    i think a lost of poeple in the UK want him to fail because he got to cocky, after a few fighs saying he could go 4 round and beat mayweather...
    Yeah that is just cockyness nfor sure, PBF managed to take fighters like Corrales, DLH, Hatton, Castillo and do what he wanted most of the time.....Kahn has not even really earned the right to call anyone out thus far...In a couple of years if he keeps on this track but to call out guys like PBF certainly stupid braggart talk....
    Khan has never called out Floyd Mayweather, in fact the only fighter he has ever called out is Kotelnik.
    Saying you can beat a fighter and calling them out is just about the same thing.....Assuming they fight somewhere near your weight class and the fight is plausable...

    I personally never heard him make the comment about Floyd I was just more or less commenting on the fact if he did as was said....

    Then why would you want to see him fight Holt? He can't punch for shit. He caught Bradley with a massive punch, and while he dropped him, Bradley was never seriously hurt. The only reason he stopped Torres was because of a head-butt.
    Don't be fooled by Holt's KO ratio.

    That guy can crack when he sits down on his shots. His counter punching style is why he doesn't have many KOs.

    Bradley getting up was more to do with Bradleys recovering powers and conditioning, not Holt's "lack" of power.

    Holt hits harder then you think....Though he is not a massive puncher by any means he does have more of the 1 punch shot if he lands flush and sits down on a shot....More suited to KO a guy like Kahn then a massive puncher that Kahn will certainly avoid shots....

    Speaking of Torres I thought about picking him off the list but Kahn would be avoiding the power all night long going into the fight so less of a chance he would get caught
    I've seen four Holt fights and while he's a very crisp, sharp puncher I've never considered him as having serious power. However, I do agree that he would be a good test for Khan and he'd definitely land some shots.

    He really didn't call out Mayweather. I believe he made a joke, a long time ago, about being able to beat Mayweather in a four round fight when he was asked about his progression as a fighter.

    That sounds a little more like it makes sense....Like I said I never heard him call Floyd out, I think Preme said in his post he heart it

    Khans next defence has to be against a name who isn't to old who can punch and has good skills we need a fight where we can really gauge how good he is and if he stays up right when hit hard.

    I am at times critical of Khan, but I too have realized that he is in the infancy of his career and to make the most of it, he probably shouldn't rush into tough fights and risk losing some of his appeal. For example, Bradley would be too much for him at this point. Although I would love to see him up against a puncher, he should probably steer clear until he develops more.

    Holt will fight Campbell next. The purse bid is tomorrow.

    No he said something along the lines of he'd fancy his chances against anyone in a 4 round fight including Mayweather...because basically he was fighting 4 rounders at the time
