If it happens..

If we're a little less restrictive guys like Henry Armstrong, Eusebio Pedroza, Alexis Arguello and Frankie Randall all rebounded from early career KO's to lesser opposition to have very distinguished careers. I'm sure I could think of more.

 

Will now Khan -MAB fight be for the WBO vacant title now that Nate has won? MAB is ranked 1 by the WBO.

 

Possibly.... especially considering the sway Warren holds with the WBO. Really Campbell should meet Barrera for the vacant title.

 

Campbell said after the fight that he's moving up to light welter.

 

It'll be nice to see Barrera crowned a World Champion again...even if it is just the WBO belt:smooch

 

Wow this is crazy ****

 

Pedroza is a good example.:good It was a Columbian that got the KO too, he did have a very good career after those early losses. I wouldn't put Arguello or Armstrong in the same boat though (add Hopkins to that list), losing your pro debut is a different matter (especially when Arguello was 16 and Armstrong was 19). The thing with Khan is that it was a devastating loss when he was already starting to establish himself, in the next few fights he would probably have began making the transition between commonwealth/Euro to world level - the loss came at the wrong time, or at least it seemed like it did (Warren appears more happy to take a risk now possibly?).

 

damn frank must of paid nate some big bucks to not make weight

 

Yeah, you should listen to this boxing "expert". He who describes the linear champ at 140 as a "nearly man", the insight is incredible.

 

Yeah very true...

 

Having failed to make the weight for last nights fight?

 

You usually make sense, where the **** u get this shite from ? Prescotts a fighter doing it the hard way/right way.Not some silver spoon tool like khan who's been found out pretty quick.Never seen a bigger hype job

 

Cards on the table, and I really wish I had had the courage to show them earlier.

This is just pure ****ing hate, and to be honest i've had enough of this shite. Judge Khan the same way as you would any other up and coming fighter at the weight, forget what he says and just judge the lad by his performances. There are not many prospects who after their 4th fight have taken on opponents all with half decent winning records, the lack of any recognition is pathetic. To be honest the level of hate shown on here and elsewhere goes beyond dislike for the kid because of his mouth, its really distasteful and pretty obvious. He is still getting **** for having the temerity to take on a fighter like Barerra in his 21st fight, get a grip.

Jeff, careful matchmaking my ****, you should know better, who the **** were you fighting in your 13th contest, i'd say but I don't want to embarrass you...Khan took on Limond with a 28-1 record in his 13th pro fight, an all time great like Duran was scuffing around fighting a 12-19 in his...give the bloke some ****ing breathing space.

 

Well said mate.....Completely pathetic the **** Khan gets :-(

For a prospect he has been moved on quickly in comparison to the other prospects out there......and he's facing an ATG Mexican Warrior after being brutally KTFO 2 fights ago.

I give him massive credit........and the rest of the sorry ass haters should aswell

 

Icemax I wasn't an Olympian, just some bloke who did a little boxing. Khans opponents have been largely credible save for the odd no mark. However, he is been projected as the uks answer to floyd mayweather in one breath but avoiding anything that looks like a 50-50 match up. Fighting barrera is exciting but it could turn out to be no more then a clever piece of matchmaking. Khan is lucky enough to have two men in his weight division in the uk who can provide him with the credability he desires- the sooner his handlers realize this the sooner we can all start enjoying his career!
