Boxing Chat & Discussion

In the early of this morning,a young lad from Bolton was about to take part in what was arguably the toughest fight of his career.
Amir Khan was about to embark in a make or break contest,which could spell the end of his days in the ring should he loose,and with no bravado,talk of future opponents or predictions of Knockouts,Amir Khan took the long walk with destiny.
The atmosphere was electric,the tension and adrenaline was palpable,and the time was now.....
Ding Ding...and it was on....What Khan would show up? Nervous and tentative? That would be understandable considering his last outing,but no,Khan was on the money from start to finish.
Round 1...Khan comes out and goes straight to work,1-2,1-2-3,1-2-3-4-5 punch combinations,his hand speed was lightning fast,and he dished out a systematic beating from start to finish,and within the first two rounds,Khan had opened up his opponents face with fast accurate punching which leads to an 10th round retirement of his opponent.
By no means was this a faultless performance,he still got occasionally tagged,and with a bigger puncher it still would be a concern,but the biggest improvement was his defensive & offensive work which was controlled and precise.
Khan has clearly taken his new trainer Virgal Hunter's words and actions on board and with a few more training camps,can and should go on to claim another World Title,After all,Virgil Hunter does train arguably the best pound for pound fighter in the world,Andre Ward.
Hopefully Khan can have a good 2013 and reach the dizzy heights he achieved,once again.
