    I agree with Blake, erm, it's not a good sign that Khan got off the floor, as he shouldn't have been there in the first place! Limond isn't a noted puncher (and boxes part-time, where as Khan trains full time)! You lot are probably the SAME clowns that tipped Audley Harrison to be undisputed world champion (yea, go on deny it now)! And someone used Thomas Hearns and Khan's name in the same sentence, Khan could only be compared to Thomas Hearns NOW, i.e. old and punchy! The Thomas Hearns of the 80's hahaha don't be so stupid, AND Hearns could take quite a few punches, it was the accumulation that wore him down, NOT single shots!

    I have always said that Khan is not and never will be world class! His next opponant is Doris from the bingo (although she may hit a bit to hard for him she has been practising with her bingo pens I hear)! I have said from day one that Khan is massively overrated and will do a Joe *duck duck* Calzaghe and Nasheem *christ where did that other car come from* Hamed and take safe fights, making millions and being adored for doing nothing exceptional! Is he really in the same league as Hatton? (I know they are differnet weight classes but im comparising like for like, before anyone comments)!

    I Thought it was a terrific fight, and Limond came prepared. Khan showed Bottle and that he wanted it. His problem is when thinking of what to do he switches off. Ive always found thats a sign of to much pad work pads dont hit back the defensive mechanism wont work as it should. His posture gives it away. But a good prospect he is, Limond isnt a mug, and Khan got hit with a good shot and came through.

    Scrap you think the team he has is the one to take him as far as he can go?

    Dont know the team as such, But make no mistake its a big job pscyhologicly and they dont seem phased by it. I remember what its like when everybodys trying to bring you down, theyve got to beleive as a unit what they are doing is right. At the moment they should be Happy so far a lot was leard Saturday use it.

    Khan v Limond was great TV, can only be good for future boxing on TV, when AMIR was decked he looked surprised, and this seemed to spur him on, he became more aggressive, on the front foot, intent on swarming all-over limond, untill he landed those heavy shots,and then the knock down, forceing the stopage in the interval, Khan would have learned a lot from this fight, regarding his defence, that needs a lot of work to tighten it up against a better class apposition

    I think Khan just took a little while to Warm up in this fight....think after all people have been saying about him ..about his opposition and stuff khan wanted to knock limond out asap....obviusly he didint fight properly and after the knock down he looked in a different league to limond ...I dont think anyone can deny this.....If khan had started the fight like he looked after the knockdown....The fight would not have gone 4 rounds...in my opinion

    Well said mate, CC. It was a very entertaining fight, and if there is one thing that Khan does bring, at whatever level opposition he's fought so far, is a bit of glamour and star quality. Hopefully the team behind him, mentioned by Scrap, can fulfill the task ahead of them in bringing Khan's head to the right place. Which is hidden behind his gloves.
