Khan is doing what most americans fighters such as floyd etc failed to do and that is fighting anyone that wants it and not ducking or avoiding people or waiting until they fade to pad the stats.I am more than sure that had mayweather fought all comers he wouldn't have an 0. Pac / Barrera/ Morales/Jmm had losses because they didn't dodge or avoid anyone as well and I respect these guys more than fighters that take a safety first approach. When you look at the best fighters they all have losses and wins against eachother and don't go in to hiding. I think Peterson will go on to be a real good fighter which he already is and if Peterson bradley khan Maidana Rios and co all move to 147 there are some great fights ahead of us.
Alot of people on this forum me included that this was a dangerous fight for Khan so props for him fighting Lamont, he fought a good fight and losted it happens. But he has acted like a cry baby ***** since that night, the ref was against him, and buffer mislead him, omg grow up Amir get back in their and get ur belt back stopping crying about it you lost.
Stop bitching...*****, you haters stay on Floyd's dick...try starting a thread that hasn't been duplicated several million times... Floyd has faced better competition than Prescott and Peterson and never lost, 42 have tried Khan couldn't even get to 30 and has been smashed twice... Cause you lose to inferior competition doesn't make you better...
Khan is a warrior, Floyd is a *****, but a very smart boxer. Khan will learn from these defeats, as he did of Prescott's loss Sometimes losses are better than wins, if it benefits you in the long run.
Thing is Khan talks so much shite its hard to take. He underestimates his opponents and doesn't have a lot of class. He has done well to rebuild himself after Presscott but the arrogance came back with a vengence. Seriously you should have seen the amount of articles on british media before the Peterson fight. openly talking about Mayweather and fighting in England and its exactly the same **** as the Presscott fight. Bad news is it looks like he'll need a reality check every couple of years.
khan needs to believe he won for confidence just as froch is deluded about the dirrell fight and kessler fight he needs to believe he won its a confidence thing.
Thanks for the incredible insight. Yes losses to decent opposition can be overcome. The most common way is called rematching. Khan doesn't do this though.
I agree with what you saying, but Khan does need to improve his overall game, in in fighting is really poor, there is no hiding from that.
And I say the same thing in reguards to Taylor or Williams they fight the best but because they don't always win or get a "gift" people dog them every chance they get :-( Some people think everyone has to look spectacular against every style and opponent just look at the beating Pacquiao is taking as well.
