  • Amir Khan Not Considering Retirement; Responds to Froch

    Taken from BBC Sport:

    Amir Khan has dismissed suggestions that he should retire after losing his WBA light-welterweight title with a fourth-round defeat by Danny Garcia.
    Khan also lost to Lamont Peterson in December and IBF super-middleweight world champion Carl Froch said his boxing career was now "a write-off".

    But 25-year-old Bolton fighter told BBC Sport: "I'm not talking about retiring, I'm still young, I've got a lot in me.

    "I'm still hungry and I'll come back a lot better and a lot stronger."

    It was the third setback of Khan's career following a first-round knockout against Breidis Prescott in 2008 and the Peterson result.

    Froch claimed that if he was in the same position as his compatriot, he would hang up his gloves .

    But Khan responded: "Carl's always got his little things to say and I'll leave it to that really. If he wants to retire he can retire.

    "I'm in a tougher division, I'm fighting better opposition and I'm a bigger name than him. That's what burns him really.

    "People are going to say things after this fight but people said things after the Prescott fight and you see how I came back from there."

          only newbs think a couple kos and you retire.

          boxers retire when they're past it or can't make any more money.

          khan has a bad chin, sometimes he'll get koed. that's boxing.

                yeah ward is great.

                but you think there's more talent at 168 than 140?

                    he's had china his whole life. still put together a nice run.

                    he can put together another one.

                    hell makes his fights more interesting. you never know when his opponent can put him to sleep at any time.
