Come on Amir, get the finger out of your ass and fight somebody who'll fight back.
Amir is ahead of Juan Diaz for quality of opponents fought so far in Amri's career.

Diaz fought Michael Davis (21-10) in his 16th fight. Khan fought former IBF Super Feather champion St Clair. Dida didn't even fight for the WBC Youth title until his 23rd fight! Khan is the Commonwealth champion.

People expect British fighters to be rushed too quickly! :evil:

Perhaps so but Diaz has unified the division at 24 and I doubt Khan will ever be half as good as Juan. Diaz also fought a variety of opponents with regards to punching power whereas Khan refuses to fight anyone with half a dig. (lets not forget that St Claire was defeated on his 1st title defence and when he fought Khan he threw abot 10 punches the whole fight)

Asians + Money = Attitude
.

and WTF is that supposed to mean ?

He's hardly the first Boxer to give it the trash talk is he...

Besides, half these "Statements" Are probably not even From Khan..

Well said Emerson... Khan may have not fought any spectacular fighters so far, but he had a lot more serious Fights than most Prospects did at his leve/age/experience

I just don't understand Britain's fascination with rushing their talent, they then lose spectactularly, and then we moan about them.

exactley... I find a lot of our Fellow Boxing "Fans" here tend to Critisize good Prospects with almost anyhting they can find... Then later say... oh there is no longer any intrest in Boxing anymore because its all Sky Sports or PPV.

No, there is no interest because its damn near hard to get a proper reputation when Boxing's own Fans seem to denounce everyone with a hint of Talent..

and here i was thinking it was the Promoters Screwing over the fighters... How naive of me
