Seriously its getting annoying, "people keep forgetting hes 21 years old...", "hes only 21 yrs old he needs a chance to improve, did ricky hatton fight good competition at 21 years old?"
Firstly Amir Khan is on sky box office where people must pay to watch him fight, whether hes 21 or not is not the point, he should be satisfying the viewers not fighting bums who are just there for a pay cheque. Secondly Ricky Hatton and Joe Calzaghe at 21 yrs old weren't even on sky sports, never mind sky box office. (it took joe 20 fights to get reconized).
I admit he looked impressive fighting a guy who just came there to collect a cheque. Into he fights his demons against Bredes Prescott he hasn't got a leg to stand on, if he beats Bredes and then starts winning at least one world title. (vacant included) i'll start paying to watch him.... but guys stop using Amirs age as an excuse as I just proved that age shouldn't mean anything if you're on sky box office. To make matters worst, Mike Tyson was the most feared man in boxing at 20 and Naseem Hamed was the youngest brit to win a world title.
