Who thinks Amir is

[heihaci]

BUT ...... Naz wasn't Asian, his family are from Yemen, which is a totally different place, different community and different genetics that Pakistan!!

to 99% ppl in the UK anyone with a shade of brown is automatically asian!!

I think people are being a bit too harsh on him personally. After all he has only had 9 fights, and has probably fought better opposition than a lot of other boxers at this stage in their careers. Its just that he gets them out of there in a few rounds and makes it look easy, so ppl start criticising him. I say lay off him until we know how good he really is.

nope holyfield with 11 pro fights fought 15 rounds with best cruiserweight at that time and won michael moorer i think had like 12 or 11 pro fights and he won lightheavyweight title pernell whitaker going into his 5th pro fight fought guy with 21-1 also after 12 pro fights he fought for nabf lightweight title  hell even leon spinks what was it his 6 or 7th pro fight he won world heavyweight title from ali so ur statement about him fight better opposition than alot of fighters at that stage of his career is wrong

That's why I think not everyone should be allowed to vote. They are too thick.

Good point Ice but age and maturation have a role to play too; Evander and Pernell didn't have their pro debuts until they were 21 and 20 respectively.

Another good point, cheers for that X. CCs all round.

Great points ice cold, but you no Mr Wrren and his antics with his prize fighters, Kahn is still young but he hasnt got the Charism that a Naz has to be thrown in at the deep end at 21 for a World Title, i think Kahn will be found out soon enough but Warren will milk every penny he can till that happens.

HAMMO, sorry mate your TOTALLY wrong, he's not fought better opposition than most boxers, everyone one of them have been blown up super feathers who can't punch! Go through his record and see for yourself, he's just a money making machine cause he's asian, and they have a good backing by their community, just look at Naz. If he was a normal wee punter called John from Liverpool, you wouldn't have even heard of him. Before some half witt comes on and says I'm being racsit in some way, I aint being racist, just being realistic. Over-rated, big headed wee turd.
Incidently, I saw the piece about Kindelan on a website from the states, will try and find it again.

you failed to make mention of the fact that he won silver medla at olympics as a reason why he gets more attention than a normal wee punter called John from Liverpool

Exactly.

Ok so you name a few boxers who fought better opposition at this stage in their career and that makes my statment wrong does it? I said he has fought better opposition than A LOT OF OTHER BOXERS, and there are a hell of a lot of boxers in the world, so naming a few doesn't make me wrong.

[Top Dog]

Name a few better who? You just need to look at the Boxrec site and take anyone of the the guys in the ratings, they've nearly all had better guys. Think he's been handed lighter guys all the way through, granted some of the guys look good on paper but they are a lot lighter than Khan, no threat whatsoever, fact. Aye fair enough he won silver but take a look at Fraudley Harrison, need I say more. :P

[Jamoie]

Just think of it like this, if the media left him alone, and he was on undercards left right and center, we'd all like the kid. Calling him a "good prospect" and somebody we should "keep our eye on". Its because the media are making out hes Ali reincarnated knocking out pro boxers like nobodys business that us people who know a thing or two are saying "hang on, my sister could knock out most of those guys, this Khans a fraud".

And yes he does slightly remind me of Naseem, unfortunately. I still love watching the Hamed-Barrera fight. Oh i love it.

Tell me the age of Amir Khan right now and the age of those fighting, then tell me better opposition of a kid who won a silver medal and turned pro at that age at this point please?

[Top Dog]

Khan is 19 I believe, not sure what kind of point your trying to make?
If the point your trying to make is that he is still a kid learning his trade, then thank you, cause I've been trying to say that all along, he's nothing at the moment! All of this, he's something special crap is getting on my tits, how can you tell that when he keeps on fighting total bums. And only time will tell if he will be any good. The standard of opposition he's had has been sub-standard cause just about everyone of them has been a weight division below, and complete non punchers. If he's the prodical son as you seem to think he is, lets see him in with a GOOD journeyman to start with, a Gary Reid type, then we will see if he's got the bollocks for the game. He's his own worst enemy, saying he could beat Mayweather over 4 rounds, clown.

Exactly! He is 19 years of age for god sake, and for that age he aint doing bad. Why do so many people dislike him? He is a british prospect who has made his country proud in the amateurs and is trying to do the same as a pro. Why cant people support, your like old women trying to find something to have a rant about.

i dont rant was pointing something out what i dont like about amir is that he said he could go 4 rounds with mayweather and amir is only upstart and mayweather is like p4p 1 so bit of silly statement of amirs part if i was amir i beat few good people and maybe win title before i start shouting the odds

[Top Dog]

Hammo, what are you on about??!? ICE COLD has got it bang on, we're not moaning for the sake of it, he's basically saying the same as me, in that Khan should stop talking pish and get on with learning the basics, beat Mayweather over 4 round, what a fudd. That aint moaning, that's sense mate!! He believe his own hype, and obviously you do as well.
