    Good enough fighter, I just don't think he's special. Reminds of of Prince Naseem too much, and that's always a bad thing.
    at least Naz Proved himself he was not all hype IMO ,he fought at Championship level and obliterated good competition and ended up losing to one of the best FW ever in the history of the sport Marco Barrera was and is a godamn legend

    Khan is a millionaire and he has done nothing and he has knocked over bums ,what would Naz have done with Khans oposition it does not bare thinking about they would have to bring the stretcher in after 20 seconds of the fight

            Hes more technically sound as a boxer than Naz could ever be, Not necessarily saying hes better but two completely different styles to compare.

            You have to realise Khan doesn't pick his opponents and if he did, He would be fighting Manny Pacquiao next week, Hes that type of fighter .. Win or lose he wants to fight the best which is why i don't think he will sign with warren again.

            Hes exiting to watch, Knows hes not perfect and wants to be as good as he can possible be, Maybe he doesn't deserve some of the hype hes getting based on what hes acheived so far, But he definately hasn't done anything to deserve hate ...

                  I am a Brit, I like Khan and I hope he does well and wins world titles. I think he is an excellent prospect if he can overcome his chin/ defense isues.

                  I don't understand the hostility towards him, and I'm not aware of anyone on this site hyping him to any great degree. Everyone here seems to describe him as what he is, a gifted attacking boxer with the potential to do well, but who has issues to overcome first.

                  Good luck to him I say.

                    I didn't even mention his abilities or how good he is as a fighter, Just saying he has a proper fighters mentality.
