    Far too early to tell...

    for me hes doing what is asked of him at this stage of his career... hes only had 7 fights give the guy a chance

    should he be heading bills on ITV..... NO

    but where dealing with the fickle Joe Public and not hard core boxing fans

    Well i think the media have over reacted, but in all truth, he was a 17 year old kid who gave one of the best p4p ameaturs and probably the best ameaturs at the 04 Olympics a run for his money and took the silver medal, then he beat the same guy at age 18, he has raw talent to die for and he has alot to work with, but we have to remmeber he is a 19 year old novice in the pro game he needs good people around him who will bring him on, he is a great fighter and with the right people will go very far, i dont think he is that over hyped, he is well known and thought of writely so after what he did in the Olympics. Look at other fighters who are hyped to the hill and back like Miguel Cotto who did nothing at the 00 Olympics, Kahn is learning and we cant judge him till he has been in with more styles and has picked up more experience.

    Not to sure just yet you could be right, but he should mould a style and with his reflexes should make sure we will never find out.

    I tend to agree with Emma. I think Khan will get found out soon enough, looks chinny too. The first time he's in with a quick heavy handed guy his hype will be shattered. But Warren will continue to put him in with non-punchers for a while yet, he's not going to take any chances cause he's invested too much money and time. If Warren really believes Khan will win the british title later this year, he's totally dreaming, why doesn't he put him in with someone like Martin Watson, who is on the brink of a title shot? I'll tell you why, he's get found out!

    That's funny when did Warren say this? You cant fight for the British title till your 21 which would leave Kahn over a year away, so i dont know where you heard this cos it wont happen. When will he be put in with x and z fighter he has been a pro less than a year, give him a chance, people are so fickle the same people who critized him last night are the same ones who would of said he was a world beater if he had taken him out in the first round.

    We cant judge just yet he has some great skills and probably the best prospect in years.

    Hi Emma,
    I was thinking the same but thought I would get mobbed by saying that here.
    I dont he should head lining fights at this stage in his career.
    What have you heard or that turned you off him.
    I hope he doesnt turn into a another Naz
    would you like to see a match up with your boy kell Brook

    You cant blame him for being a bit big headed, any young guy of his age would be the same, he is making millions left right and centre offered all sorts of contracts, being idolised by the british press, but he comes across ok if you ask me ive seen him on a few shows on tv and he seems ok.

    What happened to Bojado should be a lesson. If he keeps gooning and doing idiot Naz impressions he's going to turn a lot of people off him.

    I didn't think he fought very well on Saterday, waaay to cocky and could have been KO'd. He can only get better but I'm not sure if he's over hyped.

    even if him being chinny is true, if he boxed to his strengths and used his lightening reflexes more often and kept his hands up, he shouldnt get hit to much anyway.
