    Default Khan v McCloskey

    I heard Khan on the radio this morning offering McCloskey a fight

    think about that?

    Looks like it will happen I think HBO will accept the fight and Khan will stop him within 5 rounds.

    I'm actually not that bothered. It's his next fight I'll be more judgemental about.

    For now, I'm fairly pleased with another domestic scrap. Gotta be better than the Haye/ Harrison tangle ay?

    I don't like it because we could have had Wlad against Haye instead. Why not have this one a month earlier or later? It is such an insignificant fight. I would have much preferred to see a clash of the chinny HW belt holders.

    I don't know who McCloskey is.
    Should be on an undercard.

    Not a bad fighter I don't think he is anywhere near world class put on paper it is not a bad fight really McCloskey is ranked at ten by the Ring and is number 5 for both the WBA and WBC, the fact is his resume is terrible and this is a huge jump up in class, he relies on his reflexes and I think Khan will steam roll him personally.

    Basically, McClosky's level would of made for a good fight for Khan 6 or 7 fights ago...

    I like this fight better than Peterson. McCloskey is tricky/awkward, has a couple of one punch KO's and is rated no.10 by The Ring.

    Obviously Khan is a strong favourite but barring McCloskey freezing, and getting blown out early, there are far worse opponents.

    i agree, i think his awkwardness might be a problem with khan

    he doesnt waist much either, if he can stay accurate with khan it could be a good fight

    If Amir keeps moving and attacks at high output at different angles instead of straight-forward, I don't think Paul will be able to keep up.

    I'm looking forward to seeing Linares vs Murray on the undercard to be honest if it get's signed.

    I really like the look of this fight. McClsokey is an unbeaten, European champion so Sky can sell it very easily, the fight could be part of a split site PPV and it's not bad when you look at the who's who of busy fighters in the division (Alexander, Bradley, Judah, Mabuza, Matthyse, Olusegun and Holt)
