The only proper fight Khan had was against the scots fella limond, wait till khan fights Thaxton or has a world title round his waste then you can say proven. Until then he is an apprentice with promise nothing more. Following a very similar path to Naseem and look what happened when he fought a real opponent.

Wont be long before he gets sparked. I dont care what the scales said, that was a super feather v a verging on (old) welter.

Gotta respect the speed skill and acuracy tho, he done good tonight.

Agree with everything but the Hamed qoute, he actually did have KO power and fought a good few top names.

He does indeed look VERY good going by the last couple of fights........................ and indeed he has fought ON PAPER reasonable/ good opponents

BUT

BOTH of these reasonable/ good opponents have not turned up to fight

You can argue that Khan didn't let them fight their fight etc, but I feel these two supposed proven fighters have been a complete joke

Take St Clair tonight............... I've seen more life in Uncle Albert................... and then people say............. ''Khan's great''.............. we'll see WHEN he finally fights someone who is willing to exchange

Ok then
That was one of Khan's better performances, however ST Clair is obviously on the way down and fights natural at super feather weight where khans natural at lightweight. Khan gave a good performance but you can not say he is proven after 1 fight. Willie Limmod came at Khan and hurt him and obviously there was the controversy of the slow count in that fight.

You called him proven, what has he proven? Juan Diaz is a proven fighter as he holds 3 world lightweight belts.

He is the nuts, regardless of the fact that all the recent opponents have been on the way out! They even said tonight that St Clair needed to win to have any chance of keeping up a career! I cant imagine for a second that Thaxton would test Khan!!

Khans oppenents have been handpicked by warren. Frank warren is scared to put his golden boy in with anyone who would give khan a hard time - Saying that it's only early days, but he hasnt done enough to prove himself yet tbh

hated straight away purely because he's english

the kid can only beat who is put in front of him

im sure he'll be the first to admit his opponent have not been the best but he's still starting out and working up sensibly

i think he has what it takes to be world champ

anyone else reckon he's gonna fill out even more and move up in the future ?

British boxer yes. English boxer no!

Most people thought the guy was a tool before the crash though.

He will do an Audley Harrison and he won gold at the olympics lol. he will fight nobodys and semi decent people or people on their way out but when he fights someone decent and he will lose.....he will start to slip away like all the other "promising fighters"

pmsl..the guy he fought was a world champ 18 months ago and has never been stopped in 47 fights

Khan won on points 12 rounds to nil

The guy looked rubbish because he had NO response to Khans controll of the fight with his jab and his hand speed. He was an experienced fighter who went the distance with Castillo, he could switch from normal to southpaw and knew how to use the ropes, Khan was mature beyond his experience last night.

He can only beat who he fights and a couple of the guys have been decent and he's destroyed them. He has punching power and a brain.

If you cant see he is a million times more likely to be a world force than Audley Harrison you really know fuck all about boxing.
