Khan looked great, only time will tell. Shot fighter or not that was a great performance

The Khan haters will say that Earl is a shot fighter who is about as far from world class as possible. Seriously though i wont be reading too much into this, yes its only khans 15th fight but he's never been in the ring with a big puncher and he's already been down twice!!
He's not learning anything by knocking out a bum in 1 round. People compare him to Naz but he's not as ellusive as Naz and seems to get hit too easily. If i was him id get as many Mayweather videos as i could and learn from the master!!

I disagree with calling Earl a bum. Although he was fortunate to get the shot against Katsidis, and got it partially on the fact that he could fill an arena rather than impeccable boxing credentials. However, he's a two time British title holder, commonwealth titlist and WBU titlist, which is more a resume of a possible Euro contender rather than a "bum".

You'd love to be a fly on the wall at SN whilst they're trying to manufacture Khan a world title in time

I'd still pick the Graham Earl that showed up last night to beat the Joel Casamayor that showed up last month though

Earl isn't world class, Casamayor is. Casamayor had a bad night last time out, Earl has had two bad nights out in his last two fights. He's a lovely bloke but he's done for now. Casamayor still has something left, not much, but more than Earl.

As for Khan, couple good fights and everyone is comparing him to Ray Robinson!!!! Hell, I reckon he'll be done for before he makes any big waves.
