Give the kid some credit, he did exactly what he was supposed to do.
I thought he looked good tonight too. Just sick of hearing how amazing this kid is. There's a lot of decent fights for him to be made before he takes over the world
To be honest the only person who says Amir is amazing is Barry McGuigan and Amir himself ::**
If you come on these boards or any boxing chat sites all you get is Amir hate and that to me is a whole lot more boring.
He got a silver at the Olympics at 17 years old whilst being our sole boxing representative. That's why he's got so much attention. But just because people have high hopes and expectations for him doesn't mean that he deserves to get knocked like he does. In our current climate of East-West hostilities and general mutual mistrust with the Arab world Amir is a fantastic uinfying force and a great role model, not just for kids in general but for British Muslim kids in particular.
I'm a 100% fan of the kid. I know he has flaws and I too can see him getting sparked by a big puncher if they push him too soon. However where I differ from the haters is that I won't be coming on here shouting 'I F****** told you!!!!!!!!' like he was a fake all along and deserved to be exposed.
He's the greatest young talent that us Brits have in boxing, he's also a nice down to earth kid who just tries to give 100% in everything he does.
Sorry but in my humble hobbity opinion anybody who is just waiting for him to fail so they can glory in his exposure as a top class fighter is just a kunt >:mad
bilbo shut up! You of all people is trying to preach? Gimmie a F****** break. You knock fighters as much as anybody here. Now you trying come down on people for doing the same to A Mere Con. Oh the hypocrisy..
I'm just getting behind Britain's number 1 talent buddy. I'm happy to ride this train alone if needs be. That way I get a nice roomy carriage all to myself and a nice comfy seat by the window.
And just for the record I ALWAYS credit a fighter with a good win, whether I'm a fan or not. If you want you can send JT Rock to scuttle back and look through all my previous postings and find me a fighter whom I didn't credit on a fine win ;)
How is Audley Harrison doing?

Re: Amir Khan vs. Scott Lawton this weekend.
Khan fought a good fight and made Lawton look worse than he is. Khans hand speed was again very impressive and tactically he boxed smart.
In the afterfight interview Lawton said that Khan hit harder than he thought and that Khan would beat Jonathan Thaxton.
Nice finish but Khan needs to face someone who has some power as Lawton only had 4 stoppages in 20 wins.

My homie Rob. What's up? How you been? Answer this question for me if you can. When is Con going to step up the competition level? What are they hiding? Besides a weak chin that is.

He won the CommonWealth title in his 13th fight, he hasn't even turned 21 years old yet. He's ahead of 99% of all other boxers his age in the professional ranks. It's not like he's Roman Greenberg just having endless pointless fights against journeyman.
If he fights Earl next, whose last fight was for a world title against Michael Katsidis I'd say they are moving him along pretty quickly.

Earl is made for Con. Another weak puncher. Except for that one hook that dropped Katsidis, Earl got his fucking ass kicked bad. I can't see Earl giving Con any trouble. And I see it as a small step up. Very small.

Alright Bleed,
Things are good apart from looking for a stream for the Pacman fight.
Khan is big money for Frank Warren and Warren is gonna keep Khan in cotton wool. They said he struggled to make weight for this fight and I'm pretty sure that old Frank will give Khan a WBA Super Lightweight titleshot against his other fighter Gavin Rees.
Rees is only really a lightweight, is short and has no power but he has a 'World' title. I'd bet money that Rees vs Khan will happen next year.

If they had an organization and handed out WBO,WBA,IBF, and WBC belts for pissing people off and getting under people's skin, VD would be the undisputed, hands down champion of the world. Damn you got some good one-liners :lolhaha:

Re: Amir Khan vs. Scott Lawton this weekend.
Honestly, you guys are like vultures on here. I dont understand all the hate towards Amir kahn and can i sense a hint of racism in your comments. Now lets look at the facts, Amir is a 20YR OLD BOY who just knocked out a 31yr seasoned pro. Now youre all saying "who the hell is Lawton" well Lawton is the same guy who took your Hero Thaxton to the 7th round and had to retire because of a cut eye, if it wasnt for the cut eye i could see the fight going the full 12. Now im not saying Thaxton struggled with this guy but as a comparison in the 2 fights Amir was way more impressive and totally dominated this guy unlike Tahxton. Even lawton himself said at the end of the fight that Amir would beat Thaxton and as he has fought both of them ill take his opinion over you "armchair judges" on here.
I dont know what you expect from this kid after his 14th fight, and i know Amir talks big with his "i wanna be world champion before im 21" but thats just him being enthusiastic and without enthusiasm where would we all be???? Hes a 20yr old kid with the dream of being world champ which every fighter probably went through at that age, so let it be.
Another talking point is Amir's chin which seems to be the point of most of your hatred towards Khan. For gods sake did you see where khan got hit and how he got hit?? I know willie limmond CANT punch for shit but if any fighter is cought on the TEMPLE its is going to scramble his senses. After watching the replays today Amir didnt get hit by 1 punch but 5-6 FLUSH punches after the 1 to the temple. Many less fighters would not have recovered from that and would be out of there, so you cant say he hasnt got a chin. I think it looked far worse than it actully was because of his balance, if he trully was badly hurt you would have seen it in the next round but his legs looked strong and came back to knock the chap out after recovering his senses. (but the jury is still out on that point)
Finally to be perfectly honest you guys on here prabably wouldnt be happy if they put Kahn in with a prime Mike Tyson for his next opponent, you would come up with some bogus escuses as all haters do. Now please just support this emerging BRITISH talent with brown skin (which i know many you find hard to deal with) as he is one of the most exciting fighters to come out of Britain for a long time (ex Hatton, calzag etc). In my honest opinion i can see khan beating Thaxton easily maybe in 2 fights time and can see him going on to be a world champion one day if he is brought along steadily.

You need to read the thread again pal. The only person trying to bring skin colour into the topic is you with this shit...."Now please just support this emerging BRITISH talent with brown skin (which i know many you find hard to deal with)"
If you read the thread you will get your answer why people are not sold on the lad. All boxers his age have ambition but are not lucky enough to get the type of exposure he gets. I don't think he is half as good as the media, Amir himself and the majority of the British public thinks he is.
I must be a racist ::**

Actually its
A) Because of his white promoter
B) Because of his spoon fed opponents

Re: Amir Khan vs. Scott Lawton this weekend.
I'm not certainly not playing the race card but i will never understand the amount of hate that Khan gets.You got ppl who cant wait to see him get KO'd just to see the reaction of his family!!
Khan is being stepped up nicely and since he will be facing Earl next so I really cant understand why ppl are complaining about the level of opposition at this stage of his career!!

Thanks, thats exactly my point. Not all BRITISH boxers are lucky enough to get the coverage Amir does, so when a talent comes along like Amir who is lucky enough to get media exposure we shouldbe supporting him all the way. I cant remember the last time a BRITISH fighter had so much media coverage like Amir does, so shouldnt we as a nation be fully behind to show the rest of the world we have some world class boxing talents?? Forgods sake look how long its taken ricky hatton, calzaghe to be recognized as genuine p4p fighters as they have been slagged off all there careers by people like you guys. Mayby if khan gets enough coverage it will rub off on the rest of our fighters??
Did i here you say spoon fed opponents??, jesus christ the lads 20 years old, what the fuck do you want. Hes on his 14 pro fight jeez. If Amirs been fighting spoon fed opponents who has your Hero Thaxton been fighting?? you seem to forget that Lawtons last fight was against Thaxton!!! Thaxtosn British champ so the real question is what the fuck is Thaxton doing fighting Lawton?? like i said before you woudnt be satisfied until they throw him in a cage with some hungry siberian tigers!!!
Finally the race issue i throw in is absalutly genuine, after reading threads on this forum after the willie limmond fight and on bbc and a few others, a large majority of people were disgusted that Amir khan had a british flag alongside with his home nations flag , paksitan. What is the problem with that, is he not allowed to show support for his mother land?? I dont get your hatred towards him, hes a nice, down to earth lad whos representing this country, hes not cocky or arrogant so why hate. Remeber " THE SKY'S THE LIMIT NOT THE LIMITS THE SKY" so, so what if hes ambitiouse, if man kind warent ambitiouse where would we be? you could kiss the flag on the moon good by!!

Re: Amir Khan vs. Scott Lawton this weekend.

I love these people who bring skin colour into it and make it a racism issue one of my favorite fighters is mexican skin colour is not an issue to me i just don't think Khan is anywhere near as good as the hype and he was knocked down by a feather fisted fighter and has shown major flaws now if you want to act like an idiot and call people racist for thinking Khan won't be world champion and that his last opponent was a joke go ahead but i seriously think your way out of order.

Its his arrogance that people dont like - saying unbelievable claims is disrespectful to all the other pros that are around- having said that i thought he is improving fast and is becoming a decent little dosmestic fighter - time will tell if the improvements continue

Re: Amir Khan vs. Scott Lawton this weekend.
i shall join bilbo on his wonderful train journey because i know kahn will be a world champion.
after every fight i come on here and the same people say 'yeh wel he will get knocked out by so and so' and 'he has a weak chin' blah blah fookin blah.
he's 20 years old.....he wasn't born a perfect boxer. ...why isn't he allowed to make mistakes?
he is progressing at the rate in which the boxing regulations are allowing him. he can't fight for a world title yet anyway so when he beats someone at british level there is no point in sayin 'yeh but he beat a punchbag' because he's basically beating the sort of guys that most 20 year old prospects won't get anywhere near for a couple of years. It's not his fault he is battering most of them.
he turns 21 on the 8th dec and he is fighting graham earl apparently who has just come off that war with wbo champ michael katsidis so he is being brought along quite well.
as for his chin.....until he actually gets his on it and goes down its a bit hard to comment on.....the limond shot was on the temple and i think you will find (even in miguel cotto's case) anybody can be shook by a shot on the temple.

Are you retarted in some way, if you READ what ive said then we shouldnt have a problem.
Opened 2 accounts? dont make me laugh!! Just because someone agrees with me. lol
OK ill agree with you just for the sake of it, Amir's "got serious flaws" Well if he has why beat him down about it. Weve got a fighter with unbelievable speed and talent but has flaws (which you must agree upon?), shouldnt we be rooting for him to tighten up his defence etc to help improve him as a fighte?r as he is 1 of a limited number of upcoming british boxers!!!
And for your information i never called anybody a racist but said that i can sense a hint of racism in peoples comments.

First of all answer me this question, If amir fighting punch bags
What was our British champion (Thaxton) doing fghting Lawton in his last fight?? Amir fought lawton after lawton vs thaxton (and you know the results from that). If Lawton was good enough to fight our prime British champion (and give him a godd fight, 7th round tk0) isnt he good enough to fight a 20yr old kid - seriously you guys make me laugh!!
by the way graham earl is a likely matchup for khan 15 pro fight. i gurantee you after that fight you will come up with some more rubbish like earls washed up etc!!

Re: Amir Khan vs. Scott Lawton this weekend.
Until you know for a fact someone is being racist, or you've been posting for a long time and are respected as a good poster, it's probably better to just not bring up racism as a viable argument. I'm sure there are racists on here; they're everywhere in the world, but this is boxing and people get pretty passionate about their favorite fighters or fighters they dislike for whatever reason. Some of the people having an unfavorable opinion about Khan might have brown skin, you don't know. Not trying to pick on you man, but get some thicker skin if you're going to get on this board.

Your probably right mate, and to be honest am not Amir Khan greatest fan or anything like that but just was curious as to all the hatred towords him. If you read my later post ive asking genuine question but all i get is irrelavent answers as it seems my points seem to be correct.

Hop on buddy there's plenty of room it seems, we can both sit up front with the driver!
@Mikay. I applaud you for defending Amir my friend I too think he's a vastly underatted fighter on these boards (although admittedly overhyped by the British media) It's not his fault that the press decide to give him as much coverage as he gets and I really don't see anything wrong whatsoever about being confident in your own abilities.
I love Amir's attitude, think he's a fantastic role model for today's youth and hopefully helps steer away some Asian minorities who might otherwise get involved in the nasty side of Islamic fundamentalism. He's a Pakastani/English Muslim whose proud to be British and to represent our country. He has stood up and said defiantly that he thinks the terrorist attacks in London and around the world are evil and wrong, which must take some bottle for a young Muslim kid who knows full well that the majority of the Arab world hate the West with a passion.
I do think you were wrong to bring racism into though. Nobody on this board to my knowledge has ever made any racist comments about Amir, in fact the most likely person to have done so is probably myself :-[ :P
So apologise for the racist accusations and move on. It's great your supporting Amir, others will come around later but in the meantime make peace with everybody and move on to less controversial subjects.
Hope you stick around the forum, we're a good sort really. Have a :coolclick: and let's all be friends :) :beerchug:

he is progressing at the rate in which the boxing regulations are allowing him. he can't fight for a world title yet anyway so when he beats someone at british level there is no point in sayin 'yeh but he beat a punchbag' because he's basically beating the sort of guys that most 20 year old prospects won't get anywhere near for a couple of years. It's not his fault he is battering most of them.
he turns 21 on the 8th dec and he is fighting graham earl apparently who has just come off that war with wbo champ michael katsidis so he is being brought along quite well.
as for his chin.....until he actually gets his on it and goes down its a bit hard to comment on.....the limond shot was on the temple and i think you will find (even in miguel cotto's case) anybody can be shook by a shot on the temple.
Hop on buddy there's plenty of room it seems, we can both sit up front with the driver!
@Mikay. I applaud you for defending Amir my friend I too think he's a vastly underatted fighter on these boards (although admittedly overhyped by the British media) It's not his fault that the press decide to give him as much coverage as he gets and I really don't see anything wrong whatsoever about being confident in your own abilities.

You won't see any racist comments on the main board here, the mods remove them real quick. Maybe at Dogshite boxing or some other lesser forums but not here. Saddo and the mods exercise a firm grip to keep any unwanted comments off the boards ;)

by the way graham earl is a likely matchup for khan 15 pro fight. i gurantee you after that fight you will come up with some more rubbish like earls washed up etc!!
Earl is washed up. Watch his fight with Katsidis. Except for that one punch that floored Katsidis, Earl got his ass kicked. And bad. The 4th round was especially brutal for him. I don't see Earl giving Con much of a fight at all.

Some of the people having an unfavorable opinion about Khan might have brown skin, you don't know. Not trying to pick on you man, but get some thicker skin if you're going to get on this board.
Your probably right mate, and to be honest am not Amir Khan greatest fan or anything like that but just was curious as to all the hatred towords him. If you read my later post ive asking genuine question but all i get is irrelavent answers as it seems my points seem to be correct.
It's all good buddy. Like I said, stay on this forum and make alot of posts and people will embrace you for the most part, like our resident hobbit Bilbo is. The reason you might not be getting serious answers might be because you haven't posted much and some of what you say might be coming across as purposefully antagonizing, to some people's point of view anyways. Don't sweat the small stuff bro'.

Haha. So who would you have him fight, Hatton, Mayweather, Hopkins?!?!. Please remember, 20yr old, 15th pro fight - So can yo honestly say that Earl is not a good next opponent for Amir?
And again i ask you, What was our British champion (Thaxton) doing fghting Lawton in his last fight if he wasnt even good enougt for Khan to be fighting??

I don't give a fuck about no Thaxton. Thaxton is a bum (who has he ever beat?). There's a reason he has 7 losses. Age and number of fights had ain't got shit to do with anything. Koki Kameda, David Reid and Fernando Vargas all won titles before there 15th pro fight. Mayweather was only 3 fights away from his championship. When your as hyped as Con was/is, your expected to move at a quicker pace.

I don't give a F*** about no Thaxton. Thaxton is a bum (who has he ever beat?). There's a reason he has 7 losses. Age and number of fights had ain't got S*** to do with anything. Koki Kameda, David Reid and Fernando Vargas all won titles before there 15th pro fight. Mayweather was only 3 fights away from his championship. When your as hyped as Con was/is, your expected to move at a quicker pace.
I do like how all our top British fighters have derogatory nickmaes courtesy of VD, Calzcrappy, Fatton, Con :D
What do you call Junior Witter, Clinton Woods and Gavin Rees? Oh and Frochy?

I'm trying to think of a comeback to make regarding Rees though but I just can't, he's S*** and we know he is :-\

Making 2 accounts ?? well like i said just a minute ago shut it you muppet.
I love these people who bring skin colour into it and make it a racism issue one of my favorite fighters is mexican skin colour is not an issue to me i just don't think Khan is anywhere near as good as the hype and he was knocked down by a feather fisted fighter and has shown major flaws now if you want to act like an idiot and call people racist for thinking Khan won't be world champion and that his last opponent was a joke go ahead but i seriously think your way out of order.
Are you retarted in some way, if you READ what ive said then we shouldnt have a problem.
Opened 2 accounts? dont make me laugh!! Just because someone agrees with me. lol
OK ill agree with you just for the sake of it, Amir's "got serious flaws" Well if he has why beat him down about it. Weve got a fighter with unbelievable speed and talent but has flaws (which you must agree upon?), shouldnt we be rooting for him to tighten up his defence etc to help improve him as a fighte?r as he is 1 of a limited number of upcoming british boxers!!!
And for your information i never called anybody a racist but said that i can sense a hint of racism in peoples comments.

Yes opening 2 accounts the other account was created yesterday and you said samething on the other account about race issue you really think im that dumb ?? and even if you aren't your both idiots anyway so i don't really care.

Unbelievable speed ?? and unbelievable talent ?? i don't think so buddy.
You sensed a hint of racism in peoples comments ?? what telling the truth about Khan's flaws ??
