Amir Khan more dangerous then ever!

[Mars_ax]

All that video showed was a fighter with amazing heart and bollocks. Listen to the comms. I'm more than happy to be in a "minority" with the late great Manny Steward that DID NOT consider Khan a chump. Thanks.

Amazing heart and bollocks? Looked more like a drunken sailor who was petrified and trying desperately to avoid getting KTFO. As for Manny Steward, no disrespect, but due to dementia during the last 5 years of his life, his analysis and commentary had totally deteriorated along with his health.
I hope this helps.

So lets get this straight.

1. The fighter could have chose to stay down for the count.

2. The fighter could have got up and done everything in his power to survive - hold, spoil, etc.

3. The fighter gets up and fights for his life, all guns blazing, kill or be killed, goes out on his shield protesting to the ref.

You think that option 3 demonstrates - "petrified and trying desperately to avoid getting KTFO"

Odd.

Thanks.

You need to get a job working for HBO, Fenn, you're just about as histrionic as they are in regards to calling fights. This is comical. ~~> "The fighter gets up and fights for his life, all guns blazing, kill or be killed, goes out on his shield protesting to the ref". That's dramatic stuff dude.

Make no mistake, Khan was fighting out of desperation and to survive, he's trading with Garcia, not because he has "heart", but rather shit for brains.

BTW, You don't have to swing on Khan's nuts Fenn, he's not even a real Brit.

Not sure how saying a man showed great heart/courage means I'm "swinging from his nuts," but there you go. Weird.

Also it's pretty silly to say a fighter isn't a "world beater" when he's already been "world" champ and beat a bunch of other "world" champs - St Clair, Kotelnik, Malignaggi, Maidana, Judah, Peterson.* Four of these men are still highly ranked. So it's a straight up fact that Khan is world-class.

Danny Garcia is an unbeaten "world" champ. Does losing to him make you a "chump?" Really?

I don't care what nationality Khan is, race, religion or sexual orientation. I just see a boxer. Thanks.

Yeah, he really looked "world class" against Peterson and Maidana didn't he now.
I'm not saying Khan isn't "world class", any Pro reaching the top ten in a division can be considered world class, what he's not and never will be is a part of boxing's best.

At the moment, I can't see Khan defeating any of the top Jr. Welterweights. He gets knocked out in a rematch with D. Garcia & Peterson, I can't imagine him going the distance with Rios or Mike Alvarado, and he would get demolished by Lucas Matthysse. Let's face it Fenn, yer boy is going nowhere fast - fact!

As for you "swinging from Khan's nuts,", probably not as much as you hug Prince Hamed's nuts.

Oh right, so you agree that Khan is world-class, although he's a chump, but what you're saying is - he's not a P4P super great fighter? I doubt anyone disagrees with you? Unless you want to post some links or name some names? Thanks.

Just to clarify @Fenster, all joking aside, I don't really believe Khan is a "chump", and yes, he does have a bit of "heart". He's also a very good but NOT great fighter who's won world titles and has some nice wins on his record, no argument there.The thing is, he's looked anything but impressive in his last 3 or 4 fights and he showed in the Garcia fight that he's not going to be able to hang with anyone with decent power and/or the top dogs @140.
I sincerely hope the guy proves me wrong, it would be great for boxing if he did. At least he hasn't turned tail and ran the first time he got his ass kicked like Prince Hamed.

I hope this helps, but it probably won't.

cheers
