      right now none of them are very well known. but Amir Khan has been mentioned way more in the U.S. than the other boxers
      • After Bradley's win over Peterson, Bradley was asked about Khan.
      • Brian kenny asked Freddie Roach on national tv about Amir Khan
      • ESPN talked on television about the Khan-Prescott fight
      • ESPN talked on television about the Khan-MAB fight
      • A US TV network named Amir Khan in 2007 the best prospect of the year
      • A US TV network named Khan-Prescott the upset of the year
      • after the Ortiz-Maidana fight, Maidana was asked about Khan


      All the top fighters or well known fighters based in US have talked/mentioned Amir Khan: Mayweather Jr, Manny Pacquiao, Timothy Bradley, Juan Manuel Marquez, Paulie Malignaggi, Marcos Maidana, Victor Ortiz, Nate Campbell and Devon Alexander.

      Well known people in the US who have mentioned Amir Khan: Brian Kenny, Freddie Roach, Bob Arum, De La Hoya, Richard Shaefer, Teddy Atlas, Max Kellerman and etcetera

      I didnt vote but speaking as a hard core AMERI-CAN! I would say its this guy



      Eastern European

            Amir Khan gets talked about a lot but he is less accomplished than David Haye, Who was undisputed world champ at Cruiserweight.

            But Amir should have a great future, with Roach and Pac for a good sparring partner.
