Amir Kahan the long road to nowhere

[Dark Lord Al]

Amir Khan says he needs an american trainer.

Lets hope he doesnt get Buddy Mgcirt.

Four years as a pro and he's only at Commenwealth title level and getting knocked down on a regular basis.

Khans an avarage talent who will fail to win a European title.

Warren doesnt want to step him up cos he's his main meal ticket.

Khan can do whatever he wants , unless Warren can buy him a new chin , he will get KOED againest any sort of puncher.

I don't think chin matters really.

What matters is that once their chin is tapped and they go down, do they fall apart or do they come back stronger.

That can mentally tell what a fighter has. Apparently Khan has something because he got up and won.


But he can't keep fighting opposition like this unless he wants to go the andre berto route.

A bad habit he has is working of His last shot not the other guys. Down the road it will find Him.

Andre berto is WBC welterweight champion of the world

I think khan would bite your hand off to be in the same boat as berto now.

Team khan are stuck in a lull now and warren seems quite happy to be cashing in on ITV money that khan is getting for fighting 2nd rate opponents.

Amir should be spending more time on finding a new promoter who can get him over to sky/setanta etc and less on tuning up a style which i believe is already good enough to compete at the highest level!!

If he was good enougth Frank would have Him in there make no mistake. There are reasons why He is not getting pushed, Frank Hates losing and losersplus Hes not a bad judge Ernie taught him well.

[MIKAY]

No doubt the lads got talent. Offensively id say hes the best from all the current prospects but defensivly a big no no, plus his inside fighting is crap. His speed and combinations at times are simply astonshing especially 9-10 punches against gomes when he was hurt himself.

Trainer wise america would be perfect for him, sumwhere where hes not a big name, roger maywether would be good or sum old school trainer. He neeeds to be roughed up a bit and brought back to the real world which would do him good. All i can say is stay away from manny steward!!!

Going to the States would be a disaster for him in everyway.

I'm going against the grain and think khan is not as great as his fans think but much better than his haters say he is. I still don't have a solid opinion of this guy yet but at this stage in his career he's doing a pretty decent job so far. Nothing wrong with gradual progression, sure he has flaws and makes some mistakes but this is the time for all that, and to work out kinks and learn, he's managed to win which is most important, a fighter doesn't have to decapatate every opponet to be on a good track, he's a young prospect, not sure why so much is expected of him already. He's been hyped but not really overhyped....i think he'll be just fine. Does he look like the next great pfp best..no, but will he get a belt, i say probably.

Agree--against Limmond( who is not a puncher) he showed he had the character to get back up but he has yet to face a puncher and how many times do we hear of his opponents at the start of a fight " he is not noted as a puncher"...

I think he has enormous talent and the fact that he is seeking coaching in the States is the right way....
