What odds would you give on Khan doing a Hamed and walking away....??

[Mark TKO]

If I was a bookie I wouldn't offer more than 10s

Just curious, psychologically its going to take some coming back and everyone would fancy their chances.

One more defeat will finish his career and the high life would end at 21

He might even have to get a 9-5 job when he's 25 !

[hitmanhatton]

i doubt hell just give up but will end up like fraudley just figthing bums on undercards and still claiming his brilliant,

hell never have to get a 9-5 as i bet his made millions already so unless his spending his money like its going out of fashion he would be ok

[Mark TKO]

the 9-5 was tongue in cheek

he won't be making the 30 or so million he was planning on over the next 6 years or so thats for sure.

Wouldn't have a clue how much he has made so far - 5 million or so max ??!?

I would say about 6- 8 million give or take... Medallist are earing big since fight 1. That being said i think he can earn a few more but fighting bums before history repeats itself agaisnt tough opposition.

[hitmanhatton]

well i remember hearing hed made a mil before even stepping into the ring as a pro, i think about the 5 million mark is probably right,

[Mark TKO]

yep same as Audley

Maybe has alot to do with it, the hunger factor. The riches are supposed to come after years of hard work not before the first bell. Can't blame any of them for taking it mind but what's the answer.

Rememeber David Reid too - no idea what became of him

[hitmanhatton]

i dont think its a lack of hunger fraudley always looks scared in the ring , khan it simply is ability thats missing, at least fraduley kept that glass chin secret for quite a while longer than khan

[eggsoup]

i`m not against Khan i`ve enjoyed watching him fight, but he was talking about fights against Hatton and Manny Pac, where as Presscott was thinking about Khan. lack of respect, justice served!

[Kirkland Laing]

If you add up everything he's made so far from the ring and outside endorsements and take 40% tax and 10%+ agents fees (for the outside stuff) then he'll have somewhere over a million. His family will have made a few quid selling tickets too but nowhere near enough to pay for the house they all moved into which was IIRC £400 000 according to the papers. So take the mortgage and his pension plan off his earnings and he's got hundreds of thousands which is probably all invested. He's not going to retire while there's still big money to be earned, he can still make a few quid more with careful matchmaking. Then he can do reality TV and celebrity crap.

Difference between Khan and Hamed is Hamed had won european and world titles and beat world rated fighters top 10 type also made P4P number 4 or 5 and made £50m and only lost to Barrera on points.Khan was only a commonwealth champ probably made £1m-2m max and lost to another contender inside 1 minute alot of difference and Naz himself said he jacked to spend time with his young family.Also thing is with Khan with his new lifestyle and hangers on won't take him long to be bankrupt.

[Gandalf]

Khan will most likely continue. He probably hasnt made that much money from boxing. 5M seems over the top. Scrap is probably nearer the ball with 2M tops. With taxes and training team and all that, Khans split is reduced significantly.

Hamed had made a fortune and beaten some very good names. Hamed was regarded internationally. Khan hasnt even stepped up to the world level and hasnt got much of a reputation because he hasnt actually beaten anybody yet.

He will continue. I dont think he will be very successful though. The chin will be the achilles heel. And every opponent now knows it doesnt take a lot to spark him.

yeah, he's only 21 and...... ahhhh. forget it.



I'm wondering who would he fight next.

[SweetPea]

Khan's not walking away. He's 21.
