    I've seen it before.

    So he said, and I quote, "There's so many more ingredients, that a professional needs that an amature doesn't need, like heart, courage, a good chin I mean thats the question right now about Amir Khan, can he take a punch? I mean he was struggling earlier on in his career against Limmond, he's a non puncher, he got caught and he went down, he shouldn't have been on the floor early"

    He didn't say he had no heart, are you ****ing deaf? The only thing he questioned was his Amirs chin, the other comments were comparing AMATURES TO PROS.

    Do you think, maybe, we over analyse this vacuous nonsense?

    Obviously, a few harmless ill timed tweets.

    1st off, Froch did it with a pinch of salt and a degree of respect, isn't that the interview where Froch ends with class, something like:

    "Yes definitely, because it was a brutal loss. I admit that the people he's come back against have not been top fighters, but they are still semi decent for him to fight. I dont visualise him as a world champion yet though because he's fought nobody world class yet.

    But when you talk about the word 'respect' - In boxing, respect is earned and not handed out. If Amir is fighting the top 5 of his division and winning then he deserves plenty of credit and we shall wait and see. That goes for any belt holder.

    Without sounding hollow - I wish him all the best and hope he does the bizz. Moving up in weight may help his punch resistance and having Freddie Roach in his corner will do him no harm.

    And i'll be the first to give him a high five if he does.":deal

    Secondly, what did you mean 'you people'?

    Still not quite as bad as some of Andre Berto's recently. I do wish Amir would have thought this through before doing that because he won't get many friends with actions like this that's for sure.

    What do you mean "pinch of salt"? Is that how you justify his comments while criticizing Khan? This is what I mean. That guy can talk all the **** he wants and people say stuff like that or "it's witty", "it's just his dry humour" etc.

    Of course he said that little peice at the end there to stop himself sounding bitter and jealous but I see through it. It's just like I said, when females talk about another female they don't like but at the end say "but bless her" because they don't want to be seen as a *****.

    By "you people", I mean all you people who are criticizing Khan for these comments, which are childish, but no worse than what Froch says about Khan and Calzaghe, or what Haye says about the Klitschkos. If anything, Khan is more justified in making these comments as he's responding to, rather than starting the verbal jabs. I'm not a Khan fan but I have defended him a few times on this forum from what I see as hypocrisy.

    Good spin, you should become a politician, using choice excerpts with extreme precision. Froch has said plenty of worse things about Khan, also Calzaghe, than the things you mentioned in your post. But I'll leave you to feel mortified over Khan 'tweets'.

    No, his quote at the end let the public AND Khan know exactly where he stood, that there is an element of respect there.

    Where's Khans element of respect? (have his PR people got to him yet?):deal

    That tweeting **** is BS, he shouldn't be tweeting, and use the half a brain he has, not to go down to the level of Froch, and diss your fellow Britains.
