Amir Khan vs Andreas Kotelnik fight thread

[CFH]

Gonna be a great night of boxing

Complete pick`em fight if you ask me with khans speed taking on kotelniks durability.

Im gonna stick to my original hunch and go with a late kotelnik stoppage though could quite easily see khan being too quick and getting on top of andreas for a late win.

no way this goes 12

Im gonna go with Kotelnik stopping him in the 8th, Kotelnik is not the biggest puncher but he still has some under rated power, Amir will end up brawling at some stage and Kotelnik looks very confident. Khan is 4/11 at the moment which I think is way over priced and like you say Hammer its more 50/50 so Kotelnik is great value.

bookies will take an absoloute hiding tonight if kotelnik wins and theyve no reason to.

Anyone with any knowledge of the fight game will tell you 2/1 against the champion of the stature of kotelnik against a relative unknown entity is a steal for those backing kotelnik.

It was the same thing when hopkins fought pavlik as a 5/2 underdog despite the fact only a small majority were backing kelly to win

That's not true at all. The majority of people were picking Pavlik to beat Hopkins.

As for Khan fight, I want Khan to win but Kotelnik is a very underrated fighter. I think it'll be a close fight that goes to the cards. I wouldn't be surprised to see Khan win an undeserved decision; given the location you have to assume a close fight would go Khan's way.
