Comments Thread For: De La Hoya: Khan Can Be The Greatest British Boxer Ever

Khan wont beat Bradley

[Uturn]

Maybe. I still think Khan will rack up another loss soon though. I just feel at 147 Amir won't be that effective.

[Yaconcha]

yeah i agree, he could be but, AND I DO MEAN BUT, HE ISNT,WASNT,WONT BE OR WILL BE....EVER.
yes he is quick and yes he proved he has something of a chin and thats it.
naseem hamed was quick and had a chin regardless of what the yanks say he beat everything they had and even came off the floor to do it (a number of times) but, he was a pure cash register,entertainer and raw punch power that turned many of his fights around and out in one shot.
he was as bigger draw here in the uk as pacman is in the phillipines.
then we have, nigel benn who went to yanksville and beat all their **** that were brave enough and toney and jones didnt want it with him,watson or eubank.
turpin,lewis,honeygan,buchanan,calzaghe etc
however, its just rediculous to even imagine at this stage in the career of this ********* that he "is" this or that, oscar ur a ****.
does anybody remember what happened to khan in his very early unearned first ppv event? yeah, exactly. 54 seconds and its nunights. ****.
it just goes to show the high regard in which us brits are held by the yanks!
oscar, ya mums a crackwhore and stinks of piss and me and my friends want ur wife as the main event in one of our bukkake parties.

khan will lose the majority of the british public if he carries on the way he is going. hatton was a success because he was humble. khans team are arrogant and it rubs off on him.
when noone in the UK gives a toss about him he and oscar won't be able to trade off his 'britishness'.
sadly lewis was the same...he was jamaican until it came to fightcamp and then all of a sudden he was london born again.
being british sells tickets and ppvs. right now I'd say that mccloskey is more popular with true fight fans in britain than khan.

,

Oscar is such an F'ing ****** why does he keep on opening his mouth.

It's quite clear that Oscar doesn't know the history of the sport.

Is Jimmy Wilde on that list? Or did I miss him?

I would put Lewis>Calzaghe.

And, Hamed>McGuigan.

Wilde should be #1, if Fitzsimmons doesn't count as British.

The only decent british fighters are Lewis and Hamed. Khan has a good shot at being the greatest one ever.

You know they were British fighters before the 90's right?

Yes, none of them were any good though.
