ive read a lot of crap on this board about this ppv and we shouldent pay for it becuase it is for his commonwealth belt etc.i find it really annoying and the thing is your all wrong . he is actually defending his WBO Inter-Continental lightweight title :rofl
I doubt Khan has the bottle to face the top guys at lightweight from either WBC, WBA, IBF or WBO anyone in a top 20 ranking with those guys would probably beat Khan. I would expect Khan to chase the WBU or IBO belts and call himself a true world champion like Hatton.
I am sure that if Khan fails to win a world title he will look back on his days as inter-alphabetty 'champion' with real pride. At least the likes of Herol Graham and Henry Cooper can say they left an imprint on the sport, winning British, European and Commonwealth honours. (Back in the days when the Commonwealth strap meant something - as these days a promoter can cherrypick a selection of bums from Africa :deal)
