Good bit of business by Mr Khan...if hed of took the Brook fight and lost he would have nowhere to go...lose against Alvarez and hes still got the Brook fight...plus he trousers 6 mill...predictable result...but good business for Mr Khan

But surely every time he gets sparked out, the less he looks like a credible competitor?

 

yep

If you're getting sparked out by nobodies then maybe so. But when you're jumping up weight categories and fighting the best around I don't think you can say he's lost any credibility.

id give him more credit if he goes back and avenges his defeats by Ko or at least have a good go

Even though I don't think he should of taken the fight, hats of to him he never ducks a challenge. If it pulled off hes a legend but I'd still call him a true warrior ,he's always ready to fight and really you can't knock him for that. You have to through yourself into the lions den to be remembered and he will be. Imo?

i don't knock him for lack of heart, I'd like to see him fight presscot again

[pesky1972 5,376]

Brook or Garcia would be the obvious next choices for Khan if he can get one of them.

I slated Khan for not taking the Brook fight and thought he was ducking Kell. Now I believe he took a harder challenge in Alvarez so fair play. Would love to see Khan v Brook before the year is out. Reckon Khan would maybe favour the Brook fight having lost to Garcia previously.

Or that kel brook he tweeted whilst Khan was knocked out fight me. Which I though was a bit disrespectful. I think the sort of knockout he took was like being hit twice, first the punch and then when the back of his head hit the canvas. So it's good he got up in one piece Edited May 9, 2016 by stevo79

There was talk about a second fight with garcia.

As I think khan is the mandatory challenger.

How many on here would even be settled and disciplined enough to even go into a fight ? Let's be honest, loads of mouthpieces who probably could ,nt beat sleep.Like him or not Khan gave it a go

Couldn't beat sleep. I like that one. Lol. Completely agree with your posts.

 

It should be "couldn't beat an egg" and the other is "couldn't fight sleep" lol

anno that, but to go back and fight the man who kod ya, takes some doing, Joe frazer was that type of man , so was Lennox Lewis, as you well know, I just can't warm to Kahn just think he's over rated

I think you will find its "you can beat an egg, but you can't beat a wank".

Over-rated how? For the last five years Khan has been mixing it with the biggest names in the weight classes he's fought in. He's lost to Garcia (a solid and long reigning world champ), Peterson (who failed a drug test and was stripped of his belt) and Alvarez (who we've all agreed was too big and with hindsight a bad choice). He also spent over a year trying to get in with Mayweather. Who would he need to have fought or have beaten to gain your respect? Genuine question.
