The guy only has 2 KO'S from 27 fights. Yet, he dropped Salita twice. In the first round! It's going to be even easier for Khan that I first realized.

Imma have a £5 on Khan for rounds 1, 2 and 3. 20/1 average odds for each of those rounds.
Okay, I knew he was protected but that[i/] I didn't know. Khan should have more than enough to dispatch this character before he even gets a glance of Amir's porcelain jaw. I wouldn't be surprised to see it end in the first.

Salita also got dropped in round 1 against Robert Frankel.

Robert Frankel has 4 KO'S in 37 fights!

So Salita has been dropped twice by a guy with 2 KO's in 27 fights. And he's been dropped by a guy with 4 KO'S in 37 fights.

This guy has a worst chin that Khan. Might make that a tenner per round now :TU:.

Hello and welcome to boxing.

I assume you're not familiar with allegedly events?
Cheeky git. I was listening to fights on the radio in the 1950s and watching them on TV in the 1960s. I was also attending fights during that time and I also boxed for my school in the 1950s. I am perfectly aware FW often puts on fights that are a foregone conclusion and I was asking for your opinions, not a friggin insult from you. Prescott was undefeated with a padded record (wins against people who had never even won a fight) and Khan should therefore have beaten him. Wrong gameplan, poor defence, weak chin, lack of respect for a puncher etc all lead to Khans downfall. Could it happen again, Salita isnt exactly a mug. He doesnt appear to have a big punch but neither did Limond. The question is there to be answered by those who know their boxing, not smart arses who think its clever to make stupid sarcastic comments.
LOL

Honestly mate, I was just being daft -- it wasn't meant to offend.

Definitely not worthy of a £15 price tag, World Title fight or not.
Yeah thats for sure, when Haye fought the big un, i bought it and so did most of my boxing and even many non boxing pals, i haven't met one person who is paying for this and i'm definately not, i'd like to see what the figures are like i'm predicting dismal, i might at a push if there was nothing on TV pay a fiver for it but £15 no way!

These new facts about Salita are quite alarming, he's even worse than I thought!

I'm fully expecting Khan to win via 1st rd kayo - and the obligatory media coverage - 'He's Back! Sensational Khan stuns undefeated mandatory challenger' etc

*spews*

Salita is slow as Frech Connection United Kingdom......doesn't punch particularly hard, doesn't have a particularly good chin, has fought no-one of note and has struggled against journeyman. Nuff said. Khan by ko/tko/dq @5/6. Sort it out.

I just can't see Salita winning.
