I don't know how any body can be labelled as "world class" on literally one minture of boxing.

i agree with you mate

hes exciting to watch and probably alot of folk are against him because hes with Warren

I dont buy into this racial reasons that people dont like him
although im sure a this is a reason why a few folk dont

but mainly due to Warren being his promoter and him being successful
Seems if you get a Silver or Gold at the olympics Britain turns on you.

Your talkin Bollocks....the one thing you can't claim Khan is as a Boxer and thats Boring so why would watching his DVD be a waste of time or a pile of shite?

All this Anti-Khan Vibe should be more Aimed at Warren, not Khan who i'm sure would have gladly fought Murray, thaxton and the rest.

Anyway Khan seem's a nice guy who always makes time for his Fans and any Charity Work. He was thrust into the Limelight at 17 and has done a pretty good job of dealing with it all.

a person is entitled to like or dislike a person as they wish. The boring old racist angle which to be fair to amir hes never commented on is getting so long in the tooth

I have to agree, Gomez hurt him and Khan admitted that. Limond scrambled his senses, but( with a bit of help) he was able to recover and come back. When you look at Khans career its not that of a future World champion. Gomez well past his best and Limond not known for punching power fell just short of beating him. Other opponents were smaller men and if he couldnt beat them he was going nowhere. The win over Barrera was a fix following a lucky (for Khan) accidental cut. The fight should have been stopped and declared a NC. Prescott was Khans biggest opponent who was known for his KO punch. Prescott thought he could win in the 4th but Khan with his arrogance went out all guns firing and played right into Prescotts hands. Prescott saw his chance and finished it there and then. There are many good fighters whose videos are worth watching but I am afraid to say Khans are not.

ive met him he was at a night club smae time as me and he was being a tosser to most people. i also dont like the way he talks in interviews soundlike hes gods gift to british boxing. if he talked more respectably and didnt dismiss potential opponants id like him more

that said i do love watching him box

Always quiet when Ive met him in Olivers, hardly knew he was there. personally I think he's okay (albeit he's made some mistakes), those around him, a different matter.... not too disimilar from Hatton in that way, cracking lad himself, but the people around him....
