    Amir Khan Likely The Most Influential Boxer of 21st Century, Like Ali Was 20th C.?

    Muhammad Ali is widely considered the most influential and inspirational boxer of the 20th century for a number of reasons, both inside and outside the ring. Although we're not even a quarter of the way through the current century as yet, is it an inescapable probability that Amir Khan will be recognized as the most influential and inspirational boxer of the 21st century?

    Following his decision to step up two weight divisions to fight Canelo we saw immediate reactions across the boxing world - Brook immediately postured as if he wanted to fight GGG, Ward asked to fight Kovalev, Wilder wanted the Povetkin fight, Haye wanted to fight Browne, even Billy Jo Saunders refrained from his previous reluctance and claimed he'd like to fight GGG in the summer.. The chain reaction of Khan facing Canelo was so widespread across the boxing stratosphere that no one could escape the aftershock. Perhaps the effects of Khan's decision will continue to impact the boxing world for years, if not decades to come, just like iconic figures such as Ali and Tyson still influence boxers today?

    So the question now remains, at this point in history is it fair to say that Khan is the prime candidate for being the most inspirational and influential boxer of the 21st Century, with no exception? Of course maybe only a few of us will survive to see the next century so lets all agree now while we still can?

    You're either the most obvious troll ever or the most ******ed poster ever.

    Either scenario is sad.

      You honestly are one of the most pathetic individuals on the planet. Khan is literally irrelevant in boxing history.

      Are the mods seriously okay with this guy posting this ***** on a daily basis? It's not remotely amusing.

          Step your trolling game up. You telegraph your shots and lack the ability to set traps.

          You need to learn to bait your opponent into posting what you want him to post and then once you set him up, you counter him with an effective reply.

          That's the art of trolling my friend.

                    I guess Khan has influenced the fight game, he has shown that you can duck the top fighters in a division (when the division is loaded) and fight pillow fisted and smaller fighters waiting for a big payday.
                    Instead of earning a payday in the ring, he let his big mouth do the talking, the good thing about the Canelo fight, after it we won't have to listen to people thinking Khan is some G for taking a fight for a payday.
                    He is just a high priced **********, Canelo will beat it up and land a money shot right on Khan's face.
