Boxing Chat & Discussion

Khan will continue to get big fights because he can draw a crowd. It does seem he has been found out though, his jaw just isn't up to it.

Khan is a pussy. He got absolutely bullied last night/this morning.

I know a guy who has a win against him in the amateurs. I used to take the mick out of him a year or so ago when he told me Khan has a glass jaw, telling my mate that he's matured since his days as a 17 year old amatuer.

Now he's 25 and is a very naive pro boxer.

I'd love to see him fight Mayweather. For the comedy value alone.

Also, he doesn't take defeat very well, does he? Basically calling Garcia's punch lucky. Face it Amir, you got absolutely ragdolled last night.

But comedy is meant to be funny Mayweather would destroy him and it'd be over in the first round. It'd probably put Khan in a wheelchair.

I doubt if Khan would even land a punch on Mayweather, he's too slick, quick and too fast for Khan. He (Khan) may draw crowds, but I think after the battering he got in Vegas, he now needs to look at videos of himself boxing and put a few things right once more. The R5 live commentator there is one flaw he has that often he boxes with his left leg of the floor or something to that effect. But I'm not surprised he has a glass jaw, now I fear it would be a long painful road back for him as Bredis and now Garcia have shown how fragile his jaw is.

Firstly,Kahn ain't no pussy,to keep getting up as he did shows a lot of heart.Secondly he definitely would land blows on mayweather,one thing he doesn't lack is speed,he would however loose that fight just like hatton.
He should move up a weight and take on Kell Brook in a good domestic showdown which would get him back on the world stage if he were to win,I think this may be his best option.

Khan's got a huge heart. You only have to see his response to getting tagged. The lad's a warrior. I don't buy the weak chin thing either. Garcia's first big punch last night would ko 99% of people walking the face of the earth, same goes for the huge shot Prescott landed on him.

He should've been zipping in and out, fighting at distance and ticking the rounds off one by one last night. Setting up the Mayweather fight in the process. He got involved in a pointless tear up with a powerful kid and look what happened.

He's got all the talent in the world. The only thing he needs to do to be a world champion again is wise up. .

He won't be champ again because he lacks the focus to keep to a game plan.

What he needs,is to get a good british trainer who can devote more one on one time with him.I know Freddie Roach is a world class trainer but he has got bigger fighters that he is clearly more committed to

the truth - Excellent point about Freddie Roach. He is one of the best coaches in the world, but like you say he can't commit the time to Khan. Khan needs to get himself a trainer full time who can dedicate time to him.
I think Khan does have a bit of a glass jaw, but like David Haye, it isn't the glass jaw that will put you down, it's your inability to fight and hold a solid guard. Haye has proved you can still be a good boxer when you've got a weak chin. Khan can do just the same.

Whether he goes up a weight or drop down a weight, either way Khan needs to forget about world title fights for quite some time. I would say one more consecutive loss would probably finish his career. If he came home and dominated the domestic scene for a while, that would probably be one way back for him. But is there a Briitsh trainer who would devote any time to him? I hope that there is someone here to can rebulid his career. what would be strange to see him go all the way up to SM and fight Carl Froch. Now that would be a fight that would have everyone talking. Quite clearly there is something there between the two, so why not let them settle it in the ring, even it it was for charity? I would say that in certain ways some of what Froch said was taken out of context. But If it had been me in in Khan's situation on Sunday morning, I would have definitely hang up my gloves. Two defeats in a row would have left me wondering if there was any point in carrying on. What would you guys would have done in that situation?
