bull barely threw a shot did he.
landed 1 left and that was it.
he needs to be stepped up in class now khan.
we've seen enuff of the knockover jobs.
let's see a fight with willie limond for the commonwealth title.

Khan thinks he is the best lightweight in Britain and then SOON the World!

a good lefty would pick khan to pieces on that evidence.
all that flurrying will get him nowhere at top level.
tough to judge at this stage though.
would he settle down more when he steps up in class.
he flaming better.

Bull was lame, but still slipped Khan...
I doubt that performance will enchance Khan's career stateside.

Khan is no way going to be a World Champion, imo.
He is a flighty little sod - but he is all hype.
Lightweight will be beyond him in 12 months, Lt Welter? - he gets stopped
Khan has not even been hit as a pro, has he????

Khans a grAde "A" twat. Best lightweight in britain?well there is one way to prove it, stop the talk and get it on with Thaxton ya wee fanny. Lets see how he likes it when the other guy can fight back, he'll get KTFO. Man, I hate this guy, and the bullshit that surround him

i think he's a good looking fighter,very tall like a corrales,but should go to 140,i def. think he could beat a torres,just not a witter or harris yet but in a yr. or two he'll be the real deal.

Beat Torres?.
Whatever you are smoking, pass some to Fwank Warren.

torres isin't a boxer with great skill set,but can pop & throws alot, but he can be countered,he did get dropped by arnoutis.although they both do have fast hands.

It's reached the point where I want to fight Khan, because I know I could last a few half-decent rounds! If we ignore the fact I'm a touch heavier at 155.
Honestly, growing up I admired everyone who stepped in against the likes of Benn and Jackson. Although they were middleweights to be fair. Point is, you could probably go into an average pub and offer £500 to a thin bloke to fight Khan, and you'd have people accepting. How much is £500 to try your luck with a young Hearns?

Torres ALMOST beat Cotto.
Arnoutis would destroy Khan. Khan is fast but that is about it.

Khan could've put Bull away inside 90 seconds tonight, if he had a left hook. He doesn't. You can see it in how he tries to manoeuvre everyone onto the straight right.
He has two world-class attributes: speed and fitness.

Thaxton would muller him, and if he's the best in Britain then wtf is he doing aiming for Limond next :)
They can't keep saying one thing then doing the other.

I thought Bull took a dive to be honest. He didn't throw a meaningful punch all night. He waited for a flurry (which slow motion showed to be barely landing, nothing flush anyway), saw it as his chance to get out of there and folded over and quit. Nine out of ten average 140lb guys off the street could have taken that punishment and not gone down.
He turned up to get his money and didn't try to win the fight. He should be ashamed.

Speed can hide a lot of flaws - just look at Roy Jones Jnr.
I like Khan though; not sure where all this resentment comes from TBH and I want to see him develop.
Having said that Limond looks a little soft for his next assignment, but then again we all know how Franky loves to do it by now..

It was a shot to the left kidney I think, which does hurt, but it was so obvious Bull wouldn't consider continuing under any form of adversity.
Poor show to be honest. I don't blame Bull himself too much; it was a nice payday. Why can't people keep the lid on hype these days though? Herol Graham was leagues ahead of Khan, yet still didn't quite make it at world level.

I agree that Bull mostly wanted to spoil and take the cash.
I think Limond would be a great step up for Khan.

Willie is a decent counter puncher but is too small and wont be able to counter effectively due to Khan's speed.
It wont be anything like competitive I am afraid.
Bull was already retired - tonight just proved that.
Powell needs to pull his finger out of his arse and start making some proper fights, not duping the paying public like the are at the moment.

Murray has said he'll fight Khan, so let's see it. He's the same size, he's the same age, but more importantly, he's a young lad with a future ahead of him who'd try to win. In any sensible world, this would be made to judge who was going somewhere. Instead we'll never see it because of 'promotional difficulties', or because it doesn't 'make financial sense'
For what it's worth, I think Khan would win. But wouldn't it be nice to see two young prospects actually let us know who's better?

Khan needs a decent counter puncher and small or not he's a natural Lightweight now.
I agree that Powell and Warren need to choose the right opponents but then they go too far with the likes of Gunn.

yeah good spot.
maybe we'll see a bit more of what he has in fights where he isn't just expected to bowl em over.
we'll see.

imagine what someone like guzman would do.
all the flurrying from khan would be countered bigtime.
he'll soon be wbo lightweight champ.

Exactly the type of fighter SN steer clear of when matchmaking.

Yep. It's so fornicating depressing. The F.A. get some (deserved) stick, but at least when they say Man U. have to play Chelsea, you know it'll happen. The BBBofC should be ordering the likes of Khan and Murray to fight each other, with the winner moving towards a shot at the Lonsdale belt.
I'm preaching to the converted here, but it gets on my tits so much.
