Anyone else seen the article where Khan says that pound for pound he is way ahead of any other British fighters?
"Pound-for pound, I'm way ahead of all the other British fighters, and I think people know that," "HBO think I'm the best British fighter, the most skilful and the most exciting to watch." "Anybody who knows anything about boxing will go crazy for this fight" "I would have knocked N'dou out in less than five rounds." ""But to be honest with you I'd never want to fight him if Barry Hearn is going to be involved in promoting him" "I fight dangerous opponents (Dimitry Salita..)" Oh Amir atsch
Is it really that bad that it requires a atsch? Haye and Froch are ahead of him in my opinion tho. Salita was a mandatory so putting him up there as an example of a "tough opponent" is just ridiculous. He's obviously fighting the best out there, Look how he struggled against Mckloskey's southpaw style, yet here he is fighting one of the most dangerous southpaws in the business, a guy who not only makes u miss, but makes u pay, and can finish u once he tags u, who can turn your lights out with one shot. Also the way he chased the unification fight with Bradley shows he's after making a name for himself in boxing. Barry Hearn and his son were unprofessional in the whole of the McKloskey promotion. Khan would smack seven shades of crap out of this version of Ndou, and would stop him within 3, let alone 5. The Khan-Judah fight is required viewing, two speedsters, unification on the line, Khans struggle against southpaws, and Judah's ability to make ppl overreach and make them pay, coupled with Khans dodgy chin make this a great fight. And Obviously HBO love him more than any other British fighter, they're showing his fights and letting him headline a show.
Good post, Mugen. Was going to write something similiar, but I'd probably get some tit come say that I'm 'jumping on people'
