They were in the England amateur team together. Would have sparred all the time, although Khan was considered much further forward than Gavin at the time.

does he have the fastest hand's you've faced???

i would of expected khan to come at you firing with you using timing & countering his attack's.

yeah ive watched your fight with tischenko a few times at the worlds and he seems a good pressure fighter but not a great boxer per se

wicked a Q & A with gavin :!:

no doubt since degale fought smith, you must be chomping at the bit to get your big night :!:

also franky what do you feel you have learnt about pro boxing so far & what adaptions do lads from the ams need to do in order to adjust, as they all look up to you as a massive role model.
