Missed it but did Khan say he asked Frank for a title shot now?

Yep, I think he is trying to appear keen and eager etc but he is coming across as cocky and arrogant.

He will feel the gulf in difference between the big boys and the handpicked opponents he has faced so far.

British title fight within a year is a more realistic target.

Thought Kahn came accross quite well tbh, seemed as ever like a nice kid, the bit about wanting a world shot was clearly bollocks but having said that all the hitting the pads while ross holds them strikes me as good PR for the sport.

You talking shit. Khan did not come cocky on that show. I watched it.

I didnt think he was cocky or arrogant either, but I had a laugh at his title shot question.

The only thing I will say is, can he keep the hunger?

He's keen at the moment, but I can't help but feel the trappings of success will come into play at some point.

I found it a bit odd Ross was heaping praise on him for being a great role model and example to kids. Strange choice considering he was in court not long ago.

Seemed nice enough though.

Blimey, Hatton looks absolutely MASSIVE on Soccer AM. He looks as big as i've ever seen him.

He fights in 12 weeks

Socca AM have just done a skit taking the p1ss out of Ricky FATton. He laughed it off.

A belly laugh no doubt..

He gets a double chin, but his torso wasn't that bad. He'll shift it easily by January.
