Amir Kahan the long road to nowhere

[HattonTheHammer]

yes i do dissagree, any world talent?? you have to be joking , ye he has decent handspeed but nothing spectacular at 135, his defence is leaky to put it mildly, his chin also is not up to standard

and you can have skilllssssssss as you put it but with a chin like that he wont win a world title unless its a WBO Frank Warren paper belt,

an of course gamboa can be up and coming regardless of age as his only had 10 fights and is improving his level of opposistion all the time, something that khan is failing to do

Khan technically is still a much safer bet to be a world champion than gamboa.

The guy spends 12rounds with his hands at his waist and is just asking for a decent solid puncher to hit him good.

Im not exactly the biggest khan fan but some of the bullshit posted on here does amuse me at times.

The guy is technically a very good fighter and i would be stunned if by the this time next year he isnt a world champ as long as warren can keep his promise and get him a shot.

isnt that exactlly what khan was doing at around the 10 fight mark, except he has been shown up for it whereas gamboa hasnt, not to say he will be in the future,

unless he runs to 140 and takes on a weak champion such as kotelnik, he wont be a champion for quite a while imo , 135 has too much talent ahead of him you have campbell, guzman, pac, JMM, Casa, Katsidis, Juan Diaz, Romanov

Didnt gamboa get knocked down in his last fight??

To be honest mate i wouldnt expect to see any of them in with khan.

Warren will probably get out of his promise to make khan a world champ by the end of 2008 by getting him a flagship belt that has no real standing in any division.

Unluckily for amir he is in just about the most competitive division in boxing though of those names you have mentioned i would suspect khan would be able to beat katsidis and romanov!!
