Re: Khan v Earl set for December 8th (Khans in trouble now!)
Fancy Khan to win in style actually. A boxing lesson and probably a late stoppage. Thaxton would have been more interesting imo :)
Kevin Mitchell would hand Khan his arse

But regarding the fight, Amir's showing courage and desire to make the right steps in my opinion, but I got to agree with the others who reckon that Amir'll pull through this one. Katsidis' performance over the previous weekend showed that he's no great shakes, and if Earl lost to him, no matter that it was entertaining, Earl is nowhere near world level. Amir is on the rise, and Earl is on the wane, and I reckon Khan will be too quick, and will outbox Earl into the floor. If he keeps his bloody hands up.
He probably got it from the ricky hatton forum, Someone had posted it on there as the 'dunstable today' is their local rag!

Got it through my Boxing news feed :)

That's why he's got to keep his hands up and have a good guard. He's always dropped his hands, and the first time he did against Limond, he got himself in trouble. All I'm saying, if he can keep his hands up and fight out of a tight guard, he can win. If he showboats or doesn't hold his guard, Earl will flatten him.
Re: Khan v Earl set for December 8th (Khans in trouble now!)

That's why I said about the Limond fight increasing his chances of beating Earl. They now know for definte Khan has to be totally on the ball at all times. If he takes the piss or goes all reckless gung-ho stylee Earl could end the show.. And Earl DEFINTELY aint meant to end the show.
Might work out lucky for Khan he experienced his first taste of going through the shit against Limond instead of Earl ;)
Re: Khan v Earl set for December 8th (Khans in trouble now!)
any1 no the odds for the fight

To add to the merry-go-round, I reckon Warren will give Gavin Rees a gimmie defence in November, then promise the winner of the Earl v Khan fight a shot at him in the spring. I know I played down suggestions before, but it could be part of Warren's plan to make Khan his big money-spinner when Calzaghe retires.

I think the Rees situation has come about too soon for Khan to exploit.. especially after the Limond expose.
Ive got nothing against Rees but It's gonna be tough finding someone "world class" that wont beat him...can't wait to see the gimme they'll find him for the Calzaghe bill ;D
Re: Khan v Earl set for December 8th (Khans in trouble now!)
Khan starting to fight people that are gonna hit him back he looks like he going in the right direction not looking for the easy fights. Earl took a hell of a beating last time out will he be the same fighter.

I'm amazed that Warren has put him in with Earl to be honest.
Re: Khan v Earl set for December 8th (Khans in trouble now!)
So will Khan get alot of credit for a win? I heard Warren was trying to make a Rees Hatton fight on fightnews a while ;D
Re: Khan v Earl set for December 8th (Khans in trouble now!)
This is Khan's chance to make a statement. If he can impress against Earl then he is really moving on nicely.
Ive missed all the hype on Khan, so Im now finally becoming interested...
Re: Khan v Earl set for December 8th (Khans in trouble now!)
I'll be impressed if he beats Earl :)
