    I want Khan to lose every fight but only because he is complete ass hole and his link with Wank Warren.

    You're right what you're saying but I'm not sure Amir Khan is good enough to win a world title. I'd rather reserve judgement until I've seen him against a few punchers. It looks like he has a glass jaw, which doesn't bode well for the future, plus he still leaves his chin in the air, not much improvement there.

    I'll definately support him against Earl and Thaxton as he has more potential.

    I don't think he's as arrogant as people are making out. Sure there have been some cheeky comments but all boxers make cheeky comments, Hatton is one of the most humble fighters out there, but he did point out that 'we'd seen more action in 4 rounds than in the whole of Mayweather's career!'

    Khan always praises his opponents after the fights, hasn't really trash talked to the extent of say a Carl Froch or Junior Witter, so I wouldn't say he's 'arrogant.' He's always tried to come across as patriotic, even wished the England rugby team and Lewis Hamilton well in his last fight. I don't have a problem with his personality although he doesn't come across as the sharpest tool in the box, nor would I say I'm a 'fan.'

    I think it's a case of let's wait and see what he can do, far too early to be calling him the next British world champion, yet also too early to write him off as a chinny bum.

    I want Earl to win because he is 6-1 and with £10 on if he sparks out khan it will help my hatton vs mayweather beer fund :D

    Props to Khan though, he should win but Earl is no easy fight. Earl never really looked like winning against Katsidis he put up a decent fight.
