    The reason why I watched Saturday nights fight was because I was more interested to see what Rubio has done with him...which looks to me absolutely ****all.

    He jumped into that fight like a school boy and got put on his ass.

    He seriously needs a good pedigree trainer...why the **** he turned down Floyd Snr I do not know, although my su****ions tell me he's brainwashed by Warren.
    no amount of training is going to turn a glass chin into granite.

    fighting defensively will definitely help him win some fights, but his popularity will plummet.

      How can you know when all you saw was 52 seconds of the first round? If a guy gets blown out in 52 seconds, that's not the trainer's fault, it's the matchmaker's and your own fault.

        Amir khan must concentrate on the art of winning and not getting hit. It is the only way forward for him. He should forget about trying to be the most exciting fighter england ever produced.
        He is an olympian and a boxer first and foremost. Boxing well and not getting hit, everything else will follow.
        Look at PBF.

          I still wonder what Kahn was thinking about when he traded with someone that had 19 wins with 17 of them by knockout? That was just dumb on so many levels, why put yourself at risk like that? Especially since he has shown a weak chin many times. The first hook that Prescott threw was grazing and he still had Kahn out of his feet. Kahn needs to to get with Floyd SR. He can tighten up his defense and MAKE him box the right way.

            That's if he and Mayweather Sr. have good chemistry together. Angelo Dundee couldn't make David Estrada into a champion and Emmanuel Steward couldn't get Cintron a win over Margarito.

              Its something that is in the fighter. Kahn has the skills and potential to become a very good champion and Floyd SR. just has something about him that makes his prospects respect him. Estrada is not the most talented guy in the world but he is very exciting and the division is simply too good. Cintron is never beating Margarito. He wouldn't match well against anyone that could take his punches that he is use to knocking fighters out with and still keep coming like he was never hit in the first place. I definitely see what you mean though. Steward could never get through Taylor's head but when Jermain got back with Ozel Nelson, then he looked brilliant.

                He didnt come out wild or nothing, he got hit and couldnt handle the power. The only mistake was the ability to take a shot. He barely got clipped by the first punch and it rocked his world and he couldnt avoid shots after that. His ability to take Prescott's power was the problem.

                  I think Khans chin could get better. He probably isnt used to getting hit much. Now he knows whats its like it could even benefit him. Those punches are a shock to him, because i doubt he ever gets hit in sparring properly much.

                      That shot landed better than you might think. I watched it in slow mo (VLC Media Player) and that shot landed pretty well on Khans temple. And we all know what Temple shots can do to you.
