amir khan closed his eyes, bent over stood up, and allowed lennox lewis to land the hardest uppercut he could possibly throw without boxing gloves on? do you think that khan would take this shot well?
I think we've all been a bit harsh on the boy. Ok he has an awful set of whiskers but there really isn't anything he can do about it. He showed heart to get up and win from the knockdowns prior to the prescott fight and even then he was up on his feet not long after the 10 count (although in no position to continue).
Same thing that would happen to anyone in the world a "Prime" Lewis hit's flush.... (Even an older announcer Lennox...) K.T.F.O.
I think the reason why people dislike him so much is because he started to believe his own hype and started to come across as a bit arrogant. The reason for this is that unlike the UK's other top fighters, Calzaghe, Hatton, Froch, Haye etc, Khan's not an intelligent guy outside of the ring and therefore started to believed all the hype that Warren was feeding him. Hopefully he's learnt his lesson and will be a bit more humble in future coz he does seem like a nice kid.
