I've Gotta Hand it to AK AMIR KING KHAN!

The fight is AGREED by both parties - still not completely sure if it will go through, but if it does - Get your manchild tears out of the way:
'But...he's got a bad chin'
'But..he's so annoying'
'But...he's a Pakistani muslim'
'But Faryal looks like a clown'
'His ADHD is unbearable'

Now, it's time to pay your respects to the King..

Sure, Khan went through a short phase where he avoided a big challenge because he had a weird obsession for a Mayweather fight that didn't come to fruition but you can't fault a man for trying despite the clear losses on his resume and his blatant flaws. Brook did it and no one hates on him. Double standards is real (and I like Brook!).

Get's KO'd, dusts himself off like a man and tries to learn his craft under Virgil Hunter - something especially hard for an ADHD, learning disability-riddled brain like his, so gets extra props.

Get's KO'd again and is still insisting he's ok and wants to continue despite being finished in the ring.

ANY OTHER BOXER WOULD'VE BECOME DISHEARTENED. Khan's persistence won him a super fight with Canelo, Pacquiao and eventually Brook - despite barely being a Top 10 Welterweight! How does Khan really END UP getting fights against some of the biggest names in boxing? If he were like most other boxers, he would've been the shadow of himself after Prescott and retired before his career even started.

He proves that if you chase your dreams, you may take a hit or few but if you're willing to keep going, good things are on the other side. Inspirational.

The Kell Brook will happen anyway, Khan will retire on that fight and don't get me wrong, Khan is certainly past prime anyway so I don't have a horse in the race, I rate Brook and I think he's better than Khan, but you CANNOT fault Khan for going for the Number 1 Welterweight in the world today, Manny Pacquiao (the option of the Brook fight IS STILL THERE).


Screw Eddie Hearn, Screw Kell Brook, Screw Sky Sports, Khan continues to style on these guys and their gross hatred for this man. He's trolling them all. THEY DESERVE IT FOR BEING DUCK ARTISTS THEMSELVES AND HAVING DODGY SCORECARDS ALL THE TIME.

His career has been thrilling right from his debut

A setback like that would've stolen your soul, but Amir proves to YOU that you can take a big hit and still fight for your dreams if this is where your life really lies. You just can't knock the guy. He's taking these fights knowing this could happen, it's very high risk.

 

Floyd Mayweather sounded really defensive and pretty jealous for some reason once Marcos Villegas dropped the bomb at Mayweather's birthday bash:

I think there's truth to that, BUT with every fighter THERE ARE LIMITS, especially if you've been knocked out before.
You need to give Khan props for actually KEEPING MOVING FORWARD to be able to get himself in a position to stay as a Top 10 Welterweight in the first place, TO EVEN BE CONSIDERED for these kinds of fights.

 

It's not an easy fight for Khan because of Khan's ability AND Pac has been semi-shot for a while now. Pac may still get his first KO since 2009, though. Pac doesn't need to fight anyone, he's proven himself as one of the GOATs of boxing.

 

But it's still a good fight.
Pac is still the number 1 in the division for going on to beat Bradley AND Vargas.
Pac was going to fight Jeff Horn, this is not even about 'the best fighting the best'. Khan is still a good fighter who provides threats of his own. They've sparred a lot before so they know a lot about eachother.
If shot Pac wins this, he does get credit for this victory whereas Jeff Horn is just a flat out, no namer.
