I was always against this. But I've come around to it more as people have talked about it more.

My opinion of Khan has elevated slightly after his win over Kotelnik. He fought a relatively decent fight, but Kotelnik didn't really do anything until the tenth round. He is slow and spends a lot of time covered up and still managed to get close and tag Khan easily when he decided to. He left it way to late to try and make a dent though.

I still think Hatton beats Khan and probably knocks him out. My only concerns are the issues of Hattons mental state and his sheer unwillingness to keep his gloves up anymore. Hatton has such quick feet so I can see him closing the gap on Khan quickly and he will land a lot more and significantly harder than what Kotelnik could. I can't see Khan standing up to that.

But if Hatton has slowed, become gunshy and isn't really into it anymore then it might go a bit wrong. Khan is a crappy puncher, but even Hatton cannot just use his head to block those absurd 6 punch combinations. Needs to get his guard up and his head moving. But he's been doing that less and less year by year.
