What a fight - over in the first with Bailey having been down twice and then unable to defend himself.  Why did the ref ignore the towel - I don't believe that he didn't see it.  Showed how hard Khan can punch but I'm not sure that he will get away with such an onslaught when he starts to meet quality opposition.


This  result is certain to increase demand for tickets for his next fight if that is possible; just as well the deal was done with ITV.

I dont rate him Bruno, i used to go and see a lot of live boxing. Hes too lightweight and a Frank Warren stitch up.


 


Gimme Hatton to watch any day.

If we are talking about established UK fighters then Hatton and Calzaghe are class acts.  Saying that I don’t think Hatton would have beaten Kostya Tszyu in his heyday; age and lack of fights for two years gave Hatton the edge.


I believe that in time Khan will cut the mustard.  He needs to fight a few journeymen before his true potential is known.  He certainly won’t be able to steamroller them like he did Bailey.  One of us will be proven wrong but which?

The cuban laid down vs Khan. I hope he (AK) won't fight bums for 4 years like Harrison has.

Don't think he will take the Harrison route cos he's a lad on a mission.  He needs to fight at least a couple of 'nearly made it' fighters who are likely to try and rough him up as part of his development and to see how big his balls are.
