    Khan: "The Man Who Would Be King"

    Anyone see this on the broadcast? Kinda hard to miss, seems they think this guy is the next Oscar over there, how big is he in Europe, my fellow Brits? If he lost the fight that moniker would look very silly being broadcast like that, it was almost like it was a given he would win.

    yeah,thought it was a little overdramatic and over the top, but it seems like the brits are desperate for a new a face of boxing since Calz and Hatton are through and there isn't too much faith in Haye.

      You guys must understand that we are not desperate for a big superstar, especially not Khan.

      It's Frank Warren who promotes him and comes up with all this bull****. We'd rather concentrate on Cleverly or the Olympians.

        It's a disgrace. King of what? An organisation that hands out belts like candy? We all know what lurks at the top of the 140 division. Khan is a champion in the minds of those dumb enough to pay £15 to watch him fight, and only those minds.

            Yeah, but as Demise pointed out, Khan did not come up with it. He needs a new promoter. You Brits should be angry with the Warren, not Khan.
