Amir Khan was an Excellent Amateur Fighter!

He would have been better off using his usualy amateurish style this time. He still hasn't learnt any defence except running around the ring.

Headgear doesn't reduce the impact of punches, bigger gloves do. Yep. I learned this as early as 12 years old, and laugh at whoever thinks headgear protects them from getting hurt. When I was 12, my History teacher, who use to box, told me headgear is only to protect from cuts and clashes of heads. He said punches feel exactly the same with or without headgear. I never forgot this little conversation. But I guess people who don't know this, and wear headgear thinking punches will hurt less, have a psychological advantage in which they really think punches hurt less, therefore they're more confident, and fight more effectively?

Khan's a glorified amateur

Khan is a great 3 round fighter but pro boxing is 12 rounds.

Headgear doesn't reduce the impact of punches, bigger gloves do.

He forgot to leave his amateur style behind him!
