Khan sets sights on America

[toysale]

khan vs maidana...

If Warren or Roach was smart, they wouldn't let this fight happen yet until he's matured a bit more. He's chinny as it is, Maidana would knock him out in 6 I think as much as I woulkd want Khan to win.

yeah if he fights in the states next it'll probably be Morales. Hope not, Barrera was enough. I didnt like that, was angry for a while after it. I like watching Khan, but I dont want to see him against another past it legend.

Unless your counting Hatton as a past it legend. I'd like to see that. Would answer a lot of questions about what both fighters have in the tank. Hatton wins imo.

Yeah I don't like to see it especially the barrera fight as he didn't have much to win, with Erik even though he is shot, he does have an opportunity to create history and a big pay day, although obviously from a pure boxing stand point it is a terrible match up for fans, but it is a legitamit way of getting khan exposure in the US.

Not sure about what would happen with khan v hatton, think ricky punches resistance is gone, good punches just seem to go straight to his legs, im not just talking about the ko shot from pac, the shots in the 1st round were not huge shots, and the shots from lazcano also, khan obviously can be caught so can't see it going the distance I guess it would be who started landing first, and to be honest at this stage I think it would be khan.

Hatton ain't returning.

I don't get why people want to see Khan-Hatton anymore though? If Khan wins it was because ' Hatton is shot ' and if Hatton wins then there goes Khan's career.

Good point, I don't have much interest in seeing it

The only reason both camps would push for it is the $ involved.

Amir Khan set his sights on America immediately after winning his first world title.

right move...

maybe brother amir is committed not to make the same mistake by joe calzaghe fighting in the US a little too late...

Khans a world Champion now, he has to show the same heart that all should show and face the best regardless of them been big punchers and where it happens should be irrelevant, he is the second worst world champion ever now as he has beaten the worst and your only as good as your last fight, at least Kotelnik had the heart of a warrior and was prepared to fight anyone anywhere, lets see if Khan has the heart of a warrior.

Khan will break America. I'd be very surprised if he don't

i thnk he should fight timothy bradley in the USA next, he a champ now right, should have nothing to fear.

The man in your AVI has yet to come over to the States and fight. We will see though in the tournament he is in if he gets his game on in Vegas against one of the American fighters but the first round is in Germany so at least for now he hasn't crossed the pond....Lefty

Honestly Kessler is making a lot more money fighting over seas,it would take a few huge wins in the states to equal the cash he is making i germany denmark etc.

I have respect for Khan but he is not at that level yet.

Amir Khan set his sights on America immediately after winning his first world title.

The 22-year-old was crowned WBA light-welterweight champion in just his 22nd professional fight after out-pointing Andreas Kotelnik on Saturday night.
