Lets call a spade a ****in spade, this Countdown is embarassing. Come home from work, curious to see how they'l promote this farce and here is what im greated with! Khan makes this quote basically word for word 'all my opponents come in to the fights in top shape, this is like a world title shot for them, they know if they beat Amir Khan that.....' *then i tuned out mentally cause i was thinking 'what a ****ing arsehole' What gives him the right to say that? Whats with the 3rd party ****? Shows him on ***** street against Limond then! Ya, some fighter! Its blows up Presscot to be something special then! Then Alex Arthur talks about how hes one of the top super featherweights out there and has some belts Hatton and Calzaghe dont! Before showing Steve Foster putting him through the ropes!atsch Dont get mad Dunky please !!:thumbsup Lastly but not leastly we have wank head Harrison and how he 'excites' the fans and has all the 'ability in the world just doesnt always show it' What is Jim Watt getting paid to talk such dung? I used to like him but he's gone arseways ever since he got caught up in Hatton mania last December I dont know what i expected, its just so wrong, this whole thing, even if it was on regular Sky its still wrong. Pure brainwash tactics! Khans now talking about himself the way Hatton does, its boring already after hearing it once.... EVERYONE knows that if he wasn't Asian he wouldnt be anywhere and thats the harsh reality, like that comment or not. What about DeGaule? Like him of not he won Gold....not Silver.... Have i missed something, please tell me. In my opinion this is wrong on is many different levels! Anyone see this program yet? Discuss?
I don't understand why people have such a problem with talking in third person. It's right to do so, sometimes. When you overuse it like Bernard Hopkins, yeah, that's arrogant as **** and more importantly, wrong, but what Khan said is proper English. And I'd love to see Khan get KOed, but you can't have a go at him all the time.
I refuse to watch it as I know what it will be like I think Sky are a disgrace and their boxing coverage gets worse by the day.
They say what they are told to say, or they are not asked to go back. Remember they don't do it for free!
To be fair, Khan hasn't lost yet. If he beats Breidis he would surprise me. He's better than Arthur and Cooke. Beating and fighting Khan is like winning the jackpot, Khan is a big seller. He probably earns far more than most world champions.
Khan doesn't care what you and I think. Basically he's very marketable. He wins if people like him, because people tune in to see him win. He also wins if people hate him, because people want to see him lose. If these forums had no mention of his fight coming up then it would be a different story. Everyone knows when Khan is fighting, thats the secret, no-one knows who Alex Arthur or Nicky Cooke are outside of die hard boxing thats for sure.
Can't be ****ed with it if I'm being honest. I'll check to see if Khan wins or gets startched, but other than that I'd rather watch re runs of Bob Ross.
Not even the Commonwealth belt Flint('cos Prescott's Colombian), he's defending the WBO inter-bull**** title. What a joke atsch
it is a joke. the british empire couldn't colonise a poor little south american country like columbia? :-(
