Let’s look at the Positive points:
Amir Khan was an Olympics silver medallist at the age of seventeen. Not many boxers can boast that kind of accomplishment he joined the likes of Roy Jones, Oscar De La Hoya, Joel Casamayor , Floyd Mayweather Jr. to win a medal at the Olympics.That was a phenomenal Olympics for the teenager, he was only seventeen.
By William Mackay: WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan (25-1, 17 KO’s) has signed a new four-fight contract with Golden Boy Promotions that will carry Khan through some of the most critical fights of his career. Unless Khan is spoon fed opponents like his last one Paul McCloskey, Khan’s career may be in a tailspin by the time his four-fight contract has ended. First off, Khan, 24, has a fight coming up against WBC/WBO light welterweight champion Timothy Bradley (27-0, 11 KO’s) on July 23rd.
By William Mackay: WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan (25-1, 17 KO’s) may choose to stick around the light welterweight division a little longer after his unification bout with WBC/WBO light welterweight champion Timothy Bradley this summer. If Khan gets through that fight in one piece and picks up Bradley’s two straps, Khan may next be going after IBF light welterweight champion Zab Judah (41-6, 28 KO’s) so that Khan could capture all four titles.
By Darren Munsey: You hear most boxers say that the main goal in their boxing career is to leave a legacy for their fans to remember. They want to be remembered as a fighter who will fight anyone, anywhere, anytime at any cost. We as boxing fans know that words like that are mostly hollow from several fighters in today’s era.
By William Mackay: Freddie Roach has big dreams for his fighter WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan (25-1, 17 KO’s). Roach’s grand vision is for Khan to beat WBC/WBO light welterweight champion Timothy Bradley (27-0, 11 KO’s) to unify the titles, and then move up in weight to the welterweight division and immediately go after Manny Pacquiao.
By William Mackay: Despite WBA light welterweight champion Amir Khan 24-1, 17 KO’s) saying he wanted to become a big star in the United States, he’s fighting on Saturday in the UK against a lesser known fighter named Paul McCloskey (22-0, 12 KO’s), who isn’t even a star in the UK. If Khan gets by McCloskey, which is probable given McCloskey’s slow hand speed and lack of power, Khan says he wouldn’t mind fighting his next bout in the UK as well against WBC/WBO light welterweight champion Timothy Bradley.
By Sean McDaniel: WBA Super World light welterweight champion Amir Khan (24-1, 17 KO’s) expects WBC/WBO champion Timothy Bradley (27-0, 11 KO’s) to try and head butt him when they meet up on July 23 for their unification bout. Khan plans on boxing Bradley to avoid getting hit with the top of his head like many of his opponents.
By Sean McDaniel: WBA Super World light welterweight champion Amir Khan (24-1, 17 KO’s) doesn’t have a clue about why WBC/WBO light welterweight champion Timothy Bradley (27-0, 11 KO’s) thinks that he’s running from him. Bradley was recently interviewed and he said that he doesn’t want Khan to run from him.
By Mark Hepplestall: The recent speculation of a bout between WBC/WBO Light Welterweight champion Timothy Bradley (27-0, 11 KO’s) and WBA champion Amir Khan (24-1, 17 KO’s), subject to Khan beating McCloskey is possibly the most exciting fight on paper which should exceed their previous bouts and catapult the winner into superstardom. However I see this as awful matchmaking by Timothy Bradley’s team because judging on his recent fights I am really struggling to see how he can win, is it possible that his promoter and team have given up on making Bradley into a superstar and are just cashing in and feeding Bradley to Khan?
By Sean McDaniel: WBA Super World light welterweight champion Amir Khan (24-1, 17 KO’s) could be facing unbeaten WBC/WBO light welterweight champion Timothy Bradley (27-0, 11 KO’s) on July 23rd in Las Vegas, Nevada if Khan can beat his next opponent Paul McCloskey (22-0, 12 KO’s) on April 16th. Khan isn’t intimidated by Bradley, and has already noticed flaws in Bradley’s game.
