When boxing at distance Khan looked good, his speed counted, up close he struggled. Pacman - Marquez and Chisora -Helenius were both Robberies, this wasn't. Fenster I don't know if you are being sarcastic or serious but I am assuming you are speaking with tounge in cheek. A point can be made though, about the ridiculous situation in which a British fighter has to go to America to DEFEND his belts,in the challenger's hometown and we are expected to wait up till 4 a.m to watch it. It is probably Khan's own greed but really I wish more UK fighters would insist on defending belts they have often won away from home here in Great Britain.
