    Every time Khan faces an opponent, you can be sure that opponent is going to train harder than ever simply because they are facing Amir Khan.

    This is always a big possibility but at the same time some come to lose.

    Aye, I feel for the guy, it must be hard waking up with all that money in the bank for doing absolutly feck all. He's made more money that most pros could ever dream of, and he's done squat for it, pretty much like big Audley. I personally think the worst thing you can do with a young fighter is giving him the dough up front, what's the point in that? The burning desire to make it cant be the same, no way. I'll take his worries off him any day of the week, poor wee Amir.

    Communists value their legacy more than they do for an extra few million once they are already set for life of luxury. Capitalist *******s are the only flaw with communism, preventing the dream of global communism (the only real kind) from becoming a reality.

    Communists love microwave ovens and dry cleaning just as much as their pampered, debauched capitalist counterparts.

    They realise gold plated washing machines are something of a waste though.

    The only reason they'd stay in Britain Is to defend us.

    If they were sent abroad for battle, they could fall Into American hands.
