Gonna be a great night of boxing
Complete pick`em fight if you ask me with khans speed taking on kotelniks durability.
Im gonna stick to my original hunch and go with a late kotelnik stoppage though could quite easily see khan being too quick and getting on top of andreas for a late win.
no way this goes 12
Im gonna go with Kotelnik stopping him in the 8th, Kotelnik is not the biggest puncher but he still has some under rated power, Amir will end up brawling at some stage and Kotelnik looks very confident. Khan is 4/11 at the moment which I think is way over priced and like you say Hammer its more 50/50 so Kotelnik is great value.Quote:

bookies will take an absoloute hiding tonight if kotelnik wins and theyve no reason to.Quote:

It was the same thing when hopkins fought pavlik as a 5/2 underdog despite the fact only a small majority were backing kelly to win
Found this video of Khan sparring..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9ZrKh...er_profilepageI don't know if it's just me, but I see a few of Pacquiao's moves in there somewhere. Most notably how he leans to the side, and lunges forward with his straight. It's almost a carbon copy of how Manny does it.
I'm going with Khan by TKO in the 8th.
Any idea who his sparring partner wasQuote:

Have a look in this video mate. Talks about his main sparring partners, don't know if it was any of the ones in this video though, as this was filmed in mid june.
YouTube - Amir Khan LA Diary PT2
I'm rooting for Khan. But Koltenik has great defense and will retain his belt via close decision. Like Roach been saying, Khan must conserve his energy and go to the body more. But I belieue Koltenik is the kind that has plan B and C.
That's not true at all. The majority of people were picking Pavlik to beat Hopkins.Quote:

As for Khan fight, I want Khan to win but Kotelnik is a very underrated fighter. I think it'll be a close fight that goes to the cards. I wouldn't be surprised to see Khan win an undeserved decision; given the location you have to assume a close fight would go Khan's way.
My mates gone to the fight and he says that they have upgraded his ticket cuz of poor sales so they can try and flog the rest on the doors.
For a world title fight youd expect more support for Kahn but maybe the crowd have had enough of the Warren hype. Confirms my theory that everyone who went in March went to see Barrera ;D
Good that its finally here, I've got the man who would be King by UD.
Live streams anyone? Mine just got taken out.
Does anyone know how long it is before the main event starts? Are we still like 5 hours out or what? ETA pkease, thanks.
I hope Miles is here to watch the fight live.
I believe Amir is going to come to the ring wearing a crown and to his own recorded rap song :-X;D
Missy and Miles will surely be here like baying hounds praying for him to get slaughtered again.
I like Khan and hope he wins but at the end of the if he does get knocked out cold again at least it will be funny.
He's the kind of fighter I wish well but like most I do take some small, maybe perverse satisfaction when he gets dropped.
I think for me it's the way he says 'I'm going to be world champion' with that really annyoing gormless rising inflextion when he says 'champion' like he's a delusional child telling his school teachers how he's going to be a cowboy or great magician when he grows up
Undercard starts in 4 minutes. Main event will be around 10:30 - 11:00. Which is 2 hours out.Quote:

Hopefully, this is the time Khan comes unstuck. It's not healthy to wake so early just to want someone to lose.
I need to rest, I will be back. :D
Isn't this Gavin guy thought of as a prospect?
I guess I missed the first fight
How did Saunders do? I expect it was an early KO
I switched over to watch Angel from Big bro vs some over matched welsh woman . she won on points over 4 rounds with Sree ringside cheering every punch.
Gavin's legs are split out so far, kind of odd looking stance.
Good job by Gavin......against who:confused: ;D He's a good fighter though; will like to see where he goes in the next couple of years.
Another FAIL on fight day from the server hosts. Die please; die. Fukking willy wankers:dunce:
Tyson Fury is just funny looking.
I can't see him ever winning titles (he looks like a KO waiting to happen) but its early, maybe I'm not giving him enough credit :-\
Degale looks pretty good actually. My stream keeps on switching back and forth.
Beautiful green shoes Healy is wearing :vd:
Anybody got a Khan stream ive just came in from work ?
A PM would be much appreciated.
Kotelnik is a step up definitely and Khan might lose but its pretty smart match making really, not a huge puncher and not a guy that likes to come forward and follow somebody around, from what I've seen of him.
about to fight and im still completely undecided on the result
it wont go 12 im sure of that...either guy will win between 8 and 12!!
Someone should headbutt Glen , Nicky and Nelson until they have no visibility and then we'll see how well they box. Cant stand watching that injustice of a fight and the bias they show everytime its replayed
Everyone say their prayers that Amir gets hurt tonight
I wish that interviewer had said something like, "Naseem, have you exercised once since the Barrera fight? Do you think you can out-eat Fernando Vargas?"
FINALLY!
I agree Ouma, Kotelnik coming forward doesn't suit him as well I think he should be the one to make Khan reach because I can just see him getting stuck not landing that single jabs on Khan's high guard and let Khan make all the noise catching Kotelnik out of position.
So I'll go Khan by decision, nothing would surprise me though. We'll see if that training with Roach has stuck or if he fights like he did up until the sparking. I'm excited for this.
