Amir Khan announces retirement

He fought the best at 140. He wasted his prime at WW playing it safe in hopes of getting Floyd or Manny in the ring. Either way he had great career especially considering his obvious weakness but should have stayed at 140 longer..

 

Overrated hype job his entire career for sure.

Thankfully I won't have to hear any more delusion from this guy about him beating top fighters. This is a guy that said with a straight face he could of beat prime Floyd. I don't even know how he kept the laughter in.

 

uh no. lol

 

He always brought excitement that is for sure. He may have been a bit of a tosser, but always brought good drama.

I am grateful for his career and the fun it brought. Win or lose.

 

Khan saw what we all saw in the brook crawford fight and finally decides to take the gamble and it still didnt go his way. Prime for prime that would always be the result. Love him or hate him khan done a lot for british boxing and got rich in the process.

 

Floyd would have KO'ed or TKO'ed him late.

 

Smart move. He's got lots of cash in the bank and can enjoy as many papadoms as he wants.

 

Should have happened 4 years ago.

 

One small problem though. Crawford is the best p4p fighter in the world and Khan isn't even a top 200 p4p fighter. But yes that's why he took the fight for sure though.

 

Sorry but I've got no time or respect for this guy.

He drives like a maniac and it's lucky he hasn't killed somebody.

I hope he uses his money to hire a chauffeur to take him around.

Good for him. Dude has nothing to be ashamed of. Went in there knowing his deficiencies and still battled it out every single time. Didn’t duck or dodge anyone that I can think of.

 

Good for him.

Given his mandible, he was never going to be the best, but he gave it an honest go.

It seems like he's been fighting for decades. Good time to go.
