Personally, I think Frank will be telling Amir Khan not to answer any more questions about Thaxton for the next six months, in case he talks himself into a corner.

For me, Amir's guard and defence were what let him down, as he held a high guard and fought well early on, but as soon as he started to let his hands drop and started rolling those fists as he does, it was obvious to me that his chin was going to get tested, no matter how fast your hands are, if they're not up in a guard, you're going to struggle to block punches.

I think that three or four fights against opponents of the caliber of Willie Limond will teach him to keep those hands up, and coaches will be drumming it into him from now till eternity. In the same way Calzaghe's overcome his dodgy hands by adapting his punching, Khan will just have to work around that dodgy chin of his, and develop so that it becomes very difficult for him to get hit there. He's shown he's a decent counter puncher, so it's a viable option.

But if he fights Thaxton now, it could all go pear-shaped for my money.
