Who do you think he will fight on the 6th decenber in Birmingham then?
Got a funny feeling it will be a non Puncher ;D
A bum.
And its going to be PPV.
hopefully it will be a tough fighter it will be good to see if he can bounce back see what he really is made off
Himself.....
Just watch how high his hands are gonna be from the first bell;)
Thaxton would be a good opponent but he can bang a bit so........
my mum is free and could do with the xmas shopping money.:cool:
How funny would it be if Prescott headlined and Amir was on the undercard ;D
i hope its against a decent fighter. I know its more than likely not to be, but hes only young, its very early days for him. Bruno got sparked out when he was on route for his world title. Khan may have to wait another 10 years haha but he will get there.
Its going to be a long wait for Amir if he needs an unwilling crackhead to donate his title to him.
funny thing is i think they might not stick him in with a punch bag.... as that is what got him sparked out in the first place, he became unscared of what he was being hit by.
a rematch would be a massive risk... but if it dosnt happen the $how is over ;)
but please no more PPV's :rolleyes:
He needs to take out Thaxton and prove to the UK public he can "ave it";)
Would gain him loads of respect if he could bounce back and take a Thaxton out:)
i got a funny feeling he might even go that route!
:D that should be the blurb for it.
Khan vs Thaxton
'Ave It!'
I want him in an Audley styled slogan t-shirt simply saying "khan i or Khant i ?"
Seriously though if he could scalp Thaxton then he'd be back in buisiness till he got sparked again anyway;D
Just a look at the big boys in the division must have him reaching for a pampers.
Simply not gonna happen is it and he needs to go up a weight possibly and really get the sh*t kicked out of him!!
Thaxton isn't the British champ anymore John Murray is ;)
I know mate but they won't stick him in with Murray yet;D
he's still on his "learning curve" hahahaha
Thaxton would be a good scalp OR better still go the Romanov route (a brilliant fighter who i saw close up at the Hall beat Thaxton easily but on a cut)
I think Thaxton is fighting next month against Mendos or something like that so that may rule him out of a Dec bout anyway.
Maybe he should go the Murray route..? i think he'll still get the same support as before but it will surely be all over if he loses again?
That's what I meant. Thaxton is occupied with a European shot. Khan hasn't even proved to be best in Britain. The Murray fight would be great but wont happen at the moment.
As for Romanov - he is class. He'd muller Khan. No-way that fight was ever happening from when they mentioned it - and certainly not now.
Your wasting your time..... go play with your spud gun
It's hillarious taking the piss out of Paul Ingle Violet...
Shut up..... and Welcome to the UK forum :cool:
Fancy your own anti Britain sticky thread then?;D
I seen your thread. It's kind of incomplete. Why no
Lennex Lewis-Hasim Rahman 1
Mike Tyson-Frank Bruno 2
Lennox Lewis-Oliver McCall 1
Paul Ingle-Mbuelo Botile
Micky Ward-Shea Neary
Nassem Hamed-Marco Antonio Barrera
Mark Breland-Lloyd Honeyghan
Julian Jackson-Herol Graham
Put em in your one ;)
Khan needs to fight a decent fighter to prove he got caught cold. Thaxton does seem like a really good choice in my eyes.
Fight John Murray for the British title, prove he's the best young lightweight
Thaxton would be a good choice... IMO, I think Kahn just got caught cold...
Kahn's a bit over rated right now. He could grow into a world class fighter but he has much to learn... He's got alot of time.
Totally different Frank Bruno lost to James Smith who could punch and won a World title, and give some of the better Heavyweights good arguments. Plus Frank Bruno won almost every round against James Smith until he got caught in the last round by a lucky punch and then got pounded along the ropes until he crumbled, Frank Bruno never had a bad chin he just didn't have survival instincts.
After what happened I think he's got to go down the british title route and fight the likes of Thaxton , Murray , Earl etc.
Ideally I'd like to see him do what Nigel Benn did after he lost to Michael Watson. Head over to the USA and fight some seasoned yet not to remarkable Americans without to much exposure. He'll get his confidence back and he'd learn a lot from the fights and the sparring there without as much of the immense pressure he has every time he steps into the ring here.
Problem is Khan is now virtually the only Ace in Warrens hand and he's going to be even more over protective of Khan now than he was before.
I don't go for this got caught cold stuff as an excuse. Khan didn't go into the fight with a game plan (well not a good one anyway) and he paid for it big time.
Is he chinny.... maybe a little but it was his defence or lack there of that cost him the KO this time.
For the record I think Khan would beat Thaxton with his speed. Had the fight taken place a year ago Thaxton would have probably stopped him.
Bruno was no also ran or loser. He lost only to the very best. The era he fought in with Witherspoon, Tyson and Lennox Lewis was lightyears ahead of todays crop and he was competitive with all of them except Tyson and he even rocked him in their first fight.
If Bruno was around today he'd be a world champ without question. He'd blow away most of todays fighters, and of the domestic scene Williams, Skelton and Harrison, none of them would make it past 6 rounds with him.
If either Lewis, Witherspoon or Tyson were in their primes I'd bet all three could unify the current mediocre division, no shame in Bruno losing to them.
People are talking of him fighting Martin Gethin. I really hope he does and think (and hope) Gethin can beat him.
