Froch blasts ‘childish’ Amir Khan; Williams: ”We have had no approaches from Khan” – News

By Liam Santiago: World Boxing Council super middleweight champion, Carl Froch has blasted WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan again for his childish outbursts against the Nottingham man. Froch says David Haye may have to sit between them tonight at the BBC Sports Personality of the year award. Froch said in an article with the Daily Star, ”It’s probably a good idea David Haye is sitting between us”. Haye, Froch and Khan will be at the award ceremony tonight as Britain’s three world champions.

Froch went on to say, ”I’m going to leave it up to him whether he wants to shake hands or not, but I would rather be his friend than enemy. I will ask him what’s going on with all these silly comments he has made and tell him to grow up. All I was doing was commenting on his fight against Breidis Prescott. He got knocked out, so what does he want me to say? And I had heard his fight against Andreas Kotelnik was boring. If he wants me to be his cheerleader, he’s not going to get it. My fight against Andre Dirrell was boring. That’s boxing and you deal with criticism. But if he’s going to start crying because I speak the truth then he’s being a bit childish”.

Froch will defend his WBC title against Denmark’s Mikkel Kessler on April 17th.

Gareth Williams: ”We have had no approaches from Khan”

At every given opportunity Amir Khan has publicly declared his interest in fighting Manchester warrior, Ricky Hatton. The Khan camp claim Hatton’s style is ‘made for Khan’ and so on. So, it surprised me to hear Hatton Promotions boss, Gareth Williams state that Khan’s promotional company has not made a single approach about making the fight. So why does Amir keep harping on about it?

Speaking to boxing news online, Williams said, ”I can categorically confirm that we’ve had no approaches from Amir’s promotional company. So I can’t see how we can have that fight and it seems pointless talking about it”.

Hatton recently declared his interest in a final bout, or a war, as he described it against Oscar De La Hoya.

    Anonymous- What are you then toughman? I genuinly hope u and your family all die of cancer

  • Bill says:

    Man, Froch knows Amir Khan is on his way to great fights and bigger paychecks, and he’s getting very jealous…Amir should just ignore this moron..

  • anonymous says:

    OLI get a life, you dirty half breed KHAN HATER.

  • chef says:

    LIAR LIAR LIAR.. BE A MAN GIVE UP WRITING STUPID POST..LIAR LIAR LIAR… COTTO LOSE TO PACMAN LIAR..

  • Scotty says:

    But he was winning that 2nd round against Paccy. lol

  • Oli says:

    With mayweather it was the refs fault, then it was the welterweight excuse then billy grahams fault….with pacquiao it was mayweather snrs fault and the over training excuse!

    Hatton is average and got where he was because he managed to cultivate an extreme following in the UK. Nobody anywhere else in the world rates him as a top fighter

  • Oli says:

    Scotty- i dont doubt for one minute that hatton is total delusional, the mere fact he refuses to lower his sights and actually wants to fight marquez next indicates he still visions himself as some aloof top drawer elite fighter something he never actually was. And il agree also that for his defeats to both mayweather and pac, hatton made excuse after excuse and blamed everyone and everything else but himself

  • Hawaiian Man says:

    aloha……….Manny Pacquiao……The Best Pound 4 Pound King Of ALL TIME

  • Scotty says:

    Oli.
    Of course Khan has been pushed carefully in his pro career. Don’t you remember him in the Olympics? At least he is delivering unlike that donkey Audley Harrison
    And Hatton is the one who is delusional. He thinks whe ould beat Mayweather in a rematch and he blames everyone but himself for Paccy putting into orbit!

  • peplz says:

    Will someone please tell Carl Froch, the most over rated fighter in boxing, to shut the fruck up.

  • Oli says:

    So put everything iv said above, along with khans brattish and arrogant media outbursts, arrogant nature, his unrealistic targets and utterly duluded aspirations…and he IS deluded, then u have all the reasons u need to whay people DONT like Amir Khan

  • Oli says:

    Mark Fletcher- well said! spot on mate, basically people are bitter because amir khan has been HANDED everything on a plate, money, media coverage, title shots ect. When the truth is his talent doesnt justify it quite frankly and there are more deserving and equally good fighters not getting anywhere near the same breaks khan has been GIVEN not earned

  • Oli says:

    zee zee wat u talkin about? froch turned pro at a late age and STILL became a world champ before amir khan even without big money promotion, media hype and expensive internationnaly renowned trainers behind him. AND earned his shot the right way AND is defending it against the best in his division. IS amir khan?

    So to me Froch is better

  • zee zee says:

    Scotty 100% agreed.

    but to be honest the truth hurts, but there is nothing childish about this,

    one thing amir khan should walk through fire to get back at presscot

    froch licks david hayes arse

    AGAIN Froch was still an amateur boxer at age 24 so who is he to critize Khan?

  • stephen a says:

    khan will achieve 10 times better than froch

  • Anonymous says:

    froch is overrated

  • Ukansodoff says:

    forget it she dont want you, best thing really for you is to drink a big yummy glass of bleach or sometihng.

  • Scotty says:

    Froch was still an amateur boxer at age 24 so who is he to critize Khan?

  • el tsunami says:

    Froch needs to shut up! hes probably jelouse cause he is 10 years older than khan and is not as famous!

  • Oli says:

    Khans silence will be deafening when he comes face to face with the cobra!
    As for hatton..he wants nothing to do with anything which could be potentially embaressing and a loss to amir khan would be the ultimate embaressment to hattons massive ego who clearly still dreams hes in the elite fighter bracket.
    And Khan…well he needs to shut his mouth and not open it again until hes fought at least one current world class operator and won

  • madforit says:

    The conversation probably went like this…

    ‘I’m more over rated than you…’ Shouted Froch,

    ‘No, i’m more over rated than you!!’ Shouted Khan
    etc etc etc

  • jim bob says:

    Froch is living a self imposed buble… the guy has issues… on top of that he is the 4 or 5 best fighter in the uk..

  • quasi says:

    come on now! he’s only 22.

  • Ukansodoff says:

    Froch is very blunt in the way he talks and Khan is a bit oversensitive about things not said in his favour.

    It would be nice if they could both grow up a little and put this nonsense behind them.

  • b burroughs says:

    Hatton may be finished when it comes to the pound for pound kings,but against kahn it would be a demolition job with grat success.Khan glass jaw would be exposed and smashed into little pieces,and reality would hit home that he is nothing but a average fighter compared to hatton.

  • b burroughs says:

    Hatton may be finished when competing against the pound for pound kings,but against untested,glass jawed khan it would be a demolition.Khan has gotten a bit to big for his boots and listens to the hype,But he will soon find out hes very average.
