HARRISON v SPROTT, KHAN and EARL live on ITV1 & 4 17/2/07

That's what I initially thought. Not that Earls chinny but I expect this guys better and hits much harder than Kevin Bennett who had Earl in bad trouble ... But I can't get away from Earls win over Romanov (I probably overrate Romonaov, and he was rusty) plus the likes of Steve Murray was a banger too

Do you think Earl will fight Khan down the road even if he gets battered? After a couple of easy comeback wins?

Maybe this is part of the softening up process ;D

He'll get the Freitas fight next ;)

;D You're laughing I seriously considered it a possibility

Even though this is the WBO Interim Title Frietas is expected to vacate so this is basically for the real thing..

How about the winner faces Arthur later in the year? :-\

Skelton insists he's number one

Khan faces next test

Amir Khan continues his boxing education against Frenchman Mohammed Medjadji on Saturday at Wembley Arena.

His opponent was stopped in six rounds by Kevin Mitchell, another British prospect, on his last visit to London.

Medjadji has won 17 of his 20 fights but, with only three of those victories coming inside the distance, he does not appear to have the punching power to knock British boxing's hottest young prospect off course.

Khan, insisting he will not throw caution to the wind to achieve a quicker win than Mitchell, said: "I won't go in there thinking I'll knock him out. I'll just do my job, box him and if I do catch him with a good shot then I'll try and stop him."

Former British and Commonwealth lightweight champion Graham Earl promises "the fight of the night" against Australian puncher Michael Katsidis for the WBO interim world title.

The winner will be installed as world champion without throwing another punch if holder Acelino Freitas, who retired and then announced a comeback, fails to commit to a defence within 90 days.

Unbeaten Katsidis has a fearsome reputation - 19 of his 21 wins have come inside the distance, six in the first round - but the credentials of some of his opponents are obscure.

Earl, 28, from Luton admits: "I've struggled for motivation now and again. I've had a long career - 10 years - and should have been here a long time ago.

"It's going to be a great fight and I'm ready to be world champion."

Well let's be honest, when it comes to british boxing, there isn't much competition out there for him. He's destroy Harrison, he'd overpower Sprott, he'd dance around Williams and He'd just be too damn big for Gammer. Where is the competition for him, I don't think there's much for him unless he either goes to Europe or the US.

Weigh in latest

Harrison will have a 22lb weight advantage over Sprott. He scaled 18st 2lb at today's weigh-in, with Sprott, who is also four inches shorter at 6ft 1in, coming in at 16st 8lb.

What you saying mate?

Are you trying to tell me that someone somewhere is praying to some kind of god that Graham Earl comes through an absolute grueller, then gets upgraded to full champion, then goes through the motions for 12 months knocking over two or three tomotoe cans third on the bill, then gets made a 'secure you and your family for life' offer to fight Amir Khan?

I never heard of such a thing.

Forget Earl, trust me on this one guys, he will NOT get past Katsidis.
