Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Amir Khan Can Be a Five Division Champion

[ts33]

3 division champ is the limit i think.

Can you really see Khan in the MW division - against guys the size of Hopkins/Taylor/Pavlik?

168? Forget it....

No Oscar, Amir will become a three-division champion, then retire at 28yo.

He needed to get a belt at 135 to have a chance, and even then I would doubt he could because he would need to grab a middleweight strap which is a bridge to far if you ask me.

That's right, and if so, 4 would have been possible.

I can see Amir as a 3-division champion, maybe even 4, but fifth division is too much for him. But you never know, Pac is coming from Flyweight. These days conditioning is much better than in old days, that's why just recently we had DLH, Pac, Floyd, who counquered 5 division

The lower divisions are much easier to climb through.

It depends on when/where you started.

Then again, I suppose we could see some **** like Pac/Marg or Canelo/Hatton.

khan can barely win a title at 147 if he ever steps up he will get smashed 154 he will get ktfo in 60 seconds hes not that good did you see when hamed stepped up to fight antonio he got man handled this will happen to khan and his chinny assss

I can see Khan winning a title (of some description) at 154.

Technically, a fight against Robert Guerrero at 148 for a JMW title, is feasible in this day and age. They give those fkn things away now.

there was a reason that Manny could do it. He started at 106 at age 16, for his first fight only. By the end of the first year he'd had about 10 fights and already was a flyweight. Within another year or two he had become a super-bantam.

The answer......the kid was still growing. very simple. It happens. It happened to me as well. Manny happens to be one of those kids who only stop growing at any age up to about 25.

I doubt Khan can become 5 Division Weight Champion!
Primarily due to his weak chin...

I think he can be 3 weight champion...


Khan-Berto at 147 lb would be great after Khan clean up the 140 lb division or defeat Tim Bradley!

Pacquiao won titles in 5 divisions in only 2 years 8 months/7 fights

and he'd already fought in 6 divisions before that, winning titles in 3 of them
