    I would like to see him fight a decent level European, challenge for the European (Romanov at the mo), a couple of fringe contenders (Katsidis, or someone like that then go for the title after that.
    If he actually said that, he's full of garbage. If his bodyfat % was anywhere below 2 we'd be able to see the defenition in his organs. As far as I know the body cannot survive with much less that 3%, and it wouldn't benefit any athletic pursuit to even think about having lower.

    I don't see this as being as much of a blowout as some of you. Khan is clearly more skilled than Katsidis, who gave Casamayor a run for his money. I'm not saying Khan would win, but I think he would make it a good fight.

    Thats dangerously low no boxer would be able to function that low in body fat they would look ill and wouldn't last 2 seconds in the ring, Khan was talking nonsense thats anorexic.

    Agreed

    I've heard a few fighters saying going anywhere below 6% made it almost impossible to train without being ill.

    With 1.5% bodyfat it would be almost impossible for your body to absorb vital vitamins and minerals.
