Comments Thread For: Photos: Amir Khan Working Hard With Rubio in Miami

[hectari]

Wtf happen to this guys body? seriously he has strange looking muscle shape, dude looks so out of shape.

I always thought Khan was some skinny guy who never walked above 155 pounds, than when he debuted at 147 he was over 160 pounds on fight night, in these pics he has to be at least int he 170s.

Dude looks like Pakistani version of Erik Morales, I never knew he had such hair arms and chest.



Here he is for his weigh in with Collazo, dude shaved his entire body including arm hair,

lol amir khan getting hated on as always

when has this guy missed weight?
when has he had stamina issues?
when has he had a bad training camp?

the guy needed a break , he had a long camp for collazo and he couldnt train hard during ramadan anyway

Khan is working out even though he is on a holiday in Miami. A disciplined fighter and a true student of the game.

Also I'd ask the same questions as Jas.

Like others said, Khan is always in great shape for fights. And now, he is competing in 147 so i think that he probably has been more relaxed about the weight issue.

Fighters don't walk around at their "weigh-in" weight. When you see them flexing at a weigh in, that's not something they sustain between fights. That's something they work hard for.

If Khan is fasting, he's probably not training long hours because the food is energy. I thought it was understood that these athletes are already in such great condition, that their bodies are primed to "get back on track" when they get back to training again.

The additional weight or softness you see between fights isn't 5-10 years of true fat gain. They lose the weigh in a matter of months.

True to what you posted, but Floyd gains 1 - 3 pounds after weigh in , B hop walks around no more than 10 pounds over his fighting weight, and so does Andre Ward very disciplined athletes. I hear Shawn Porter does the same. people think they will be stronger on fight night by gaining 10 - 20 pounds day after weigh in but you are actually stronger by maintaining your fighting weight for that particular division.

Lol at any excuse to hate Khan!

The guy isn't even in camp, just doing a little training with his former trainer which is very nice.

He's always been in shape fight night & always made weight. Let him be, jeez!

And regarding the hair, so what? Men not allowed to have hairy chest or forearms now??

[Greed.]

tbf, he trains hard during camp and has always shown good stamina and conditioning during his fights.

very true, he's always in tip top shape come fight night

he puts in the work in the gym

i'm guessing because of ramadam (not sure if i am spelling it right) his eating patterns were messed up, and which usually means one binges on junk food

he's got 3 months to work it off, doesnt look all that hard, just a layer of flab

[Realizniguhnit]

Khan should do some kind of weight lifting and add a little muscle when he's not in training. He doesn't even look that strong here. Hell, I'm probably stronger than Khan right now lol sure this isn't a weight lifting contest but imo if Khan added a little more power at 147 he could have a few more KO's lord knows he's going to need it if he plans on staying at 147 cuz his power starts lacking late in fights then he gets to holding...

Which gym is he at? I should dust off my boxing gear and show up down there to spar. There's a 99.9% chance that he gives me a boxing lesson, BUT I know for a fact that if I were lucky enough to land my patented right hook on that glass chin that he will go down.
