Amir Khan - Delusional... or a great publicist

[Nights King]

It's called delusional to us as fans but believing in yourself to him as the boxer. You should never limit yourself otherwise you'll end up becoming a joke like Ortiz. However don't step of out bounds that you know will cause more harm than good.

When your are told since young how great you are and going to be and get special treatment you tend to belive it

its working so id say its good. dont care too much about the mainstream oinion about him, hes a good salesman and heart in the right place whenever in the ring, he just needs his head sometimes as we saw against garcia..

[Weebler I]

Has Khan merely just worked out that to get ahead in boxing you have to talk an unadulterated amount of ****e, irrespective of talent or achievement... or does he actually believe what he spouts...

His stablemate, Andre Ward, has got a significantly better CV than Khan, but Ward barely ranks a mention... primarily because he is God-fearing and seldom lavishes praise on himself.

No, it's because he's perceived as boring and fights in a Euro-division.

Met Eddie Hearn's pressman, Anthony Pressman (no jokes, real 2nd name LOLCAKES), just after Khan and Kell had it off (steady now) on ringside.

Apparently straight after the cameras got turned off Khan was shaking Kell's hand, being a really cool, nice non-hysterical dude while Kell sat there like the confused lisping spanner he is.

Make of that what you will but I've got a feeling it's primarily a persona, that admittedly goes too far much of the time, that he puts on for the cameras.

I don't know why he is so popular but I can't stand the guy. He doesn't believe his own BS or he would not be so careful picking opponents. I think his main popularity comes from the UK. They don't get as many high ranked fighters as they would like and when they get one they really treasure him even if he is not that good. They are very loyal to him through victory and defeat. I think most Americans think Khan is a weak chinned big mouth without a chance in hell of beating Mayweather. If Khan really believed in himself he would have risked the Alexander fight and he would have rematched Prescott long ago.The guy he is fighting is not that good and beating Ortiz is no big deal anymore. He should have fought Brook for big money but I don't think he is confident of beating Brook, who has never lost or been knocked down and is a better fighter than Khan in my opinion.

One thing that really bothers me about Khan is he reminds everyone he beat Maidana about every other sentence. So what. That was years ago and Maidana has improved while Khan doesn't seem as good as he was then.That fight was close and Khan was badly hurt and helped out of trouble by the ref who kept stopping the action when there was no reason to. Maidana has always tried to rematch Khan and I would pick him to KO Khan in a rematch.

Believing in your self is delusional and you should always just go with what is available to you and not worry about trying to achieve things beyond your reach. Cuz then people will call you delusional and you just dont wanna be labeled that do you? pfff.

[Box-Office]

Outside of the Olympics -- Khan has a pretty lame resume

Kotelnik, Maidana, Judah, Malignaggi are all lame.

Peterson had to juice up to beat Khan so what does that tell you?

[KING MEAT]

I wanna see him get knocked out.
