The Kahn fight will have been good for him cause it has now shown that he needs to do more as Limond is not a big puncher and he had Kahn rocked. If he had a finish Kahn would have been out of there.

 

He can say he was perfectly fine all he wants but his legs were jelly and he was all over the place. It has now shown to everyone out there that he's not as good as the hype and that one of the better and stronger boxers in the division is going to fancy a real go at him.

 

Just a shame Limond was too rocked after kahn came back as i thought he was going to maul him after the knock down. Ran out of steam, very surprised if it really was a broken jaw, but you never know.

 

Good fight though, much better than the big fatties later on.

 

Cheers

That was the bit where kahn (as you like to call him) showed everyone how much talent he really has.

 

He is only 20.....and the fight was a great learning experience for him. No Doubts with the right attention he will get better as time goes by.

Not disputing the guy has talent. I just think that he needs to be given a chance to develop and continue to have people around him like Frank Warren telling him to wait for title fights.

 

Khan himself thought he was ready for a world title fight after the last one as did a lot of people around him. Hopefully this fight has shown that he needs to continue to develop as this was the first even remote challenge he has had in the ring.

 

All i was saying that if that had been a better fighter with a bigger punch, which a lot do in the division, then Khan would have been finished off, and the last thing british boxing wants is another Audley Harrison situation.
