He is a dick, looks like a fool and talks crap. Ok a bit of physcho banter before a fight is a good thing, makes it interesting. But he does it in a very negative way.
I think he can beat Klitchko though if he can get behind his jab. He has enough power and technique to knock him out.
But I´d rather Klitchko win this one, hate gobby gits.
What we learnt from Judah/Khan is that Judah will always be a could've-been. he's not a has been but a could-have-been. He COULD have been a great fighter. He COULD have been, easily, the p4p best fighters of the last decade.
Unfortunately, his legacy will always be a glorified underachiever. No discipline, no guts, always looking for the easy way out, inability to pull the trigger when it matters, always falling short in his big fights and forever looking for excuses.
In that respect, he's the EXACT opposite of Miguel Cotto. I'd even argue that as far as pure talent and skills are conscerned, he's better than Cotto. but because of his mental weakness and his excuses he's not in the same league as Cotto.

It was quite mediocre I thought, it threatened to take off in R2 when Chisora landed but after that he hardly landed (and when he did it was mostly on the arms) and Fury kept himself safe with the jab. He did look vulnerable at times Fury and his chin was noticeably out more than in so its hard to really know if another fighter would bully him more and crowd him and then take advantage.
As to C5''s broadcasting, well it was hesitant and a little disjointed but its to be expected after getting live boxing for the first time; hopefully with more fights it will get as good as ITV's coverage.

khan vs judahchisrora vs fury
thoughts?
I think Amir needs to fight someone on the way up at that level as opposed to Judah who, as good as he was, has never been the same since Kostya Tszyu embarrassed him with that famous comical knockout. I still maintain that Judah was robbed against Mayweather and that fight showed the calibre he was capable of producing. It does give Khan a decent name scalp though and can only do his rep good and hopefully he‘ll get bigger fights off the back of it and quickly unlike Calzaghe who was treated as if he didn‘t exist and was ignored until late in his career and then accused of avoiding fights himself when it was clearly him whdo was being avoided. I fear the same thing will happen to Khan. He won't be considered a big enough draw until everyone worth fighting in and around those divisions is over the hill or retired altogether. in other words the likes of manny and mayweather

I don't think we'll see Khan vs. Pacquiao anytime soon, as they both train under Freddie Roach. Khan vs. Mayweather could be interesting though, assuming Victor Ortiz doesn't beat him. And even if he does, a Khan/Mayweather match up seems semi-likely.
manny would murder him. and plus like you say it wouldnt happen anyway
a realistic fight would be khan vs marquez. but marquez would kill him aswell

Wouldn't be so sure...I've seen Khan and Manny sparring and Khan was leathering the **** out of him.
yeh but i think Manny is going easy at times. khan struggled against maidana who kept coming forward and putting the pressure on
. manny is twice as powerful and relentless.
it would be a great fight for sure
* yeah, i don't see any reason for Ortiz to headbutt Mayweather, he had him pinned in the corner, and the crowd was clearly rooting for him, he had this chance to stun Mayweather with a barrage of punches but he blew it...
* i feel annoyed everytime i see Mayweather's elbow when they clinch, i don't remember if he does this in all of his matches but i think it's really natural for Mayweather to play really dirty...
* i really hope Pacquiao would put an end on Mayweather's streak, KO him and embarrass him... 😛
Ortiz's headbutt was definitely unnecessary.
He was getting the upper-hand throughout the fight, and he blew it with that cheap headbutt.
Amd once again, another dirty tactic from Mayweather.
Those cheap shots should've resulted to a DQ.
The referee is clearly a dumbass; both fighters haven't even touched gloves. Ortiz clearly wasn't ready for those cheap shots.
