    Default gamboa and mares are the best prospects not khan

    I keep hearing about how good Khan is and blah blah and i feel Mares and Gamboa are far surperior prospects Mares is the next Juan Manuel Marquez with his excellent countering skills and Gamboa is like the little version of Roy Jones Jr with his low hand style and lightning reflexes its a shame that most fans dont actually know about these quality prospects and focus too much on Khan who i personally feel is very overrated and one more question do you feel Gamboa and Khan will fight at some point in there careers ?

    I don't think that there paths will ever cross, too much of a difference in weight class.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.

    It ain't just Gamboa and Mares. There's a bunch of prospects out there that are better than Con

    I think Gamboa and Mares are better prospects clearly but I don't think Khan's shit or anything. Just his defense and chin are too iffy.

    Agreed here aswell i dont think Khan is rubbish or anything like that but he is far too hyped and all the fighters he has fought have been feather fisted except Gomez but he was a shot fighter and was better at the lower weight classes and Khan to me isnt stepping up at all i just read a thread here that Khans camp offered derrick gainer a fight ? what a joke that is why dont he fight someone like David Diaz or atleast a live opponent with some recognition ? but i have been very impressed with Mares and Gamboa's opposition so far

    Great thread. I don't think that Khan will be put in with someone as dangerous as Gamboa until he leaves Warren. The only dangerous fight I think they are likely to take is a very lucrative one like Manny Pacquiao because I think that they know he isn't as good at this moment as he is hyped up to be and if they are going to lose the 0 which IMO they would against world class opposition it would have to be when they are making lots of £££££££££££. If I was in charge of Khan I would be chasing David Diaz all over the place because Diaz is still a very good competitor can take a lot of punishment and would give Khan a few problems he hasn't faced yet, but Warren doesn't think like that he thinks the way to go about it is build a record up with bums and has beens and then go for the weakest of the world champs in a division and then low and behold he has a mediocre fighter that is world champ and has ducked every single top fight out there.

    There is another British Lightweight prospect out there who I like the look of and that is John Murray. He looked really good the other week against Lee Meager for the british title and I think he could well cause Khan a few headaches too but again I don't think Warren would allow this fight to happen!

    Agreed i think theres plenty of fighters in the lower weight class that are better but dont get recognized because of the weight class they are in which is a shame by the way i like your picture of Joel Casamayor he is one of my favorites

    I dunno what Khans rep is like overseas but he's only big here because a) he's an olympian and b) he's like the only prospect we have!!

    These other guys you mention are probably better but they in a far bigger pool talent. Its not like there all clearly established names yet.

    Khans just a bit of a golden boy to us Brits really.

    Well thats pretty obvious considering your name and picture your biased Khan fan that cant stand any fair criticism about your favorite fighter that to me isnt a proper boxing fan

    Yes i am a true boxing fan, ive been following boxing as far back as i can remember, LONG before Khan came onto the scene.

    Its just that search around the forum and you'll find loads of threads started about Khan, that's hes shit, he wont make world champ, he's overrated etc etc etc etc. Its actually getting a bit long in the tooth now honestly.

    That's cuz it's true. He is overrated. Why you think there still facing bums? Come on now. Derrick Gainer? That's hilarious.

    I think Khan is faster more schooled with better skills he just keeps fighting bums.
