Good Riddance Amir Khan
Re: Good Riddance Amir Khan
I try not to go down this road on here, but.........
There is some absolute horseshit being spoken on here about Amir Khan.
I remember before the Maidana fight was sealed people were screaming for the fight, after it happened with Amir proving what everyone asked him to prove which was that hw had heart and a chin, people now discredit the win.
Last night he fought the European champion who whilst was not a world beater was hardly Damon Reed was he??
Why has no-one mentioned the fact that McCloskey for a world title challenger did very little in the fight??
Why is it Amir's fault that the ref and the doctor stopped the fight?
If I were Amir I would stay well clear of the UK, at least he is appreciated in the states. What a sad thing to say, but its true

Re: Good Riddance Amir Khan
Your insight is brilliant - watch the 10th round against Maidana to see how Khan took multiple heavy shots and stayed on his feet.fasteddie wrote:mccloskey doing nothing was his game plan,look eveytime khan came in mccloskey was trying to land the straight right or the right uppercut which i believe if it had landed khan would of went over cause everytime he gets hit with a good shot he looks like bambi on ice,i hope he does what you say and stay well the f*ck away from the uk cause i cant stand the prickWrists wrote:I try not to go down this road on here, but.........

Unfortunately I done £300 in on it but I had a 110/1 winner last week so that was just a bit of loose change.mickey1975 wrote:I hope you were not to pissed to lay off Berto on Betfair as is your custom when things arent going your way....Hagler2002 wrote:The Maidana form line is hanging by a thread and will be dead and buried later when Berto smashes Ortiz.keithmoonhangover wrote: He also fought Marcos Rene Maidana, who is the #4 in his division.

At least I have the balls to post my tips on here, you don't see people saying well done when I get a winner just pricks like you jumping aboard the bandwagon when I have a loser.
I obviously got it wrong, Ortiz looked strong at the weight, the step up has helped him, he must have been struggling to do the 140.
I've had enough of this forum and have requested for my account to be deleted so when I do get a boxing selection wrong I don't have to read the snide remarks dickheads like you come out with.

No love for Khan TBH.
Just objective in fairness

Re: Good Riddance Amir Khan
to be honest i dont like khan i think he is punching way above his weight calling people out saying things like he is beating pacquiao in sparring,sprints exercises and stuff like this,when freddy says things to him in the gym there meant to be personal to him but he just comes straight out in interviews and says exactly what freddy tells him. khan has a big mouth and i wouldn t like him to be in the same gym as me,just my opinion mickey1975Wrists wrote:No love for Khan TBH.

Re: Good Riddance Amir Khan
You don't have to like him but you should respect him as a British world champ.
His wins over Kotelnik, Malignaggi and Maidana mark him out as a very good fighter.

Re: Good Riddance Amir Khan
Haven't seen the fight, not suprised by the result.
What was the crowd like last night? Was there a lot of support for McCloskey?

Name calling, accusations of homosexuality, chatting about massive wagers you have placed etc etc.
Sure this isn't the current scene?

Re: Good Riddance Amir Khan
He is 24 and has quite possibly achieved more than someone like Frankie Gavin ( not digging him out at all, quality operator who will have a fine career no doubt, just using his popularity on here as an example ) will ever do and yet look at the difference to how each are received on here.Wrists wrote:You don't have to like him but you should respect him as a British world champ.
His wins over Kotelnik, Malignaggi and Maidana mark him out as a very good fighter.
I tell myself it can't be based on race everytime the Khan debate rages yet it's starting to feel like it could be the case. I'm not his biggest fan but respect is given where it's due.
He is no more than a European level fighter with world class handspeed...this statement is one of the best I have seen on this forum!!!
What next, Ryan Giggs is average because his right foot is only league one standard!???!!?

Spot on mate, boxing fans come away with bullshit like this all the time, as if blinding handspeed is not one of the best attributes a boxer could possibly possess!
The stoppage was premature and yes I can just about see the point that McCloskey might have began to press late in thefight. But do me a favour with the conspiracy stuff! Khan was handling Paul easily, is not as if he was on the brink of being stopped. In reality if the fight had continued Khan would have made a mess of McCloskeys face and been stopped a few rounds later. Seen in the context of saving a fighter from horrific facial damage who had barely thrown a punch, the stoppage was not outrageous.
From Khan's perspective, McCloskey made him miss with alarming regularity and he looked knackered as the rounds progressed. Hilariously he has the audacity to mention a fight with Mayweather after not being able to land a punch on McCloskey. If Khan ever gets in with a top counter puncher e.g. Marquez or Mayweather that'll be all she wrote.
Re: Good Riddance Amir Khan
Why thank you Yiddo14; My point was that though Amir has excellent attributes he does not box in a world class or P4P (or even PPV) manner. Everyone one his opponents has been beaten either through size/youth/speed advantage. No one has been out thought, he has not been in a 50/50 fight that he he has turned through professional guile. If McCloskey was a European level fighter and Khan a top World Champ he ought to have done better than win the rounds through speed and flurries.

Re: Good Riddance Amir Khan
I also said, on another thread; (about Leva Kirakosyan); that he was a European level boxer with World class power, was that taking the mick as well?
Re: Good Riddance Amir Khan
Yes; great hand speed is a fantastic attribute and it can also get in the way of developing other boxing skills (timing, leverage, angles etc). Khan is THE fastest lightwelter about but looks a one trick pony to me. Marquez is not as fast as Khan but with his skill and timing would have a field day; Khan does not seem to be developing the boxing skills needed to be an elite boxer, he is relying on his outstanding speed.

Prick,Dickhead and snide?
