This week's column touches on Amir Khan & Martin Murray fights. Also Nathan Cleverly bill & Tyson Fury

Bolton's former world light-welter champion Amir Khan resumes his career on UK soil this evening knowing there's no margin for error. I expect the 2004 Olympic silver medallist to win by stoppage in his trumpeted homecoming against Mexico's Julio Diaz at Sheffield's Motorpoint Arena. His 33 year old California based opponent has been stopped five times previously. However, any slip ups will see 'King Khan's' earning capacity dip drastically and his future opportunities seriously diminish and leave him in the boxing wilderness.

Others might throw up John H. Stracey's upset of Jose Napoles in Mexico City in the mid 70s or Lloyd Honeyghan steamrolling Donald Curry in Atlantic City a decade later. However, Napoles, then 35, was clearly on the slide while 'Honey' beat the weight-drained Texan before just a handful of people in a casino.

Way to talk them down. :lol:

Lightweight Liam Walsh was another to shine, ultimately proving too fresh and frisky for Scotland's returning former world champion Scott Harrison in a fantastic 10 rounder.
