He was in the news over here again this week whinging about how nobody in the UK likes him and how he is thinking about moving to the U.S to get away from all of us "Jeslous" haters... Aside from the fact he gets under my skin for various reasons I still think under Freddy he can become great as he has great skills, but the question is can Amir keep his head on the ground for long enough great champion or not?
No. Too many flaws. Aside from his chin, he seems incapable of fighting on the inside. Also, at the highest level, his power can be described as average at best.
A slight exaggeration :rofl Khan is much better now than he was against Prescott, he'd be able to keep Maidana at distance for a while but he'd get caught and KO'd eventually i agree.
Yes he can, if he can master the art of defense under roach, if he can protect the chin...he can go quite far....and I really dont like Khan.....he throws punches in bunches that is what he is mostly good at.....the other thing he needs to learn is how to clinch, he is not very good at that either.....
lmao i laughed so hard when i saw that knockdown in the amateur's. He had bambi legs after just being lightly touched, dude's chin is grade A china but if his speed is what everyone says maybe he can get around it.
"Become"? Seriously, though, there have been boxers who have been very successful with less talent than Khan and even more severe weaknesses. However, there's a line between "successful" and "great" that Khan can't cross. If he's dedicated and continues to learn his craft he can be a solid champion, but you can't be great with a chin that can be sparked even by light hitters.
