    I thought Khan was trying to break Prince Naz' youngest british world champ record - not his driving!

    :good

    I think opinion of him will hopefully change when he HAS to step up and fight the likes of Juan Diaz, Nate Cambell and the other top contenders. My personal dis like of him is down to the fact a lot of fuss has been made about a guy who as got talent but has not ventered into an hard match up.

    to me its all about chin....if his chin was proven, every brit on here would be cupping his balls.

    cause its dodgy or at least unknown, no one wants to jump fully on the bandwagon (me included) in case they lose face.

    thats why we are clamouring for him to fight a world champ in his next fight, when most 21 y o dont fight anybody for ages. i admit the hype get it the way, but if you ignore the hype, just dont listen to the press releases etc...then he is coming on pretty normally.

    older prospects murray etc havent fought khan's level of comp yet. He will eventually get to that level, and then we will see.

    I think he has the perfect opportunity with his size strength and amateur background to do well. It may only be his chin that lets him down.
