What does Khan’s win over Salita prove?

khan4345By William Mackay: Last Saturday night, World Boxing Association light welterweight champion Amir Khan took out Dmitriy Salita in a 1st round knockout at the Metro Arena, in Newcastle. The win appears to have created a minor Khan craze and made boxing fans from all regions view Khan as being the new world wild star in the sport. The win was certainly very spectacular because Khan was able to knock Salita down in the opening seconds with a left-right combination.

Khan-Campbell Is One Of Many Possibilities For Khan’s Future

khan453432By Peter Wells: After Amir Khan’s fantastic 1st round stoppage of Dmitriy Salita has now opened the doors to a new world of fights. I expected Amir to stop Salita after 7 rounds, not 1, and that was a spectacular display of power and speed, absolutely breath taking. I can say that Khan’s move up to Light Welterweight is the best move of his career, and now there are so many fighters he can chose from, the world is his oyster. But with so many challenges, he is sure to slip up somewhere, that’s why it’s not a good idea to put him in with the elite fighters of the 140lb division just yet.

Khan beats another soft opponent – when will he fight someone good?

khan33By Liam Santiago: Let me get one thing very straight. Dmitriy Salita is one of the weakest light welterweight fighter’s I have ever seen in my entire life. That includes all journeymen, not just champions and challengers. I was in hysterics listening to the sky pundits Glen McCory and Jonny Nelson hyping Salita like he was the next Marciano. Now we will have to listen to World Boxing Association light welterweight champion Amir Khan’s rants about becoming the best pound for pound fighter in the world and so on.

Observations on Khan-Salita and Prescott-Mitchell

khan3432By Scott Gilfoid: First let me start off by saying that the decision given to Kevin Mitchell (30-0, 22 KO’s) was one of the most undeserving that I’ve ever seen since I started following boxing many years ago. No way did I see Mitchell winning this fight, not with the running he did against the hard hitting Breidis Prescott (21-2, 18 KO’s). Man, I haven’t seen running like that since I watched David Haye fight Nikolay Valuev. Mitchell was literally running from Prescott for 12 rounds, especially from rounds nine through twelve.

Khan and Mitchell stun the world

khan34245By Richie Doyle: As a young gambling boxing fan I find myself gob smacked at what I witnessed Saturday night in Newcastle my bets consisted of two sizable bets one on Breidis Prescott to KO the smaller Kevin Mitchell and the other was on Dmitry Salita to beat an overrated Amir Khan and by god how wrong I was as I have to say I witnessed a night for British boxing to be proud of and never forget.

King Khan ready to take on the world after stopping Salita

salita43343By Amar Jahangir: The words of Freddy ‘The Master’ Roach just minutes ago after Khan produced an amazing display of speed, power and intelligence. 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.

Khan destroys Salita, Mitchell defeats Prescott – Boxing Results

salita546452By Dennis Broadhurst: Amir Khan has destroyed Dmitriy Salita in one round tonight! Khan came out strong and floored Salita with a huge right hand, Salita got up but didn’t recovered and was knocked down twice again in the round before the fight being stopped. I know I predicted Khan to win this one but not so quickly, he put on a masterful display and hopefully has silenced all of the critics for the meantime.

Khan vs Salita prediction: Amir will win

By Dennis Broadhurst: Firstly I would like to say to the readers that I do not hate Amir Khan, I think he is a great prospect in boxing and if he starts fighting positively again like he did last year then I see him becoming a big attraction in boxing. After reading some articles in papers of Khan being “upset” about racial slurs and insults that he has read on various boxing sites so I would just like to say that I do not want any comments on Khan’s race about any of my articles, Khan is a BRITISH fighter, he won a silver medal in 2004 for us so treat him with some respect people!
