Khan-Kotelnik.. Who wins/Who do you want to win?

[Fenster]

Khan will win by stoppage, Freddie Roach will have devised a plan to out-smart, out-hustle, out-box Kotelnik.Khans speed will be key in this fight as Kotelnik is well schooled but he cant really bang that hard ( dont know if that makes a diff,as it is Khan hes fighting )but is a bit of a methodical plodder.

I think it's unlikely Khan will stop him, it will be very impressive if he does. I'm pretty sure Kotelnik has never been over, has faced some dangerous hitters and doesn't take too many chances.

I supose there is the possibility Khan could get a dodgy stoppage.. traps him on the ropes, lets flurry go, ref overreacts. Please no.

I want Kotelnik to win, I cant stand Khan.

Kotelnik is a genuine strong light welter whereas this is Khans first fight at the weight and also probably his best opponent.

kotelnik did well against Witter who is quick and awkward and hits hard, Khan is quick but acording to his opponents the punches arent hard they just couldnt get out of the way of them, usually his opponents are from lighter weights as well, so that extra strength Khan has does tell on them whereas this bloke will walk through Khans daft combinatrions, that alone will make Khan think because Kotelnik is strong and has a very good defence and does everything workman like but he doesnt really have a punch.

I reckon Kotelnik will win before the final bell.

Khan will not be a superstar, he hasnt got the chin for it and his style just isnt very pleasing on the eye, its very amaturish, firing out lots of straight quick shots for points, hes been lucky enough to be of an ethnic background thats desperate for mainstream sports stars to follow, thats his fan base but they are blind to the fact hes already been shown up whithin a round by a nobody once and seems to be generally a wanker, im refering to him driving on the other side of the road to overtake cars that were waiting at a red light in Bolton city centre, only to smash in to someone crossing the road Little prick.
