Khan still has a lot of time to go before Mayweather is free to [...]

By Martin Cronin: After reading many articles,from credible sporting websites, predicting the outcome of this fight really left me scratching my head.

By Scott Gilfoid: I don’t think I’ve ever seen such a beautiful low blow like the one WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan (26-1, 18 KO’s) finished off IBF light welterweight champion Zab Judah (41-7, 28 KO’s) with last night in Las Vegas.

By Dan W: Tonight, Amir Khan battered Zab Judah for 5 rounds eventually knocking him out with a body punch which could have been seen as a low blow. But regardless of this Judah was never competitive and the speed and power of Khan was evident when looking at Judah’s face at the end of [...]

By Sean McDaniel: Amir Khan and Zab Judah will both be roughly around the same size in tonight’s light welterweight unification fight at the Mandalay Bay Resort and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada.

By Scott Gilfoid: For some reason, WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan says he feels more love in the United States than he does from his own country Britain. I wonder why that is?
