He got smoked in the test event by Mario Kindelan, 33-13. There is nothing to be ashamed of for that, but it does likely mean, like everybody else, that his medalling will be very dependent on not getting drawn in the same pod as Kindelan.

For us UK fans it would of course be great to get another medal in these Olympics. But it's such a shame that the UK Boxing team is just one person Khan himself.

I hope this doesn't effect his performance with no 'team support' behind him.

Hope the BBC give him good TV coverage here in the UK.

Very true, but its been widely reported that Khan feels he learnt a lot from that defeat and considers the same result, or at least that margin of defeat won't occur next time.

Remember, Khan got beat in the euro championships in Croatia by an opponent in the first round. The next time they met (next tournement), Khan absolutely slaughtered him....

Kindelan is still too good for Khan, in all probability, but an Olympic final between the two of them would be awesome!

Khan draws Kaperonis (GRE) in the first round.

thats the schedule. struggling to find the draw as such so i can work out who can meet who at what stage etc... all i know is that Khan can't face Kindelan until the final.
