8. It will never happen again (nice crystal ball there Amir!)

Number 7 was a laugh-a-minute! :P

The others were to be expected of someone who has big dreams & have just seen them go up in smoke.

I think Khan can come back, but he's going to have radically alter his lifestyle & fighting style.

He's got to cut out the minor celebirty crap & concentrate 100% on boxing.

He's go to use his natural physical attriubutes (ie long arms & blistering speed) & become more of a 'boxer' type & stop trying to KO everybody.

Come on be realistic I dont think hes career is over. He took a gamble ( which you all wanted) and lost. Hes young he can come back from this. obviously he'll have to be matched carefully but to say his career is over is a bit over the top. HOWEVER I do think he'll begin to fade into the background and Ive said this before BUT I think Kell will overtake him and be Britians best prospect/champion etc.

Youtube is full of racist idiots. I think they should ban the comments box alltogether. This is one of the worst Videos of Khan fight and the most shocking

Why hasn't allegedly/Youtube staff removed these type of videos don't they work on a fornicating Sunday. I hope they are busy tomorrow. If not give me a job.

Hopefuly all the hype will stop now he's been exposed.

Took a gamble? Rubbish!

They (SN) had no idea.

They couldn't put Khan in with a known quantity on the domestic scene (let alone world scene) without a significant risk involved, so to justify the PPV (in their minds) they found some unknown, undefeated fall guy recommended by Khan's trainer!

Prescott didn't read the script. Reap the whirlwind Warren.

Kell will be exposed soon enough as well. He gets hit way too much for a top line prospect.

Kell's chin is a bit suspect too, although he may have enough to get over McIntyre and actually become British champion.

this was a horrible loss for amir...it will be hard for him to bounce back from that brutal KO.

he was a brave SOB though, got up from the first knockdown and had a good go at getting up from the second knockdown.

to be fair, lennox lewis was brutally KO'd early by mccall and rahman, yet lennox is still considered one of the best heavyweights ever.

re: LL, yeah wrongly!

achievements vs head to head against 'real' greats = "what achievements"

Jim, you could pick holes in every heavyweights record.

As for Amir, I haven't seen it yet - If FW had said he gets knocked out I'm might have purchased it!

However, he's always fought the wrong style. Too aggressive, too wild, too wide open. And he's barely improved.

I didn't think Prescott was quick enough to land his big shots - which just shows, I presume, how naive Khan remains after 18 patsy fights.

Would the odd Alan Bosworth after half a dozen fights have taught him more than the imported featherweight muggles did?

I've lost what little respect I had for Amir after his loss. There's been interesting reactions by fighters. Especially one from internally.

Perhaps Amir isn't as well liked within the FW stable as we thought.

Ive noticed that people mentioned about him needing to change his lifestyle? What does he eaxctly do that may affect his career?

As always be can all be retrospective experts on every aspect of his career, but lest we forget why he was so eager to turn over. Because he got dumped on his arse by, was it Craig Watson? As an am.

I've just watched it on the net - and the errors he made were fundamentals. Just dropped his hands, in range before throwing.

Yeah, Watson dropped him in the Ams. Haven't seen it, but I've been told it was hard.

Maybe someone here knows more?

FFS Emma will you give it a rest.
Kel needs a fan like you like Scott Harrison needs a bottle of Vodka.
What the fornicate has the Khan situation got to do with Kel ?
Leave the kid alone.

I was actually thinking yesterday that Kevin Mitchell should get a bit more of a promotional push now.

OK, he isn't top world class and he can be cocky, but he's coming off two hard fought and very entertaining fights (last one against a Colombian ).

The Watson knock down is available on youtube. He got hit hard and went bandy legged but he did get up from it and carried on punching.

Yeah, that video should be banned, because it is clearly racist.

And Inaccurate, the world he was looking for clearly began with P and not N, plus the shitty music.

And the irony of putting "white power" at the end of the video, obviously the dumb racist inbreds forgot that Khan was KO'd by a black guy.

He's a bit of a minor celebrity in Northwest England.

He makes guest start appearances at various functions & to be fair to him, he does a lot of charity work etc.

Maybe he needs to go down the Joe Calzaghe road & focus solely on boxing?

Khan should have been thrown out for this infringement last time out?

Did it twice and landed flush in the same round if I recall.

Seriously, As if Khan set fire to the Union Jack or something. Friggin' inbreds

youtube is dreadful for this kind of thing, just look at any clip that has someone black or asian or whatever in it and watch middle america fill up 9 pages in 30 minutes with racist bile
