Amir Khan.. The Great Swindle??

[The Final Word]

Is he british? Thats all we need to know. Look how they put him in the ring with another exhibition amateur. What is with brits and tomato can fights.

Is your last remaining brain cell lonely? Rattling about up there all by itself. I feel sorry for it.

Yes, but that doesn't mean he's packing glass. I mean, he might be, but this doesn't prove it.

No.. Not directly.. because ONLY a Hard puncher would prove that..Which then brings me to my point.. He is being SOLD as the future.. So why worry if one of the stiffs can punch?? In fact I think By fight 12 you should have been in with 2 or 3 hitters By NOW.. esp if you plan on taking your man to the TOP..
Stylisticaly All 12 guys have been pretty much the same fighter..
So I am justified in asking if something UP...

Frank Warren doesn't want his investment to come to a sudden halt. He is totally protecting Khan right now. Which is all right, but after about 18 to 20 fights, Warren needs to put him in there with a puncher who can test his chin. I hope Khan's career isn't a replay of Hameds.

khan is going to be 50 and 0 by the time warren puts him in against anyone worth a damn.

another warren production.

Hamed is form Yemen
Do indian subcontinent boxers having weak chins?
tbh there aren't too many of them in boxing to know if that is the case!!

Hamed is from Yemen? No fooooool hes from Sheffield. His Dad is from Yemen and moved to Sheffield to work in the steel works.

Amir Khan is british by birth not by blood enough said

[LOLORSKATES]

Makes you wonder what's worse?

Being a sheltered boxer whom will go throughout their entire career without a true challenge

OR

An exposed boxer in which people get all upset that this person got exposed yet these are the same people who are saying this person needed to take the bigger fights..

Khan was knocked down 11 times in the amateurs.

I agree he needs to fight some very live opponents now and should be targetting the british title by the end of the year.

If Geoff's right about being knocked down that often in the amateurs you might well be on to something mind ...
