this is true this is an amazing fight. makes me think about bradley for some reason. he fights pac. gets gift decision. cant get fights. kahn losses his title to peterson. gets koed by garcia. only to fight molina and possibly get a foty oppertunity with ortiz.. i love boxing.
Ortiz jaw and heart didnt look so bad in the fight against Berto. Interesting fight. VERY dangerous for Khan. Ortiz is a hard hitting welterweight.
Khan's hands are broken. I don't think he will be ready by April. Besides Victor is a big Welterweight he comes over 160lbs fight night
Stepping upto 147 my guess is khans chin will look stronger as it did when he initally stepped upto 140. Dont get me wrong im a big fan of ortiz despite being a brit and would cheer him on in this fight.That berto fight is one of the best fights iv seen in years!I just think khan will know him too well and have too much skill for him.
