Re: What next for Khan?
Khan needs to get back into action ASAP.
There's no point in dwelling on this defeat if he is serious about his career.
I do believe that he will do a 'Hector Camacho' & go from an exciting fighter & become a safety conscious bore.
It looks like that may be the only option for Khan, as he looks like he can't take a punch at all; although to be fair, Prescott is a savage puncher.

Re: Anyone for Khan vs Hatton ???
i don't think he was actually serious..
Probably there to just make some media hype and help get PPV sales.
Not the first time it has happened in boxing

I want to see him fight Murray.mark thompson wrote:Id be interested to watch Prescott fight again to see what he's up to maybe Murray or Thaxton what does anyone else think ?
Murray was very vocal afterwards, so it would be an easy sell IMO.

Khan needs a real trainer...may i suggest...Manny Steward? Khan is tall, and has good power and speed, sure he can make something out of him...

Re: What next for Khan?
Khan needs to retire, I have nothing against him personally and he's a decent kid but he's not a fighter by any stretch of the imagination. He's gonna get hurt if he carries on.
He should also count himself extremely lucky to have made good money to get to this point.

Khan has achived alot more than you ever will Riddick, lay of the lad. HE lost, no use kicking a guy when he is down.
He has the tools, like i said before, his Real test begins now. He has to make his way back, be it a FW Short cut or the long route, he needs to get a proper trainer, and think things through

He said that it's laughable that Team Khan brought some unknown Colombian over when he could have a a big domestic battle with him (Murray) & he could have KO'd Khan instead.

Re: What next for Khan?
oh jesus christ.
And to think that most of Khan's fans had actually accepted the truth by now.
I'm disappointed you didn't add the obligatory "But you've never stepped in the ring, who are you to comment!"
And for your information I never said anything derogatory or personal about Khan himself, it seems to be you who invented that.

Amir Khan needs to do a Hector Camacho!
That's right, he needs to completely reinvent himself as a fighter if he is to succeed.
Hector started out as one of the most exciting & aggressive fighters around, until the night that Edwin Rosario stunned him to the sole of his boots, then he became a safety conscious bore, pretty much for the rest of his career.
Khan has all the physical attributes to make a good boxer type - he is tall & lean, he has long arms, great handspeed & good amateur pedigree.
He loves to trade with opponents, but he needs stop, as the likelihood of getting tagged is increased & it looks like he has little or no chin whatsoever.
Team Khan need to get the old Camacho tapes out, because that is the only way I can see him succeeding in the future.

Re: Amir Khan needs to do a Hector Camacho!
even though he can box and move.
he's not really loose and fluid like camacho was.
plus he's not got that natural awkwardness of a left hander.
i can't think of a solution to this.
he can always come round and clean my house for 20 quid a day.

KHAN AT LIGHT WELTERWEIGHT ???
Why on earth are people calling for Khan to move up a weight he would come up against even bigger punchers, okay so he might not be weight drained as some people are saying and he would have more power, but he would still have that same glass CHIN !!!

Re: Amir Khan needs to do a Hector Camacho!
one of his problems in doing this is that he's a fairly stiff type.
he's not real loose and fluid like camacho.
plus it takes a lot of effort to run around the ring for 36 minutes.
ask junior witter.
i accept he needs to be more defensive in future.
but this wouldn't work for amir i don't think. :(

muraay was the fight i wanted before but now i would think that its murrays to win, as for ppv why was this fight on ppv in the first place its disgraceful.jomothepure wrote:Yes good post by cannibal also sweet science is right about the 'shit or bust' possibility - they might think they have to raise the bar in order to keep the public interested. British title v Murray the obvious.
Could well be rematch with Two Jabs though. I'm guessing that Khan's new wage demands dictate that he's going to be on PPV for the forseeable? In which case digging own graves come to mind.

Rematch or forget it.
On a seperate note, there have been quite a few headlines floating about - N03 in particular made me chuckle :-
1. The Sun: Amir Khan May Pack It In Due To Injury, Refs Keep Stepping On His Hands.
2. News Of The World: Khan Changes Nickname To Kid Candle, One Blow, He’s Out.
3. Daily Mail: Against Colombian Terrorist, Khan Didn’t Need Weigh In, He Needed Way Out.
4. Daily Express: New Wardrobe For Khan: When He Woke Up, Clothes Were Out Of Style.

Re: What next for Khan?
In a retirement contest (WWE style) with Murray. The loser must retire. Goodbye Amir 2nd best in the NW of England. God I am cruel sometimes, but lets be honest you should prove yourself as the best in your own country before looking at the Worlds best. Khan thought Prescott was a bum and an easy nights work. He wasnt and now Khans future as a boxer is in doubt. He and FW avoided the likes of Thaxton and Murray looking for what looked like easier fights.Asterix wrote:That would be excellent.sweetscience wrote:he might as well go shit or bust with murray
