Kinda weird how much delight people are taking in a young boxer getting KO'd

I've been expecting this to happen to Khan since the Limmond fight. I think he was just over hyped and over protected by Warren. It seems pretty laughable now that people thought he was ready for a world title, especially in such a strong division.

Whilst Khan is young and talented I wonder where he can go from here. You just can't improve a weak chin.

its not him, its what he represents. he represents the overhyped frank warren creations that have haunted british boxing for years. obviously i feel a little sorry for khan, i hope he's alright etc but it was good to see the ko just to see the look on warrens face as his last cash cow got slaughtered

Whatever he said....who cares? Boxers have been running their mouths to excess since Ali, and you can't really pay attention to any of it.

I completely agree sir. Sad he lost the way he did, but this ain't no cup of tea sport.

for me the fact that he was sooooooooooo arrogant makes me glad he got a reality check. i mean this guy ran out the mouth about beating hatton, and pac ffs. he got owned, and he deserved it imo. it always comes back around.

Amir Khan was never arrogant, he just had high aspirations. Yes, he said would like to fight Hatton or Pacman if the opportunity came by, but he was never arrogant about it, he was just doing what all boxers do and thats hyping themselves. I like Amir because he was a good role model for young kids and always entertained.

Amir is still a good young prospect, and if his team can find a way to improve his defensive frailties then he still has a bright future.
