    He`s ovderrated, he was never even near to Floyd`s level, and even after losing couldn`t stop stalking the man.

    Pretty much a punch perfect performance from prescott tbf. Surprised he never came to much because off that performance he looked pretty decent.

    Khan just did not have the ring iq for boxing. You dont really see guys in their thirties needing their coach to bark out orders constantly from the side of the ring apron. He should have retired from boxing after prescott. People will say thats stupid but i bet khans took absolute shellackings in his career. Especially in freddie roachs gym. Maidana pummelled him. Garcia pummeled him. Prescott pummelled him. Canelo. Crawford was starting to beat him up. Peterson got a lot off on him. Other guys have hurt him. Thats before the gym wars. The boy showed plenty of heart....had exceptionaly fast hands...became a good fighter under roach....but his boxing brain was so low he was a danger to himself. He should never have been at the level he fought at because of it. His exceptionaly fast hands we,re the only thing that got him there. Tbf his hard work helped as well...but your always up against it without a boxing brain.

    Not having a go at all because his approach was commendable. Khans a good kid really. But you dont really see guys fighting at that level needing their hand held as much as khan needed from his coaches. Borderline dangerous.

    He's a horrible person, he's **** but thinks he's on the same level as Mayweather or Pac, done lots of good chicken dances, etc.

    If Khan had an iron chin he'd have been an ATG, probably.

    Sadly, however, his chin is below gypsum on the mohs scale.

    No it wasn`t his chin, it was just that he was far too easy to catch clean, it`s like he was fighting blind or somethuing fighters could out-fox him by setting traps, he stayed green his entire career.

    Laughed my thrupennies off when this happened. The moment Amir Khan started talking about himself in the 3rd person, you just knew he was an utter knob.
