Round 1:

They've actually renamed the show from the Big Fight Live to "Amir Khan: The Big Fight Live" which shows how much ITV are banking on the boy wonder from Bolton to be their boxing flag bearer. They've given him the big build-up, part of me wants to see Willie Limond do a number on him. Anyhow, less of my jibber-jabbering, lets see some pain.

Khan opening up with a few jabs, and as Limond comes in a left hook catches Limond. Khan with the body shot. Khan jabs, but a left hook from Limond lands. This is a right tear up as Khan comes forward with body shots, and Limond with a short right up top. Limond jabs, but a right from Khan gets through. Short shots from Khan, and they clinch. Limond jabs. Khan with quick jabs. Right hook in as well, Limond returns a jab. Khan more cautious tonight. But when he comes forward they do look to trade. Body shot and a left hook from Limond, but Khan returns a hook of his own.

Good opening round, Khan edging it with his work and fast hands.
10-9
