Amir Khan General - Pros/Cons

[Beercules]

Amir can box but his chin is like a wet Kleenex

[MarcoHooker]

If you don't practice Ramadan you won't make a comment like that.

Ask someone who does practice it they would tell you the beauty of it.

How Ramadan be con? It is a religious month once a year. If it clashes with training, you have 11 months to compromise it with.

I mean it's a con because it makes him fight less often

As a fan, I resent him for that

Every thread seems to go the same way, so how about we try and settle why some people like him and some hate him

Pros

• Heart (in the ring) - Always gets up, wants to fight on
• Speed/Natural talents - Potential
• Exciting fighter
• Never been outboxed
• Will fight anyone - Has challenged low high risk, low reward fighters like
• Bradley, Josetio Lopez & Collazo
• Prepared to change his game/learn
  [*]Personality
• Warrior - Fought a dangerous style despite his chin
• Had a pretty good run at 140, better than anyone from the same period
• or since

Cons

• Heart (outside the ring) - Looking for a big payday to cashout
• Speed/Natural talents - Potential wasted
• No inside game
• Ramadan
• Thicker than a bag of ****
• Talks so much ****
• Weak chin (Not glass but not enviable)
• He has losses on his record

His lack of loyalty to his trainers can be seen as both a pro or con, since he changes trainers because he wants to be a better boxer, that's admirable but leaving them seems kinda fickle but then again Roach and the like aren't as bro-tier as Robert Garcia

I disagree with these two. First: He hasn't fought with any top opponent since 2012, his last 3 fights were: Caros Molina, Diaz, Collazo and the next will probably Josesito Lopez who isn't more than a C-D level journeyman. So his recent resume is mediocre at best... And he ducked the already signed Alexander fight in december because he was scared to death that he would lose and then he can't fight with Mayweaher in May. Maidana fucked up his plan after all but that tells a lot about Khan's confidence. He wants to go against Mayweather but he is scared of a hypothetical Devon loss. After this you think this guy thinks just one minute that he is capable to beat Mayweather?

And his personality is kinda anthipathetic not sympathetic. But that's naturally subjective...
With that being said I don't hate the guy but he needs to fight better opponents and don't fuck around with Josesito Lopez or other C level guys and after that wait that maybe he earned the Mayweather payday with that. Now he's literally trying to talk himslef into a Mayweather fight.

How much less often? it's only one month of a year. That could be off training time.

If not for Ramadan, he'd be fighting 3 times a year, that's why his rebuilding process has taken so long

[Doctor_Tenma]

Just annoyed at the fact that he acts as though he's suppose to be relevant.

[KillaMane26]
