only seen bits of it myself, but after the fight he said he had lost it by not getting into the early rounds enough, and thought it was the right outcome

Fair do's meant to be a good scrap. Knockin off in a minute then gunna watch it! He's a friend of a friend Murray and my mate loves him.

I thought he did well to cope with the knockdown but I do worry a little about him getting between styles and I think he has to go up but obviously that's a bit of a worry, he'll be there soon id think depending on whether he gets a shot next . I can imagine khan winning another title but I can also see him losing it in his first defence as well .

Virgil hunter seems anxious to really work on him and is encouraging him to spend a lot more time in the states.

He won't do it but he'd be better leaving it 2-3 years picking a few belts up where he is and working on his defence.

He never looks like he's sparred enough to me in the build up either.

Hasn't really got the power or the chin to go up again IMO.

you have a piont there, might be a bit stronger at a higher weight, he is big at the moment, maybe his hand speed and movement could keep him out of the way , then again the bigger lads will be hitting him even harder

He can't get out the way of them now Edge. I don't rate Garcia as a big puncher and the other fella who done him weren't known as a big hitter either.

Be a big risk with his defence and head movement the way it is IMO. Loves a war though so I reckon he will.

Not half he does you could see him trying to avoid it at the weekend but it was bubbling there . The fact that he loves to battle is the biggest thing that surprises me about his lack of popularity , it's exactly those sort of fights so many boxing fans crave.

He's cracking to watch. I'm in your boat Sheeds. That's why the likes of Gatti are loved. He was never a great boxer either. Even though he's not I think some perceive him to be a bit arrogant.

He shouldn't get a license after the Haye fight in my book. It's sad to see.

No matter what he's done as a pro he still got the medal on the biggest amateur stage and it's a shame for him he'll be remebered as one of the biggest ****bags in british boxing history.
