I just hope Casamayor turns down the offer, I don't wanna see him go through what Barrera did but the lure of £400,000 might do it.

Hell if I was old and washed up I'd get my ass kicked for that amount.

I thought the Sun wasn't a reliable source?

Anyways it's shameful match making. Casamayor is past his prime. And he has no buisness fighting at 140. With that being said, I'm taking Casamayor to still beat him.

Casamayor is going in there out gunned. And he knows it. The UK will see every single dirty move in the book. He's going to rough up Con to the point where Con will be crying to ref at every oppertunity. He will take him out his game. A Con win wouldn't surprise me though. I can easily see the ref giving Con the win by DQing Casamayor. It's his only chance of winning

What a joke, Casamayor must be pushing 40 now. When is Khan going to face someone with a punch and within a decade of his own age? This is the Sun though, so I will pause before going into too much of a rant.

Really good test for Khan. A 39 yr old smaller man with a low KO%.

He was only 37 at the time.

Katsidis fought him at 135 as well, and doesnt have the size advantage Khan does

Simple fact is Khan has no chin , and will continue to peddle bullshit fights until the public gets sick of it.
We all know if he fights someone in thier prime with a punch he will be knocked out , what limited respect i had for Khan has now gone , he talks the talk but cannot walk the walk.

is Khan playing Top Trumps with the past their prime boxing names?

Casamayor is quite impressive for a "stay busy" fight.

He's still P4P no.1 dirty.

You Khan haters could end up loving this as Casa roughs him up, then when the old boy has had enough you still get a good whinge about what a cunt Khan is.

Joke, simple as. Casamayor getting old and not being able to make 135 is simply not a good enough reason for him to be fighting at 140, let alone fighting Amir Khan. If Khan is a world champion at 140, then he should defend his belt against 140 fighters. Hell, even Andriy Kotelnik, Junior Witter and Paul McCloskey are rated higher than Casamayor at 140.

I would like to see Khan fight McCloskey, that would be a good fight.

Didn't Khan said he was looking, at some point, to fight great fighters past their prime?
