    You can't forget the Amir Khan fight, he sparked an undefeated, number one ranked contender (yes I know not ring ranked but organisation ranked) and he did him in 76 seconds.

    I can't recall any British fighter in recent times defending a world title with a win inside the first minute and a half of the fight.

    I think Lennox Lewis might have beaten a couple in the first round like that but outside of him I can't think of any British fighter who has demolished a fighter in one round in a world title fight that like that.
    Bilbo. Shut up mate. Remind us why he was a worthy Khan opponent? He was ranked in accordance to this fight to make the win look good.

    Grow up.
    He's been the mandatory for about a year now since he fought on the Calzaghe undercard. When Kotelnik beat Maidana he became the #1. Regardless of whether he deserved it or not, it had nothing to do with Khan or Warren.

    Come on why do you think he was picked?

    It was clear Khan would destroy this guy.

    I honestly think he'll fight Hatton now too, he's IMO an easy opponent for Khan and another name to look good against. Hatton in his pomp though would have steam rolled Khan. Yes Khan has the better technique butr his chin would collapse as soon as Hatton connected and Hatton would walk through Khan's shot's in his prime!!

    I don't know why the WBA ranked him, probably because he was popular in New York & a fight with him would of been good money in MSG. But, he was the #1 mandatory before Khan even fought Barrera. That should tell you that it has sweet fuck all to do with Khan. He had to fight him so that he doesn't have to fight a mandatory for another year.

    When he does that person will have to be either the Diaz/Malignaggi winner, Hatton or Kendall Holt. Plus he will most likely have to fight Maidana at some point over the next 6 months. Khan HAD to fight him or lose the belt. Fighting him now means we get to see him take on challenges next year. Surely what we want?
