Has Amir Khan become underrated?

[Amandlala]

No! What has he actually achieved in the pro game? He was meant to be a skilled amateur going into the pro rank with a silver from the Olympic at 17. The Olympic brought him instant star status in the UK fair enough, but since he turned pro he has been a huge disappointment IMHO.

He beat Maidana...and was and remains the only British boxer to move out of the UK to train full time in the US, with US management, since Lewis.

Fury looks to be following him at a much older age.

I'm not saying Khan belongs on the top 10 P4P list or anything but people are treating him like a total bum now for some reason. Lest we forget this guy was an olympic silver medalist who has 9 former world champions on his resume. I'm not saying he'll beat Crawford but he will definitely give him more of a fight than Garcia did Spence. The closer this fight gets the more i'm actually looking forward to it. You got two guys with great speed and skills. It should be an entertaining fight and Khan will probably win some rounds and make it competitive.

Khan will give Crawford more of a fight than Mikey did Spence because Khan is NOT 2 weight classes smaller than Crawford...Mikey was 2 weight classes smaller. That's what happens when you jump 2 weight classes in your 30's.

And, again, the nuthugging is unreal. You can't blame Mikey for making it a boring fight. He moved up 2 weight classes for the fight. Erralda is the one who boxed safe. Erralda is the one who won't fight Crawford.

Amir Khan has no meaningful wins since 2011. Khan will get hurt at some point and I still see a stoppage win for TC

Great achievement....

If he didn't have that glass chin, he'd probably be undefeated.
The man has heart & a pretty good skillset.
Never backs down from a challenge.

Ignore Ray*. He's an old cynical hater.

Khan *WAS* a great JWW, no question about it. Not ATG because he was lacking that signature win. A shame Khan couldn't get Bradley to fight :-/ and Bradley DID DUCK that fight.

Khan in 2019 just doesn't stand a legitimate chance against a Terrence Crawford fighter. Khan would do better versus Spence, honestly. Spence goes at one speed and has tactic. Khan has faster hands and feet and could use that to blitzkrieg Erralda...at least for a couple of rounds

How long until ya'll except that this guy is trash?

The word is "accept" you illiterate moron. Maybe you should actually respond to the content of my post instead but I doubt you're smart enough to do that.

No, it's not that people are underrating him it's that he is not the same fighter that he was 7 or 8 years ago. Since that time he has shown signs of decline and slippage. At 32, his body is just not the same as he has aged for the worse.
