"Khan should stay amateur. He does not have a good chin and he does not punch hard," said Kindelan.

"He's not as good as British people think. He doesn't have the style to be a top professional."

Kindelan, 33, also claimed he hurt Khan in the Olympic final while emerging unscathed himself.

Mickey Vann as referee perhaps? ho ho

Anyone know the judges - not all from Bolton are they?

Kinderlin may not be wrong, he knows better than anyone although he may be trying to wind Kahn up a bit. I think Kahn has potencial but he may need to learn power (although didn't he get a TKO at one point) which can be done and his defence needs sorting.

Khan is going to lose again. These 'homecoming' fights always seem to turn out wrong for fighters. Look at Iran Barkley vs James Toney, or more recently Cory Spinks vs Zab Judah, too much pressure on the home fighter. Not that this is the only reason Khan will lose, Kindelan is just too good.

Kindelan will win again, possibly more convincingly than in the Olympics.

Excuse the pun, but this is the 'old pro's trick' of kidology, surely?

Kindelan will win again I think, it's not as if Khan has been very active and gaining experience since their last fight.

Full credit to Khan for taking the fight though.

Let's hope it does not backfire on Khan and he gets stopped on live TV in front of a few million viewers.

That will not help his marketability.

I reckon Kindelan is right.

He wont be hitting Khan with a handbag.

Kindelan will beat Khan, because he´s a better fighter.

Uh oh! lets not rule out a 'close home town decision'.... would Frankie really risk his newest rough diamond if he didn't like the way the wind blew?.... 8)

Exactly, reeks of suspicion if you ask me. Surely it will only look bad if Amir gets his arse handed to him in his swan-song fight before turning pro?

If Amir wins and Kindelan drives off in a new Ferrari, then I think we'll know what's happened.

The above two reasons are why I haven't waded into this fight before now. The Cuban's odds are drifting (4/7 from 4/11) suggesting there has been significant money for Khan. Seriously, does anyone know who the ejudges are here? Kindelan beats Khan every day of the week in my book, but sometimes it's not always about the boxers.... if you know what I mean.
