Khan Interview -

Part 1 -FIGHTHYPE \\ AMIR KHAN: "I'VE BEEN WORKING ON A COUPLE OF NEW THINGS...YOU'LL SEE A DIFFERENT AMIR"
Part 2- FIGHTHYPE \\ AMIR KHAN: "MANNY JUST HAS TO BE CAREFUL WITH THAT BIG HEAD OF BRADLEY...HE WILL SPARK HIM"
Please dont say that Khan is avoiding Bradley. Were you asleep for a year. Did you not see him put Bradley down constantly trying his best to get a fight. As far as Kell Brook goes he could be a good fight for Khan. But he needs to fight at least one good contender near the top before hand. Kell has won alot of fights but who are they. A couple of little names like Ndou and Hatton but there not world class.
I understand why you dont like him because of his smug attitude but the guy has had one less fight than Brook and has fought world class opposition. He is always going for the big fight and takes risks.
I would love to see more fighters like khan taking on challanges than fighters who have 30 fights or more against losers just for a better record (Jhon Murray).
I like the fact that Kell wants the fight but he should be willing to take on someone in the lower top 10 or 12 before he deserves a shot at the title. Not just fight a bunch of safe nobodies to make his record look good.
Uhm....I never said Khan was avoiding Bradley. I have consistently berated Bradley for avoiding Khan. I merely pointed out that what Amir said in the linked interview about not wanting to fight Pacquiao's left overs. I am a fan of Khan as a fighter but his personality and arrogance is now starting to overshadow his ability. He is nothing like the finished article but has fought decent opposition, as I have pointed out, for which you have to respect the guy.
