Amir Khan: "I Can Beat Manny Pacquiao and David Diaz"

[majestiC]

I think Khan would try and feed off Katsidis' pressure by moving and outboxing him like Casamayor did. But what happens if Katsidis clips him on the chin? We don't know because Warren won't risk his cash cow against a legitimate lightweight that has a KO % above 50.

That's the thing thats holding back Khan is his chin, he is still young though and maybe making the lightweight division isn't helping, hes huge for a lightweight I don't understand how some is 5ft10 and is under 10 stone lol!

Agree, I've never seen Khan fight on the ropes Mexican style, Kat will exploit that. Kat didn't look bad agaist Casamayor and wobbled him a few times, just think what he'd do to Khan if he caught him.

Hahaha! I'd blame Warren for that. However, I think Warren believes deep down Amir isn't as good as he's hyped up to be. Warren knows the truth.

nah... warren is just overly cautious with his fighters. he does a good job making them money though so you can't fault the guy.

wasn't warren naseem's and joe's promoter too? i could be wrong too lazy to look it up.

naseem and joe could've gone to america a lot sooner but they make so much money in britain that warren is wary of them getting a L. people do love rooting for undefeated fighters.

[Pugilistic™]

its too early just now for Khan. give him a year or two.

[majestiC]

Lets be honest here, Khan is richer than anyone else in the division bar Pacman, its crazy to think that when hes only had 17 fights at European level. That is one thing Warren is good at is getting his fighters paid, but is that good for boxing, I don't think it is.

Khan has pretty good power, he once knocked out Joe Calzaghe

Although his chin let him down again in the end...

Yer good point, more reason to fight better opposition in the lightweight divsion now so he can win belts and move up before he can no longer make 135lbs.

i admire his confidence, it's always good to see boxer's actually wanting to fight the best..we'll see after the gomez fight because if he doesnt finish off gomez convincingly then all this diaz pacquaio talk will look like he's punching above his weight so to speak..i would say if he is victorious on saturday then he should go for the small circle of top level fighters who are all fighting each other right now (katsidis, casaymayor, j.diaz, campbell ETC) and add his name to the mix to really test himself, because so far he hasn't been in a match where he could possibly lose
