"You know what? Amir Khan, without a doubt, is extremely talented. Of course, in my personal opinion, there are reasons why he has been in some of the predicaments that he's been in but those predicaments are easily recognized and they are easily eliminated out of his repertoire. "I think they can be eliminated quite easily. I definitely think that he has the talent and the ability to come back and I don't think it's as bad as some people say," continued Hunter. "People are really quick to put labels on you. I see a kid who takes a pretty damn good punch; it's the decisions after he takes the punch that cost him. It's part of boxing. People don't realize that Ezzard Charles was knocked out seven times. Joe Louis was knocked out. It goes on and on. "It's not a pre-requisite to say that his career is doomed. Because, from the offensive side, Amir Khan is going to be a threat to anybody he's in the ring with, trust me. Saying that, he's got a great of chance to continue his career and fulfil his career just the way he envisions it." ^^ Is Virgil getting paid to say all this or is this all truth?
He's right. Garcia catches him with a few counters as Khan throws from the outside, and Khan just keeps stepping forward until Garcia hurts and drops him. He then runs around the ring and continues to fight.
Amir Khan Confirms his new trainer will be Vigil Hunter which we all knew about, was just waiting for offical confirmation.. Also stated on Soccer Am he will fight against Carlos Molina
You can't teach someone a chin, and you can't teach someone ring IQ. Khan doesn't have either of these attributes and never will.
At 140? kind of dissapointing... seems like lots of people don't want a Khan fight... lol. g-man that has kind of already been covered a million times.
Molina, 26, has had 18 fights since turning professional in 2007, winning 17 and drawing one. He outpointed Marcos Leonardo Jimenez in June to win the vacant WBO Inter-Continental lightweight title but has never gone beyond ten rounds. The Mexican-American has not stopped an opponent in almost three years which suggests Khan's camp have made a sensible decision in avoiding another hard hitter. Khan, who will be based in Oakland, north California while under the tutelage of Hunter, is expected to fight in America, rather than in England. His last fight on home soil was against Paul McCloskey in April 2011.
