    Taken from the scene of boxing:

    Conditioning expert Alex Ariza told us “Amir looks great. This kid is ready to fight Its like Manny after he fought Oscar De La Hoya. He had so much confidence when he stepped into the ring” against Ricky “The Hitman” Hatton.
    Ariza noted Amir Khan is much the same after beating Barrera saying “ he’s got this whole different attitude.”
    Ariza revealed that Khan “ dominates Rashad Holloway” the sparring partner of Pacquiao so much that trainer Freddie Roach had to get two new sparring partners including an African boxer with a 14-0 record. He said Holloway weighs 160 and “cannot deal with Amir.” Ariza said that when Khan spars Freddie “ puts him (Holloway) in last and he still can’t deal with him.”

    I think fighters have to earn support. And khan hasn't done much to earn any support imo. I wont be wasting any money on this one.

    He earned our support after the way he came back from the Prescott fight. I am sure most people who support him on here (including me) took great pleasure in his knockout to Prescott.

    He should of earned your support by going to the Olympics at 17 and coming away with a silver medal you ungrateful ****. Of course he deserves our support. Good luck to him and I'm confident he can win.

    Well they are not going to say "Oh, Amir gets hammered in sparring, he can't deal with the guys he's sparring!"

    It matters on the night, in the ring, not in sparring. People try to draw too many conclusions from sparring!

    Not that I disagree with the sentiments Tommy but why should he be "grateful" that Khan won a silver medal , did he give it to the guy ? :think

    A fighter fights for himself (and his family) this idea that Khan (or any other boxer) is fighting for his country or whatever is bunkum of the highest !

    Anyhoo , just something irks me a little otherwise you go get them kid !

    Thats probably the best post i have seen regarding the contempt and **** that Khan gets day in day out here.

    Best thing of all its just like the Eubank scenario, the haters love him.

    Good post.

    Maybe the ungrateful means "we/us/him"

    His reply was to someone that said earned "our" support.


    Or am i reading this wrong ?

    Cheers.

    Rashad Hollaway - record

    14 - 0 - 1 (1KO)

    Sounds like the perfect Khan opponent

    It should have been gold. If it was, then there's a small chance I'd hate him a little less.

    Oh who the **** am I kidding, no there isn't.
