Comments Thread For: Amir Khan Appointed as President of WBC Middle East Boxing Council

[Dean_Razorback]

is he ever fighting again? i wanna see him KO'd at least one more time before he retires

[Inspired]

he may not be middle eastern but he now lives in dubai or at least spends a lot of time there.

[thack]

Old glass jaw with his WBC inter continental belt trying to pass it off as the real deal.....he'll suit the WBC 's dodgy antics down to the ground ...perfect partnership!

[Eff Pandas]

This is true as well. But he might be done. And it's nice that he's a recognizable face for the youth. That goes a long way in my opinion.

If he's done boxing fair play. If he isn't this is no good.

Chinless move.

Huhhhh! U HIGH

Learn proper English ***in idiot why do grown men spell U instead of you like they are school girls texting. U R a Kool-ero

I actually agree with this. I'm not sure how many of you have the knowledge of what this position would actually involve, or do on a daily basis. Myself, I don't know. But if there's a direction to develop boxing in any way shape or for, and it helps build the sport, even if it's small, it's more focused development than we have without it. I don't know Khan personally, but I hope he does well with whatever direction it goes. Hell I'm happy if a local gym would open up around me. Why would we hate something of this nature? Again, a bunch of negative nancys here

Of course man these guys have personal issues with Khan he was never my favorite boxer always chinny and I enjoyed watching him get knocked out a few times but you can't hate on the guy for what he does outside the ring we have guys like alexguiness over here who don't know the definition of philanthropist too busy watching Gary Coleman reruns to understand.

Jesus Christ dude you have me rolling here. You’re going to bat hard for a boxer who you enjoyed watching get sparked. I’d hate to laugh at a fighter you really liked.
I’m not hating on khan, more amused than any kind of animosity.
His heart seems in the right place but the guy is a car crash in front of the cameras at times. Seems so naive and shoots from the hip, his Covid theories are tinfoil helmet tackle, the world knows his intimate family business how they don’t like his wife and his su****ions she was cheating on him with Joshua, even calling out brook for being a closet ****sexual on ifl tv.
The bit that actually had me laughing though was the gary Coleman reruns comment, not laughing at you but laughing how obscure the reference is. What do you mean? Different strokes reference?

What does any of that matter tho? This is about getting kids in boxing. Creating avenues for troubled youth to have a way out. Maybe trying to get venues opened up to stage events. Who knows. But Khan's personal opinions mean diddly squat. It's like saying Michael Vick couldn't play football worth a damn because you didn't agree with his dog fighting stuff..... the man could still ball!

I'm smoking your mom

Why the *** do you care so much you sound like a hating bitter perra. Nobody in the Arab world gives two ***s? Well his last fight was in Saudi Arabia and it had a good turn out so who the *** are you to say anything little man you don't need to give me a history lesson about Pakistan at the end of the day Khan is a ****** boxer in an era where is there is not many Prince Naseem sure as hell wasn't going to run the job who else was better equipped? Sadam Ali?

Get the *** out dude you are just hating on the guy and hating on boxing classic elitist mindset there are over 4 million Pakistanis living in the middle east no **** they have a presence there a lot in the UAE and Saudi Arabia so yeah kiss a ****.


What will the sanctioning bodies do? The same as all the others pendejo organize fights and rank fighters in hopes of them fighting for something bigger than a regional belt.

This forum ain’t in Spanish Diego. Just a reminder.
Saudi Arabia also hosted AJ-Ruiz and it did pretty well. It’s called marketing and $$$.

Maybe the WBA can next appoint Brandon Rios a position in Chile to promote boxing there.
