He has the potential to be a multi-weight champ based onf his talent and skills. His chin is still in question. People saying he's a fraud and a con are a disgrace to Boxing. The guy hasn't fought 1 lightweight since he moved up. He's 23 and is being brought up the right way. People can never look past their hate when it comes to Amir Khan. It's just pure jealousy.
if he manages to take over the 140 lb division that would put him in the top 10 or even 5 best P4P fighters. IF he was to fight bradley and alexander and win those two fights then its assured that Khan is not just a glass jaw hype ***** taking over the 147 and 154 in the future would make him one of the best british fighters in history But its all IFS at the moment, guys like malignaggi and possible matches against marquez and casamayor isnt doing it for him. He needs to fight more often aswell i feel that GBP will protect that mofoka
He needs to be managed carefully, and matched with the top dogs when he's ready only. He's probably the most gifted out of the 140 bunch, and has the potential to be something special. The only thing he needs work on, is defence (because he can't do f*ck all about his chin). The rest will come naturally
why these days does everybody have to be a multiweight division champ why cant u get to a comfortable weight and mop out the division ther will b fitghters come to you anyway i think in 3 yrs andre ward and amir khan will be 1 and 2 p4p
There will come a point, as others have noted, when they cannot face just carefully handpicked feather-fisted fighters. And once Khan faces someone who can crack, it's all over. Glass gets shattered all over that ring again.
lol, its nothing about being a multi-division champ. Its all about getting to certain weightclasses for bigger paydays, cuz thats where the juicy opponents are... Take for instance, Antonio Tarver, former Lt. Hvywt champ. In the Ward/Green post fight, he mentioned he's moving up in weight. He's skippng Cruiserweight altogether cuz he cant land a fight with a key fighter, he's just jumping straight to Heavyweight for the Klitschko's, Haye, and Adamek. Ermmmmm...... good luck with THAT, Tarver
They'll go where the money is. If their body can comfortably move up in weight to get big money fights, they will.
