King Khan ready to take on the world after stopping Salita

I hope Khan goes for Ricky Hatton next, I honestly think people do not understand how talented Khan is, at only 22 he was world champ. He is the quickest boxer alive today, even faster than Pacman and Mayweather.

He now has a world class trainer to guide him, Amir Khan needed just 76 seconds to defeat Dmitriy Salita in the first defence of his WBA light-welterweight title in Newcastle.

Salita was floored by a lightning-fast left-right combination after just 10 seconds and never recovered.

The New Yorker clambered to his feet, but his legs had gone and the referee had no choice but to step in as Khan continued his bombardment.

He launches punches every five seconds and is now developing his defence, American fans may still be saying, who is Amir Khan? Well he is The Pacmans chief sparring partner for the Mayweather fight on March 13th. Khan in my opinion is the 2nd best 140 pound fighter alive after Manny himself. He will prove them beyond doubt in 2010, he will go for the big names, Hatton and Marquez who now wants to fight in that division.

Who is next to feel the wrath of Khan? Timothy Bradley, the undefeated American is the next target for Roach and Khan, the guy does not stand a chance, Amir is ready to take American by storm and he will be the first stepping stone.
