Casa is an interesting little test, yes hes past it, smaller and hence unlikely to have the firepower or engine to stop Khan. But hes slick and got all the tricks, may make Khan look foolish at times and make him work hard for his win. Not too bad on 2 months notice but yet another underpowered contender, although I suppose he sparked Katisdis

yeh according to the sun they offered casamayor £400,000 for the fight, khan has literally nobody to fight as katsidis apparently doesn't want the fight now. casamayor seems the only name out there

It won't look good for Khan fighting a 39 year old lightweight. Why is this 31st of July date set in stone? If the date was pushed back a bit I'm sure Paul McCloskey would take a fight with Khan, it would be massive in the UK and Ireland.

Casas last fight: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uTRvH4Oo ... re=related - is he purposely pulling his shots to get the rounds in or has he really slowed that much.

I really hope Casa 'old mans' Khan and punnishes his sloppy amateur mistakes

Ramadan is after that date, he can't really fight or train effectively during Ramadan. Anyway Khan's trying to build a name for himself stateside on HBO so he can get a Mayweather fight in the next couple of years, so they need HBO recognisable names for that

Ah I see. Thanks

are there no decent welter names that would move down. whats zab up to? why not offer demitrius hopkins some money? and Ajose Olusegun deserves a shot at someone why not khan to beat a 28-0 fighter, im sure they could sell that fight

Casamayor is as good as any of those names.If it would have been Katsidis,people would have been pointing to the fact Casamayor knocked him out.

No Casa isn't nearly as good as Judah at 140, who I'd pick to spark Khan

Sorry Mickey, P4P El Cepillo's better, but at least Zab's in the right weight division.

Hopefully it will be Maidana.

Judah be a good opponent. Be interesting to see what tv channel this ends up on.
