    :think

    Great physical attributes, primarily outstanding speed, but without the brain to properly harnass these strengths in an effective manor. When faced with a well schooled left back/fighter their lack of understanding is exposed

    100% correct comparison. Both had lots of promise very young but never developed beyond the core attributes that brought them to public attention (speed and marketability). Both over-managed and not sufficiently humble to take a step back and relearn technique

    Khan is more skilled at boxing than Theo is at football.

    Still like English footballers British boxers generally lack world class technique

    Amir Khan has been world champion...

    Theo Walcott is a overpaid ******.
