    Both accomplished Olympians.

    Both had excellent skills, power

    Both chinny as hell

    I also think Khan will win a world title but will not hold it for very long (well he might, hes got Frank Warren...u saw how Calzaghe managed to rack up defences against muppets),


    Poor Reid was give Trinidad...ROFL....cant see that happening for Khan

    **** yer. Trinidad couldn't just punch, he wrecked careers.

    The next time Khan faces someone who isn't a BLOWN UP FEATHERWEIGHT, a SHOT FIGHTER or who generally isn't terrible he will be exposed. Again.

    Only against super-feathers, who always said his punches had no power, plenty of pre-mature and dodgy stoppages there aswell. IF he actually planted his feet he could have pop, but that would greatly reduce his much touted "speed".

    Hence why I call him one-dimensional. Can't be a one trick pony like that on the big stage, gotta be able to grind it out on the inside and actually beat your opponent down.

    of course khan has power, i think its silly to suggest he has wrecking ball power, but he has decent enough power to gain respect and dish it out

    Actually, David Reid's problem stemmed from his droopy eyelid which is why he retired. As far as I know, Amir Khan doesn't have a gammy eye.

    No he just has the worst Glass Jaw in the sport. :lol::rofl

    Do you think Khan would last as long against a prime Tito as Reid did?

    No way in hell. He would get brutally KOed in 40 seconds.

    Plus he took on Tito too early and wasn't ready for him yet. He was never the same after that fight.
