Khan = Wise, if I got the chance.

It would be like George Foreman making a comeback aged 64!

 

He'd give him a good grilling...

 

 

Knowing SH it would probably be a good 'roasting' with Swiss Tony as his tag team partner.

 

Chinning Wise is like making love to a beautiful woman.

It's hard, it's quick, you're satisfied and not giving a shite about the heap of flesh lying horizontal after the event.

 

:D

Might give Khan the wake-up call he needs like. The problem is his chin is definitely suspect even if that was just a good punch that was right on the button (which can defeat anyone). Shame like because he has fantastic attributes in terms of his boxing skills.

The first one wasn't all that great, the second was a cracker, but he was still dazed from the first I guess.

 

I guess his problem now (other than picking people he can beat, of course) is that others will now know they can put him down and out, that and I bet his mother won't be watching his fights any more.

His chin has looked suspect in previous fights, but as you say, this might be the wake up call he needs to change his style to a more defensive one, Thomas Hearns had a shite chin but that didn't stop him from becoming a 5 weight world champion.

What happens when you schedule fights against nobodies who he's going to have no problem beating.

 

He comes up against a fighter who actually hits back and he's sprawled on his arse in no time.

 

Fucked over by those thrusting him into the bigtime to make a quick buck tbh.

Was a good night for KO's, Rashad Evans KO'd Chuck Liddel with a peach of a one punch KO

 

 

 

Cheers for the spoiler, I'm just downloading it now :D

 

 

Sorry dude. :icon_lol:

Typical of the British public that he's now been totally written off in many quarters by people who know nothing about boxing btw.

 

Flip side to the hype-monster.

Aye. See Andy Murray.

the lad has talent, but his defensive work needed to improve a long time ago. his footwork isn't bad and his punching range and pwer are ok but he's not the worlds best, and will never be.

 

if he gets the defensive coaching he needs he could challenge some of the better boxers in his division. otherwise he's not going to be up to it.

Amir Khan will meet seven-time world champion Marco Antonio Barrera on 14 March at a unspecified British venue.

 

The 34-year-old Mexican is a former champion at three weights and has won 64 of his 71 fights.

 

"It's a big fight for Amir who's been champing at the bit. It's the right fight at this stage of his career," said promoter Frank Warren.

 

"It'll bring out the best in him. This puts him well and truly on the world stage," he added.

 

 

Last time out in December, Khan beat Irishman Oisin Fagan in his first bout since suffering the first loss of his career - a first-round knockout at the hands of Breidis Prescott last September.

 

The Olympic lightweight silver medallist split from trainer Jorge Rubio after that defeat and is now guided by Freddie Roach.

 

Barrera, who inflicted Prince Naseem Hamed's first career defeat in 2001, won his first world title in 1995, and over the years he has faced the likes of Manny Pacquiao, Juan Manuel Marquez and Erik Morales.

Let's hope he lasts longer than a minute this time...

 

Bet that's not the first time he's heard that in his life either.

 

An issue close to your heart Brockles? :devil:
