atsch Raw attributes are good, but he has nowhere near the technical ability of Pacquiao. The fight with Barrera was very, very simple: high juard, jab, combo, repeat. He's a talented robot at this stage.
If Khan had a chin he could have been a multi weight class champion but he doesn't so he's not going to end up doing much.
People are talking about Khan as if he was 30 years old.............FFS he is only 22 and still learning why not take a look at Mannys record and boxing style when he was Khans age!!! There was no p4p king in the making when Pac was 22.He had been KO`d twice................Pac would be written off as a crude chinny slugger who cant take a decent shot. I am not saying Khan is going to be a great but I will give him a chance rather than write him off at 22. Khan has a great attitude to boxing, he is willing to work hard to improve the weaknesses in his game.
ok, i will admit khan was hyped up too much and there is question about his chin, bt the guy has talent and if he is trainin with roach and sparring with paquiao he can only get better, jus like u guys doubted paquiao's power and whether he can really hurt hatton, paquaiao proved everyone wrong, amir khan is with the right people to be a good boxer, i jus reckon he was hyped too much and people hate bcause of it plus the pacmans first loss was where he got knocked out like a mother ****er, so stop hatin, lets see wt he's gt in the nxt fight
I think some of the hate for Khan comes from the fact that he a PPV fighter in the UK.............So some do have a point but thats not Khans fault thats more down to Warren and SKY.
Whats the point in hating someone personally because of how their career is (mis) managed? Its a waste of time if you ask me. The PPV thing just made me dislike Warren more, he is responsible for it, not Khan.
We'll see in the next fight if he's got the potential to be the real deal or not. If he handles Kotelnik fairly comfortably then he's for real.
O.K boys let me say this Khan is now moving up to 140, being big frame 5'10 Khan walks around 147, and makes 135 because he is a freak in the gym and not even P4P No.1 Manny can do the fittness training what Khan can do, the boy is a freak of nature. Now when Khan moves to 140 and grows into the weight and IF his chin IMPROVES, mark my words from 140-147 EVERYONE WILL BE IN BIG BIG TROUBLE in the next 2 years. Because if his chin improves with higher weight Roach will turn this kid into next P4P King in a few years, remember Khan is still only 22. SPEED KILLS AND THIS MOTHER****ER IS THE FASTEST
ESB News, section few days ago: Khan' "I've got the best team around me. I've got Freddie Roach and The Wild Card gym. I think I've done my time now and I'm going to win this fight (against Kotelnik in June) hopefully and it will take me to bigger and better things. Freddie said to me that within two years, when I hit my peak at 24, he will have made me a machine. I will be a machine where no-one will touch me and I will be one of the best pound-for-pound fighters in the world." These are big words from Khan, without a doubt. However, after the predictions he has been making just recently, and after he's been proven to have been spot on with them, it would be foolish to dismiss anything Freddie Roach says will happen ever again. And if Roach - one of the finest boxing This content is protected of his era without question - says Khan will be moulded into a pound-for-pound entrant, then I'm not going to argue with him.
he's 22 he's had 22 fights 21 wins he has bags of potential ; yes he has a **** chin but that will improve with experience and lets face it he's going to achieve more than all you boxing experts.
