    IS he a world champion?
    Is he p4p?
    What is he?

    He's not even relevant he isn't a world champ and hasn't been for a long time, I don't know why people talk about him so much, he went to the World championships in Quatar and they introduced him like hes some sort of superstar ATG.. it's laughable...

    I wouldn't even put the guy top 10 p4p in the UK...
    I've always scratched my head as to why he is is Mr celebrity... when his ability and achievements don't match his level of fame

    yeah i suppose Olympic Silver and a World title in the pro's is amounting to nothing.

    He would much rather be like you, smoking rollies and sharing a room with his brother.

    A professional boxer who was a highly successful amateur at a very young age who went on to win a world title as a pro and has fought at world level for a very long time. As for you, you are just a pathetic little boy who has had no success in their own life so you try and ridicule those who have, sad.

    I don't have a brother. The likes of Gavin Rees and Nicky Cook were world champions, and Fred Evans was Olympic Silver medalist.. but I don't read you or anyone else talking about or praising them.

    A 'highly succesful' amateur is more a guy who wins GOLD medals you know.. the likes of Lomachenko, Rigondeaux, Usyk,Mekhonstev

    Gavin Rees, Stuart Hall, Nicky Cook won world titles. Enzo Maccirinelli, Nathan Cleverly, and Junior Witter won world titles and had similar short forgettable reigns as Khan. Yet I don't read you talking about them or praising them

    Fought at world level for a long time? Lol his short reign beating bums like Mccloskey and Salita ended a long time ago in embarrassing fashion and hes cheery picked his whole career.. bums, non punchers, and past it names.

    You know nothing about me... but I know you waste your life boring people to sleep on here and are scared to admit your a Muslim who is only fanatical about Khan cause hes the same religion as you.

    In this age of boxing.. being a'world champion' doesn't mean much when theres about 18 weight dicisions and 4 or 5 world champs in every division. Khan had a poxy short blink and you'll miss it reign and you expect me to lay out the red carpet for him lol. Get real. Hes had small pockets of success but overall I wouldn't call him a successful boxer as hes lost 3 times to big underdogs 2 of those in highly embarrassing fashion, struggled in many other fights, could have had 5 or 6 losses on his record and he still to this day has never fought a A level Opponent. Hes one loss away from being Audley Harrison level of ridicule.

    Khan has no world title
    he brings nothing to the table
    he has no p4p ranking
    all he has is celebrity status and fame

    Even the biggest Khan fan should be able to admit that fame is undeserved.. and is mostly because of race/religion. Calzaghe and Froch ate All tome British greats who shouldn't even be spoke about in the same breath as Khan yet... Khan is more well known/ famous than them!!!! Its ridiculous

    What is Khan? He's a B-level fighter who is completely delusional about how good he really is.

    Because he is the same religion as me? Well that isn't the case as I do not follow any religion, I am British born, every member of family is British up to my great grandfather who happens to be Irish, I mean I don't know if you realise but Khan isn't that. I am not shallow enough to follow someone because of their race or religion, why does it matter? Maybe it does to you and that's why you hate him but you are just enough alt that comes on here with what I am assuming will be racist and ridiculous views.

    Yeah I know a highly successful amateur does that, however he did what he did at a very young age and didn't stick about in the amateurs for a long time like those guys did, so it would have been impossible to do what those guys did as an amateur.

    Khan isn't British??! that's news to me.... he was born and raised in Britain, seems like YOU are the racist one!!! Haha

    I just don't rate him as a fighter, and think his high profile doesn't match his abilty/achievements and there is other british fighters more worthy of his fame..
