    A lot of the stick Khan gets comes from the hype that's surrounded him since he turned pro. But, given his amateur success, his youth and marketability, there was no way he was going to start off down the bill fighting 4x2s at Warrington Leisure Centre and work his way up from there.

    I'm sure Froch will give Khan his dues once he starts taking on World class opposition.
    Khans career of late seems so manufactured and Froch is just echoing what the normal fan thinks.

    I actually couldn't give a **** about what they say to eachother, as long as they put England on the map and fight the top fighter's, I'll let Kahn off at the moment as he's only 22 and still got a hell a lot of years left.

    Lol.
    He lost the interview as soon as he said "what you mean king khan".

    From there on in, I knew what to expect. Have a look at what David Haye's been saying Frochy. He says he's telling it like it is, but Haye was equaly critical of the Prescott loss by saying that it would be difficult to come back from and Amir needed to completely change his set up. Now Khan has done so, Haye has, correctly so, said congratulations. Take note Carl. And this is why Haye is a superstar and you're still a virtual unknown (and bitter about it).

    Did you even read my post? Are you remotely familiar with both fighters?

    I very clearly said that age was irrelevant, as it doesn't matter when either become successfull, it's what they do to get there. Froch has always tried to fight the best. Khan hasn't fought the best at any point of his career.

    And yet both claim to be real world champs. Froch has fought his way to the top. Kahn never fought the British Champ, never fought the Euro champ, avoided world clas at LW and fought by his own admission the worst world champ at LWW. PLEASE NOTE I AM NOT SAYING THAT KHAN WOULDN'T BEAT MURRAY ET AL, JUST POINTING OUT HE AVOIDED THEM.

    I never said anything about Khan not being able to eclipse Froch's acheivments in the future (he prob will unless Froch wins the super 6) I just pointed out who was in a position to comment on the other.

    You're either world class (and have proven it) or you're not. If Khans claims to being world class are Kotelnik and Salita............well do you think that proves that he is?

    Best of luck to the kid, but seeing is believing and I'm withholding the nut hugging till he does something. :good

    Froch always comes across like a big headed twat.... whatever he says, he wish he did have it "easy" like Khan. With regards to Prescott fight, Khan did well to get off the canvas and get knocked down again. He had a warriors heart. He has learnt much better skills than Froch. He was knocked down and outclassed by Taylor.... the one thin g i will give froch is that since becoming champion he has taken on hard fights....

    On a side note: Salita pointy chin theory doesn't hold up with granite chinned froch

    Did he avoid them or did thaxton and Murray price themselves out of fights?

    Murray. Witter, Froch.... All Hennesey fighters, all love calliong out people way bigger than them.

    People keep calling keep Amir arrogant, atleast he's not claiming he'd knock out Hagler, Hearns, Leonard, Benn, Eubank, Calzxaghe and Collins lol. What the hell is this all about???

    Fair point about them pricing themselves out of fights, but he still has never fought the best at any level he has been at. It's a fact.

    And I agree with Redondo, Khan has heart, big style.

    Only 22

    - No he is 23 actually.

    ODH was a 2 time ring magazine champ of the year and a 3-weight world champion when he was 22 so the age bizz is a load of baloney

    watch him vacate the WBA strap because 26ko from 27 wins maidana is up next.

    kahn's downfall is going to be absolutely fookin spectacular. he will be pumped into the american market by GBP and then the first big chance he gets on HBO against a man with a dig, he will be destroyed.

    Yea but when do you see Khan "hanging around with pop stars" and into this whole "celeb culture" lol - i hardly ever see him in any papers, or anything like that - most celebrity's like Froch is banging on about are seen and snapped coming out of clubs, lavishing around thinking they special !! Or "falling out of china whites with there man bags" as he says..

    Basically Froch is trying to compare his lifestyle to Khans, making Khan out to be something he isn't, and trying to grab the British public's attention by saying hes "working class" and he likes to wind down by doing a bit of work on his house" etc... and having a laugh with his close mates hes known all his life...

    Fair play to Froch if that's what he likes doing !! I ain't got no problem with him for dong it - but whys he having a go at Khan for being a young lad who probably likes the glitz and glamor of life, that's what most youngsters like these days !! Meeting new people, traveling the world, enjoying your youth and having a laugh ?

    Froch cant really bring his and Khans lifestyle into the equation like hes the better man coz hes Humble and all this other bull**** hes on about ....

    Hes 32 at the end of the day, that's the way he should be, hes enjoyed his life as a youngster, hes getting on now a days, and probably sees through all the hype and drama of celebrity's !!

    But I'd bet my house he'd be living and doing the same thing Khan is if he was in Khans position 10 years ago !! why wouldn't he?? he'd be classed as a **** if he didn't....

    And as for me saying "why would you be proud of being working class", was just a reaction to Froch's context of putting it, and the way he said it... i just see it as ironic for him to be saying it, because before he got the WBC he was like a desperate man, just waiting in anticipation to get a shot at it... so he can be a "world wide superstar" lmao - He just says whatever he feels like... like the other month before the Direll fight, comparing himself and his boxing ability to Sugar Ray Leonard, Floyd Mayweather Jr and other great fighters ........ hes a muppet.. hes known for being a disrespectful **** as well, always slagging calzaghe off and stuff - hes an idiot !!

    Hes a poor boxer as well, even everyone in this "British Forum" agrees that Dirrell basically boxed his head off

    CityofGod, your the biggest Froch fan alive man - you would say anything in defense of Froch lol

    Froch is SHYTE !! He got Embarrassed and outclassed by Taylor for 3 qaurters of the fight, and got embarrassed even harder by Dirrell, basically getting his head boxed off by a young inexperienced pro...... He got exposed, and still SOME people on here love the bloke???

    Even though he ain't officially lost yet, all this hype and **** hes been saying, like hes up there with the Greats like "Sugar Ray Leonard, Floyd Mayweather Jr, Marvin Hagler" and "how he destroys opponents" and hes such a "dangerous puncher" lol......... the American and World wide population probably don't rate him 1 bit after his recent performances, hes a useless arrogant bum who's stuck up his own ass...

    Amir Khan might get chinned along the lines, but at least he can come back and destroy other fighters !! Hes got talent and skillz, that will never change, and there are a LOT of decent respectable fighters out there he can outclass and shine upon, showing the world his attractive style !! Khan will always have fans, coz hes a nice lad, has a decent attitude, and is admirable, so if he does fail, people will still be behind him coz hes a charming kid....

    When Froch finally looses, hes just gonna be forgotten.... end of story !! no1 will give a **** about him.....
