Comments Thread For: Khan: I'll Always Have World Title Fights, Brook Will Be There Too

[Curtis Harper]

This is why it's so much fun to root for Khan's failure. The Brook fight will always be there.....for Khan to duck.

[hugh grant]

It will always be there but maybe for wrong reasons now. It use to be to see who will win.
But now for brook it's just to ko Khan and for fans to see brook ko khan. And brook don't care if khan.loses next 3 fights he still wants khan.

[Scopedog]

Why? he is still much better than Collazo alike guys. he can make million dollar paydays against guys like Broner etc..

That's debatable at this point. He's probably better, but not by a whole lot. Both have Samuel Vargas as their most recent win and both probably had the same amount of difficulty, with Collazo getting cut and earning an SD while Khan had to contend with a hard knockdown. Sure Khan beat Collazo easily in 2014 but Khan has slid a long way down since then. Besides, I don't think Khan's pride has him interested in that kind of opposition and I don't think the typical boxing viewer in both the UK and elsewhere are that interested either.

I presumed Khan was done at the top level after the Canelo fight, and feel that was pretty clear after the Vargas fight.

But now, his punch resistance has totally gone. As soon as Crawford glanced with a right hand, Khan did the bambi instantly.

Brook is also at the wrong side of his prime, but not nearly as damaged as Khan. Nowhere near!

Ok, let me correct my self: he is still bigger name than Collazo alike guys and he can still make big paydays.

I'm lost for words with this buffoon but i'll try to make sense of this one's ridiculous statement.

Khan after 6 rounds was 7 rounds down 10-8 first round and was losing the 6th. Amir Khan never won a round and was nearly knocked out in the very 1st round......... again!

After this terrible performance against a guy who Khan told everyone he had the size and abilities advantage to win we all know he quit. It's plain and obvious for all
to see that the punch was low but at the top of the right thigh.

After this performance ,which I called 'terrible' , it was, but expected. Amir Khan should look at it honestly and say I tried but my best wasn't and isn't good enough at this level.He has made lots of money and seems now with his latest comments to be seriously suffering from the sport .Khan was again battered, his family should now step in as this is very sad.

Amir for his part see's this quitting episode as another chance to nail another shot at the world title .

Terrence Crawford is a small welterweight but the only good one Khan has ever faced .Alexander all those years ago and Collazzo had already been badly beaten more than once by the time Khan fought them and Collazo was a recovering alcoholic.

I really hope that Khan goes and crawls back under his little rock with his smaller band of worshippers .He is proving to be very bad for the sport and worrying in a recent interview he had to be told (having tried mid interview to Google it!) that the Jacob's v Canelo fight had not already taken place as he assured the female interviewer it had!!!

It really is time for this nonsense to stop and if Khan insists on another fight he should never again be allowed as he was in this case to fight for a world title with at least doing something to deserve it......go away Khan.

[Straightener]

They should withheld some of his purse for being a fanny ... khan robbed us of the chance to see the stanky leg

Khans right though there’s plenty of daftys that will pay to watch him fight .... his fans are mostly not boxing fans they are religion fans .

[Rip Chudd]

I wish Brook had the resolve to stand by what he said and not give this dude the time of day. Especially since Khan has avoided the fight for years

That’s not going to happen am afraid, Brook in two months time would start it all over again, another champ, former champ, prospect coming up would call on Khan in the USA and boom Khan got another “bigger” fight than the Brook one. Rinse and repeat until Khan does a homecoming fight in Bolton and then retire.

[champion4ever]

It's too late Amir your reputation and credibility is shot to pieces. You need the Brook fight now in order to stay relevant in the sport but your boxing career is over.

You are done. You don't have it anymore. Please retire before you get hurt. You can't see punches coming anymore. Your speed, chin and reflexes are gone.

That disgraceful display of gamesmanship and sportsmanship were both shameful and repugnant. Not only did you rob Bud of his career defining moment and made the fight solely about you but you dishonored yourself and your fans.

No one wants to see you fight again so go away.
