As it is, Khan hasn't made any inprint on the sport whatsoever, and has won virtually nothing. Winning a British title would change this - I agree with Henry Cooper, that a guy shouldn't be able to get a world shot without proving themselves as the best within their own country.
It wouldn't have taken a genius to have gone down the gym to see if they could find him - and perhaps Harrison switches his phone off when working with his fighters......
Maybe they did not want to find him. Oli should have invested in a blutooth headset and looked like one of those guys out of Cyborg. We all know there is more to this then Khan and co are letting out. Shah phones Oli....Oli does not answer / return the calls and hey presto they dump Oli. Sounds like pure b/s. Why was Shah phoning Oli ? What did he want to discuss ? Was he going to turn Oli into a Mick Jelley type figure in team Khan by getting him a ticket to every Khan fight ? Powell is taking Khan no where fast, all team khan do is talk b/s about an american trainer, well if that is the plan then they should do it instead of pissing about with Powell. Khan could be a WBU champ this time next month with proper training.
Have to say before this thread I couldn't have give 2 tweaks on a badgers nudger why they'd split, now i'm like some Trisha watching housewife, irritably waiting for her latest issue of "Celebrity slagging matches" to come through the letter box!!!
Have to be honest I'm usually sceptical about posters (depends who it is of course) claiming they have inside info on the forum and then don't back it up - although it is perfectly understandable why in some instances. I agree the onus isn't on anyone to spill the beans via PM hence personally I have NOT requested one about the Khan/Harrison split. In fairness though, I think some of the expectation in this case could stem from the 'I know something you don't know' thread when forum users were PM'ed with info on the basis it remained secret. I received a message without even asking!
Khan vs McAllister - really gets you salivating. Well I suppose with Hatton ducking him, someone will have to step up to the plate.
to continue the theme He said he would beat Pacquiao who said he would beat Hatton who said he would beat Mayweather who did beat De La Hoya who said he would beat Trinidad who said he would beat RJJ who beat John Ruiz who beat Evander Holyfield who beat Mike Tyson who beat Larry Holmes who beat Muhammad Ali :rofl Very twisted and uses past and future tenses
I only post on the ESB brit forum and have no idea what you mean about this 'Spud'. Sorry. Agree with the majority of your comments about Khan in this and other threads. Real shame about the whole Harrison situation. Khan let himself down badly by the way he responded when falling for Gomez' ruse about being trained by him - thought his comments discrediting Harrisons reputation were a very poor reflection on him.
Finished work now so I can respond properly. Better then what, finding your jibes a tad unfair and your recent posts a bit strange? Simple, don't make sly digs then. What did you want from me a rhyming verse about forgiveness? This part I especially like... It must be my womanising nature atsch Or maybe its just because I find you to be strangely knowledgable about boxing for a female and enjoyed conversing with you on here. Don't really understand what your insinuating by that. Actually - no I don't... feel free to enlighten me though.
Aimed at me again? Have I said one thing on this forum that hasn't come into fruition? I pm'd you about the Gomez-Khan fight because you guessed what I was talking about on the thread or commented about it. Its hardly a big deal is it? I'll make sure I avoid PM'ing you in future. :bart
You say whatever you want to now your retired Jeff. If someone doesn't like it, unless it's a personal friend of yours, tell them to **** off
Yes then they never tell you another thing and you are out the loop. I agree with the approach JT has taken.
No offence but I find some of your post bordering on the sarcastic and uncalled for. For someone who has enjoyed conversing with me on and off board I find it odd you choose to openly criticise me in the manner you are doing on the forum. Its seems I have gone from being the "fairest poster on here" in your estimation to being accused of making unfair jibes, sly digs and strange posts. Lets get something straight, I WAS NOT making a sly dig at you - thats your interpretation. It is not my nature to insult other posters. With everything that is said on the forum I'm surprised its my posts you are taking issue with and seem particularly sensitive about. Because I don't like upsetting anyone (albeit unintentional) I apologised. As I've already explained, my initial post in this thread wasn't even addressing you specifically but YOU chose to respond to it. I wasn't insinuating anything about your PM's. Just making the point that I felt it may have been more appropriate if you could have raised this with me off board as you often have done in relation to other things. If you genuinely don't realise why I find all this disappointing then I've really misjudged you. If thats the case then its my mistake but understandable in the circumstances I think.
No. The post in question wasn't aimed at you. I was responding to another poster. Not PM'ing me in future is probably for the best. I tend to think they have contributed to this situation.
