amir kahn and the gullible british public

[rooq]

its a bit early to judge khan yet

of course he has been fighting hand picked opponents,he is just starting out.
hes only 20

exactly...but with the difference from other fighters starting out being the publicity and every minute of his pro career screened live to millions. kind of raises expectations seeing as a lot of his armchair fans know very little about how boxing works.

[!!! Beowulf !!!]

dur beowulf might not be very bright but i bet he cun lift heavy fings durrrrrr

What are you blabbering about? You're the one that can't even ****ing spell the bloke's name.

Its a ****ing movie reference, ******.

[hemichromis]

he is way to green for someone who holds the belt he leaves himself wide open why haven;t his trainers kicked this habit?

[Easy-E]

His chin may prove to be a problem down the road but hes got good skills, and hes damn exciting.

[kerrminator]

He is clearly trying to become the next Naz imo(outside the ring anyway) but he lacks all the crudentials to be half as successful inside the ring.

He is running around actind like a super celeb (Naz did this when he was starting out)

He is claiming he will become the youngest champion (Naz did this)

He is still a novice yet claiming he is ready for a world title (Naz did this)

He is always quoted dedicating his fights to all the ******s in the UK (Naz did this, I also think that seems a bit disrespectful to the other 90% of boxing fans who follow him)

However.......Naz backed most of his claims up in the ring (until he started to get sloppy, sacking trainers etc) Khan will be lucky to reach Euro level and if the level of his opponents stays as bad as they are for too long then he might not even make it to a british title. OK he has only had 10 fights and is still very young but if there's one thing I've learned over the years, its never expect a Frank Warren fighter to fight a decent opponent unles its as a very last resort.

anyone see a naz here?

Couldn't have put it better myself. I've been saying this for months...

It nothing wrong with that.

Pac dedicated his win to all PI, all mexician fighter dedicate to mexician even the guys with americian passport which sometimes is a bit offesive because you loyal does not lie in one direction so it the same in there, Hatton, and many non-americain fighter and even some dedicate to there race, religion and nationalitiy.

Iv'e never seen/read about Khan dedicating his fight to all ******s!!

[kerrminator]

I have seen him do it for sure but there was even once he spoke into the mic and said thankyou to all his ****** fans and bugger all to his other fans.

Naz was similar, in fact Naz got a little carried away with all the religion.

Before he fought Barrera he wanted to say a ****** prayer into the mic and I thought at the time, fair enough, but then I seen the documentary where he was saying to Michael Buffer that being able to say this prayer meant more to him than the fight itself.....kinda downgraded the sport.

Amir is perfectly withion his rights to dedicate his fights to, and thank all his ****** fans but he could at least thank the rest of his fans too....he is afterall british, and britain is not a ****** based nation.
