Thoughts on this?

It was nice to see some of the footage again from earlier in his career. But unlike earlier episodes of this series that were genuinely insightful (barry mac, gareth thomas etc) this was just a massive PR exercise.

Some ridiculous quotes included his camp comparing khan to ali more than once, and amir modestly stating 'if there were more amir khans in the world it would be a better place'.

I thought no wonder hes delusional with that team around him. "what amir did vs garcia was amazing".... if you say so. after watching that im not suprised he blames every1 else for all his short comings. they seem happier to pat him on the back rather than tell him how it is. "The Ali effect...the Khan effect..." I pissed myself when i heard that line.

I reckon he could be so much better if he had a professional set up.

Yeah must admit it was tough to watch at times. There is a fine line between confidence and arrogance. Khan passed that line so long ago it's just a speck in his rear view mirror. The guy is delusional. He has a following that will jump all over anyone who has anything bad to say about him. If you don't share their views and opinions your either racist, jealous or a hater. I'm none of these, I'm just a guy who knows when someone is a cock.

Who said what he did against Garcia was amazing!terrible attitude, he ignored all tactics and fought like he'd left his brain in the changing room, throw a combination then stand in range with his hands down and chin out, with a 'Hit me Please Hat on"

didnt watch. sick of hearing from/about that d1ckhead. overhyped from the start and got far too cocky, far too quickly. as a consequence has never endeared himself to british fight fans.
would rather he retired and disappeared to LA to pretend at being famous

one of his team was basically implying khan was outstanding for not getting KO'd immediately after he was 1st put over. to be fair hes never lacked heart and i suppose thats what they were getting at, its just not the type of thing they should be telling him.

He's a grade a clown. He also said something along the lines of whenever anything happens in the world he has people always on the phone to him as everyone wants to know amir khan's thoughts on them.

Washed over so many potentially interesting parts of his career or life so far, off top of my head...

- leaving warren after he'd rescued his career post prescott
- why he's felt the need to have so many trainers in relatively so few fights
- the driving bans and deaths he caused etc
- if his extremely strident views on doping that he expressed are not a touch suprising given the well-worn rumours about the wildcard gym and its marquee fighters, indeed including himself
