just looking, this kotelnik that khan is going to fight is a light welterweight. looking at some recent past champs i really couldnt see khan getting past any of them......ricky hatton (would love to see this), miguel cotto, de la hoya (always seems up for a fight, if the tickets sell), arturo gatti, floyd mayweather jnr, juan urango, and if khan really fancied a british affair why not junior witter. witter is always trying to call hatton out why not take a side step? then of course there is the pacman himself, multi weight champ who could quite easily make the weight for the fight? oh no wait a moment, freddie roach has already said that khan will never fight pac as long as he spars with him and because they are great friend! what bull!!! ricky hatton is many many times the fighter khan is and look what the pacman did to him! manny would knock khan into the middle of next month never mind next week!
imho khan will have this fight against kotelnik, if he looses its curtain down and bring up the lights, shows over. if he beats him one of the champs from the other divisions will fight him to unify the divisions.........and they'll win, curtain, lights etc etc etc

he has had hand picked fights against journeyman boxers (one of whom showed him to be seriously flawed as a boxer) to promote the hype. the one decent boxer he has fought (barrera), the fight was stopped due to a gash to the head. a gash that was caused by a clash of heads and should have been registered as a stoppage with neither fighter winning as apposed to a TKO to khan. khan then refused a rematch stating he has nothing to prove against barrera, many people disagree!
khan will never fight anyone of any note due to the fact he will get his ar$3 handed to him on a plate, which he will then drop!!
the IBO currently have 7 boxers above khan in their rankings, one of those being bredis prescott, who as mentioned previously has already exposed khans major major weakness!!
So what if he has a weak chin? There have been plenty of great fighters who've had dodgy chins - Tommy Hearns, Pernell Whittaker - some might even say Lennox Lewis (although I think his chin was a lot better than is made out).
Khan has extremely fast hands. He's accurate, puts together great combinations and has every shot in the book. What's to hate?
As for giving Barrera a re-match - WHY? He was knocking the snot out of him. Barrera could have plasteritoed his hands and included a couple of horshoes and he STILL wouldn't have beaten him. Barrera isn't the fighter he was and Khan is too good. Period.
Maybe it's because he's Asian. Naz had the same problems ...

winning like never before. decoys. mouse traps. chicken wings. lollie pops. shepperds. the crusher. grapples. big league. In 1935 The Dragon Slayers as they were known defeated Canterbury bulldogs 91-6, which is still the biggest win in the Club's History. In 1907, the St George district had a club in the Sydney rugby union competition. Interestingly, the team's area was referred to as the 'Illawarra suburbs'. A resolution to form a St George rugby league club was made at a local meeting held in early 1908, but the movement faltered and collapsed. St George, wearing the district colours of red and white, played in the NSWRL's Third Grade competition in 1910, and formed a President's Cup team in 1911. References were found at the time to district teams being called 'The Saints'.the perfect 11

a) Brilliant use of the phuck .
b) I'm going to listen to you after your Froch Taylor predictions, but do you really think Mosely is better than Pacquiao?
Temptation, greets you like your naughty mate,
The one that used to get you in bother,
But one that you could never bring yourself to hate.
