    4" in height, 2" reach.

    Anyone want to fess up and claim Khan's new name?

    I wondered about the Prescott fight. I remember the pre-fight interview and it became evident to me that something was wrong. Even my dad looked at me and said 'something aint right there'... Kahn looked terrible.

    I believe he was fasting so that could explain why his punch resistance was even worse than it normally is - which is pretty poor by anyone's standards.

    There are so many variables that can deem whether a punch has knockout power so the fact that Prescott couldn't KO a guy who had previously been ko'd by supposed lesser punchers, doesn't mean that much to me.

    he chose to box whilst fasting? That's just stupid and if true he deserved to get ko'd.

    Yea he did the same thing the year before but wasn't in with a puncher.....might have been Earl.

    He was allowed to eat on the day of the fight but leading up to the fight he had to stick to his fasting schedule.

    What kind of nonce signs up a fight knowing they will be fasting? It isn't like it's a big secret date.

    so all the time leading up to fight he was a good muslim but not on the day of the fight? Sounds like all the good muslims I know who drink alcohol.

    this may sound dumb and be a stupid question but is there anything a fighter actually does to try and improve his chin ?!?

    Ok he can work on his defence - but what else ?

    no i think it was to do with Prescot having a all be it smoke and mirrors KO %.

    Khan had been fed non punchers for too long in his learning proccess IMO
