    Eddie Futch would not be able to help Khan. His Chin is 100% Glass one of the worst in the History of Boxing.

    I expect Amir to unify the belts like the WBF and IBC. Amir Khan is the truth and you all need to recognise talent and jump on the bandwagon.

    Frank Warren has no big name fighters any more except Matt Skelton. The well known fighters in the UK are doing there own thing like Haye, Calzaghe and Hatton.

    Hatton unified the WBU and IBC once. He beat up Stephen Smith a career lightweight.

    Thats a good point. Not since Hatton have I seen a FW fighter take on a WBU champ. FW still has big influence with the WBO.

    Theres nothing you can do to improve your chin. I even have my doubts about those neck exrecises fighters do in the gym with the weight on the head.

    Great news.

    The best part of this article is Joe Calzaghe's extremely sad comment about RJJ.

    This content is protected


    Only a while ago did this guy openly state in an interview that RJJ is beyond shot which is TRUE and is now changing his mind because he's set to fight him. Damn it's getting easier and easier to dislike this guy. Only now did he decide to travel to America when everyone is beyond shot, if these guys were 1% of what they once were he would still be fighting cans in Wales as he always did. It's all thanks to Lacy and Kessler for going to him or else his record will have a shot Eubank and Reid worth mentioning.

    Ah...... Nope. Khan's skillset was extremely limited, and he was never at any point chalk full of talent. No chance. What he did have was power and speed. That's about it. Technically he was way short on abundance.

    Khan has skill and speed. You can not dissmiss him that easily.
