Andreas Kotelnik is confident he can defy the odds and successfully defend his WBA Super Lightweight title against Amir Khan when the pair go head to head on June 27. Kotelnik heads into the fight the bookmakers’ underdog. But the hard hitting Ukrainian told Setanta Sports News he wasn’t impressed with Khan. He said: “I’ve watched DVDs of him in action and I’m not impressed. He might be the bookies favourite leading up to the fight but I am world champion.” Kotelnik slammed Khan for “always gabbling on” and dismissed any talk of the Khan ruling the light-welterweight division. “First off, I am the world champion; secondly I think I am the best of all the world champions. I will fight the best fighters in the division. But Khan isn’t one of them. I am confident I can beat him.”
