    i read this on another from the sky report about khans camp in hollywood.

    i can actually believe this. technically he is very gifted (not defensively tho) he can jab, move and has the fastest hands the pacman has ever seen on a lightweight as pacman has said himself.

    they spar together and becos khan is a decent sprinter himself they run the hills together.

    do you think he can become champ again with the advice and actual sparring with the pacman?
    i think theres a good chance but it depends if the ko loss has affected him mentally.

    Yeah, I definitely would like to see a video of them sparring. Hopefully we'll get to see a video before the fight.

    If it was a report by skysports then i wouldn't really believe it. Remember they have to hype him up as they have him signed on as a paper view attraction

    His chin is pure glass, so unless his defense gets real tight, he's gonna get KTFO again when he meets someone who can punch.

    Most over rated fighter britain has produced. Certainly in my lifetime. Im a Brit myslef and love to see our sports stars do well but as soon as i saw him in the olympics i thought this guy was just another over hyped kid with journey man talent. I hope he proves me wrong and does well but he has a hell of a lot to learn. He's only 21 so best of luck to him.

    Hyped yes. Journeyman? Certainly not. Khan is trying to run before he can walk. You cant have a hunger when your already a millionaire and top billing on PPV. Thats completely the wrong way to bring up a fighter. Boxing is more a business now and thats where Khan and Audley went wrong.
