I'm a fan of Khan I admit, his only problem is his over confidence, he clearly went into the ring thinking he could walk over Prescott and didn't put any thought into his defense.

But when you strip him down to his bare essentials, he has all the tools to do well in the sport. He hits relatively hard, he has very good speed and he has the motivation to do well. I think he will win this fight easily, although i'm not going to bet on it as you never know. But to sum up my thoughts I think people need to cut Khan a break and stop making his punch resistance out to be so bad. So what if Limond floored him? He got back up and broke his goddamn jaw...
the thing is Limond can hardly break the shell of an egg and he had him in trouble. If he'd have been anything of a puncher that fight would have been over. Watching it again Limond went for broke and gassed. Credit should be given to Khans recovery but that is what youth and fitness can give you.

Define do well? British, Yes, European? World? Mix it with the top guys? Marquez? Guzman?

It's worse for him if he goes up a division as Roach seems to think as that is deeper than where he is now...Roach has been spouting all kinds of crap lately.
