    Khan only really deserves sh*t for the way he handled himself in the driving conviction.

    everything else, in the way he's helped his community and is willing to avenge defeats (remember Kindelan as well) has been superb.

    He lacks the chin to be something special, which is a tremendous shame, because he has great potential in most other areas of his game.

    Personally, I think he should do the Louis approach: get the title, and then beat Prescott, cos he won't really feel like the champion without avenging that defeat.

    With Amir Khan's chin he will get brutally KO'd again

    What has his driving conviction got to do with the way he boxes.

    I think is very brave of Khan to take. People here must have seen the fight against that Toledo, where he tried to eat him, Prescott did not look very good. He has got a hard hit but if Khan keeps his wits about him, and hopefully keep his chin away at all costs, can win. Can he have his chin removed, surely hes doesn't need it, the way he speaks it might be best anyway?

    Khan could just threaten to go elsewhere if Warren won't listen.

    sorry, I didn't put that very well.

    i mean he gets a lot of sh*t for little reason. If his chin isn't up to it, that doesn't make him a cop out in this sport. I like his attitude, and the way he heeps trying to coming back

    i simply mean that if he got sh*t for his driving conviction, i would understand the criticism of how he behaved at that point.

    Other than that, I think his attitude has been fine, and he isn't deserving of the crud to which he's subjected.

    if the rematch happens it would only be a 3-4 round fight, prescott is a big puncher but has little skill, get tired and runs out of ideas if khan avoided a big hook in the first 2-3-4 rounds he wins easy

    You are all assuming that Khan honestly wants the fight and isnt just saying this for the papers. I havent read the article tbh but say he is asked whether he wants a rematch by the reporter, what is he going to say - no?

    Of course not.

    If he does take this fight then all praise to him.

    I'd love to see it but I cant see Warren letting it happen especially as he's currently in dispute over options on Prescott with his current promoter

    Fair play to Khan, but in reality it is the only logical move. I'm sure warren will be chuffed with this, the ppv numbers will be sky high!

    lol think he's trying to put down British fighters. funny when bitchs try to put down others and end up looking like idiots.

    prescott will just go in wading. he's bound to clip him. could be curtains for khan. major props to him tho.
