    He's good.. but his hype suggests him to be better than he is.. His chin didn't get tested against Earl whatsoever.. Until we see him tested again as he was against Limond we won't know..

    Earl is really shot. It was obvious before he even got hit. This fight proved nothing for Amir, and I would like to see him beat a high quality opponent before I can say how good he really is. I think he has talent, but he still has a lot to prove.

    Top class fighter, still new but insanely improving. Has good power, movement and entertaining. Definitely worth watching his fights, future champion.

    Definately NOT overrated. To win a silver at the Olympics when still 17 years old is an astonishing achievement. Punch resistance MAY be suspect but along with his skills that'll just make him even more exciting than if chin was rock solid

    Khan is going to lose some fights at world class level, but he can take some of these guys out just as easily

    He's a very exciting prospect, and well worth the entrance fee

    No matter what Zak man & Amsterdam say, the boy has something & will be a world champ, thats for sure.

    He needs to ditch Harrison as his trainer though, Ingle or an American trainer is the way to go for him, get that diamond polished.

    I dont even know where to start with you you fool. Explain something to me, your boy Mayweather even said that he feels Clazaghe is one of the best in the world and has mad skills.

    I guarantee youve watched 2 fights in your life, being 2 of pbf's this year. **** off off the board noob.

    he'd definitely improve heaps with the quality of sparring partners he could get in the states.

    ridiculously exciting fighter,he won a silver at the olympics because his natural ability is crazy,he's just got to be brought along in the right way.he is overhyped,but when hes achieved the things he has at such a young age its gona happen.even if earl was shot it takes something to take him out in just over a minute.
    and shut up mny mayweather, yea hattons **** because he lost to the best fighter in the world,god mayweather must be awful because he took 10 rounds to ko him!!!! idiot.
    calzaghe,hatton,haye and maybe macc are definatly elite fighters at their weights.maybe macc?????

    If you stuck Khan in with Juan Diaz now sure he would loose, but he would cause Diaz alot of problems as he is very quick, rangey, tall, accuarte and powerful for a Lightweight.

    I am telling it straight right now nobody at Lightweight could of beat Earl in 1 minute nobody at that even mean Pacquiou coming up. o would put him over David Diaz at the moment though.

    A little bit overrated natural talent and overrated boxing abilities. Then there is also this small thing.. HIS CHIN. Khan shouldn't be taken very seriously as a prospect. I'm not from England but I know he gets insane hype there like no other prospect ever. How pathetic is it that Khan is more popular than Calzaghe in the UK? Is that even true?

    I don't know about that

    With casual fans he is popular, because he gets rammed down our throats by the media due to his Olympic heroics. These fans know nothing about the sport

    With proper boxing fans he is not popular for this very reason, Calzaghe is streets ahead, and far more respected at this stage
