dappadan Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 I dont understand what people's problems are with him?! he is a dedicated professional, British and a world champion, that will do for me........Well done Amir Khan Nor do I a lot of people seem to dislike British sportsmen for some reason I train for a very low level at kickboxing and I can see how much dedication these guys must have to give Full respect well done Amir Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kalim_a Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Fantastic performance by Khan. Was mature throughout. Freddie Roach has done wonders, just worried about his health though, parkinson's really effecting him by the looks of it. Don't know how long he can carry on.

dappadan Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 what a bullshit champion, threw loads of punches that have no effect, then ran off. art of boxing is bullshit people pay for a fight. So the other guy who did a hell of a lot less should have won then? Khan threw 870 odd punches compared to 400 odd from Kotelnik hardly throwing and running away Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the end of the day, he fought a flawless fight. He's the one going home with the title and a decent payday ahead of him. Can't blame him.

Sly Posted July 18, 2009 Share Posted July 18, 2009 Yeah, and how do you define 'best prospect in the world'? ...Because if you seriously think Nathan Cleverly is 'the best prospect in the world' you ain't got a clue about boxing. Sure, he's a good fighter, but Cleverly isn't even the best prospect in Wales. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone see cleverley fight? surely the best young prospect in the world What is 7 + 4?! Good job you didn't see my 12 round scorecard then! I had Kotelnik taking the last two or three rounds and one or two earlier in the fight, but some were close. Dominant performance from Khan though and as expected Roach has worked wonders. Khans defence is sound now and he seems to be able to listen to Roach and follow the gameplan so those two could be great together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rigondeaux, Jacobs, Ward, Alexander, Peterson, Korobov, Sutherland, DeGale, Saunders, Gavin, Lara etc etc Even Gamboa, Juanma, Berto, Linares, Khan if they still count as prospects.

Cleverly isn't even the best prospect at 175 IMO. Shumenov holds that distinction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 Alot of talk on the radio this morning of a Kahn V Hatton, Frankl Warren was saying he wouldn't want it really because Hatton is past it and shouldn't be boxing anymore.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ballybunion_Ice Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 I think Kell Brook is the most likely to be the next BIG thing in UK boxing, to early to judge the Olympians IMO until they move up from fighting the Journey men. In regards to the Olympians, i'm sick and fecking tired of hearing 'Shit on the Villa' everytime Gavin is fighting, the brain dead knuckle draggers arent doing him any favours IMO.

itdoesntmatterwhatthissay Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 What a great fight, Khan looked excellent and really showed serious mental strength throughout. Found out he didn't have the power early on and I would say boxed impeccably for his first serious test of his mentality. Rubbish way to a win a title (in that he fought someone fairly average) but then I guess you have to progress and he is very young. Not sure on that performance they should be talking about Hatton, think a bit of power would have left Khan a little stunned but still excellent. Hopefully though he can add some more power to his punches because he is going to find himself on the wrong end of a few beatings in the coming years if not. All in all though, excellent stuff, he made 12 rounds without taking any serious hits with a guy who has never been knocked out, let alone knocked down and beat him conclusively.

Gabby15 Posted July 19, 2009 Share Posted July 19, 2009 prescott rematch now i hope!!! Warren and Roach aren't that stupid. Prescott lost a SD to a bum 2 nights ago aswell so i'm sure that'll be the excuse they use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
colleh Posted July 19, 2009 Author Share Posted July 19, 2009 Khan would beat Prescott now. He's learning how to fight behind a jab and keeps his hands up to protect himself. Prescott is very average. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
