amir khan, watched old footage

Khans a good example, speed doesn’t kill, timing does.

Well said.

The perfect tv fighter, bags of skill, loads of flash and plenty of vulnerabilities

I haven't missed a Khan fight. I didn't watch the Canelo fight live, but watched everything else.

There's not many fighters I can say that about. Whilst any conversation about Khan will inevitably mention what a monumental tool he is, it should also be said that he's been in some really entertaining fights.
All of his strengths and all of his frailties make for excellent watching.

I wouldn't say that simply because although khan has speed he has terrible shot selection and accuracy he might as well close his eyes , he'll jab if it lands he'll throw 5 more punches without looking at the target so it's not even needing good timing to hit Khan it's more let him throw his shots then throw yours after.

I mean yea true, but if you could time him mid throw, when he was flying in, it’s khans you’d have a chance to hurt him. That’s what mayweather would have done. Timed him all day, probably stopped or dropped him.

No doubt about it ,

He's only 30, still time for another run.

[lazboy]

What ppl are saying is true, he was an exciting fighter, pre hunter. Hunter tried to turn him in a thinker fighter or something. When he was with Roach or whoever before then he used to just throw, his offence was his defense. Just threw didn’t think, most of the time due to his length and speed it worked. Now that’s changed, he tries to think and it doesn’t suit him. Slows his output, magnifies his one dimensional defence (feet) and basically he’s not a thinker, especially outside of the ring.

Dislike Khan the man, but he was tremendously gifted boxer

Mentally not completely on it though. Should have beaten Garcia but he got sucked in by angel and wound up about what was going on. He wasn't durable enough for a war.

Few career decisions that weren't on the money, especially stitching up Kell Brook.

He’ll still fight Brook in 2018 - he’ll need the funds once his missus empties him in the divorce. The 4-5m will start to look appealing then.

I think the fight has past it sell by date Kell has lost 2 inside the distance and khan got sparked by canelo , it won't be that big in London and does khan have real boxing fans that go to fights? Brook is damaged goods now I think it might sell out a arena of 8000 but not a football stadium . it'll do decent PPV in UK if on at 10 pm but then nothing in the USA or if it's on later for USA TV then it won't sell that great here.
