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.
Pac, Morales and Barrera would have less impressive legacies if they had never faced each other, even though all 3 won some and lost some in their fights together. Let's hope Khan feels the same way, there are loads of great match-ups for him at lightweight.
But yeah Warren is the best promoter to have if you're British and not good enough to win a world title. Look at Alex Arthur, who has been handed the WBO SFW title because Warren 'misunderstood' Joan Guzman's visa situation and so the fight had to be cancelled. Arthur will probably have an easy defence or two and then lose it to another Warren fighter who can make him a few quid.

look what happened to naseem. naseem to me was on the level of erik and marco talent and skills-wise and accomplished a lot in his short career but unfortunately a lot of americans don't realize this because imo naseem was already past-prime when he went to the u.s. and people put too much into him losing to marco.
if you look at a few of his fights prior and after the marco fight you can tell naseem wasn't the same naseem anymore. naseem has a terrific resume but his legacy was hurt by people's inaccurate belief that he got "exposed" during the marco fight.

Amir Khan needs to shut up he has not fought anybody with a good record or stoppage record all he has fought has been feather fisted has beens or natural featherweights like gomez on saturday and how can he say he is going to be the man man when willie limond drop him and he has no power

At least he is putting his head on the chopping block, you have to admire him for that.
Like everyone else I have question marks about his chin, but if floyd mayweather says he has all the physical tools he must be very good
Amateur or not I was very impressed by both of his performances against Kindelan, probably the only really top level fighter he has fought,
