Khan dominates Rasha Holloway in sparring

[izmat]

Taken from the scene of boxing:

Conditioning expert Alex Ariza told us “Amir looks great. This kid is ready to fight Its like Manny after he fought Oscar De La Hoya. He had so much confidence when he stepped into the ring” against Ricky “The Hitman” Hatton.
Ariza noted Amir Khan is much the same after beating Barrera saying “ he’s got this whole different attitude.”
Ariza revealed that Khan “ dominates Rashad Holloway” the sparring partner of Pacquiao so much that trainer Freddie Roach had to get two new sparring partners including an African boxer with a 14-0 record. He said Holloway weighs 160 and “cannot deal with Amir.” Ariza said that when Khan spars Freddie “ puts him (Holloway) in last and he still can’t deal with him.”

let's see on fightnight. :yep

not sure i'm even gonna pay for khan-kotelnik.

[achillesthegreat]

I'm glad to hear it. I want Khan to win. He deserves our support.

[Darni187]

Cant wait for this fight, a 140 Khan could be a real good move , lets see.

I think fighters have to earn support. And khan hasn't done much to earn any support imo. I wont be wasting any money on this one.

[kosaros]

He earned our support after the way he came back from the Prescott fight. I am sure most people who support him on here (including me) took great pleasure in his knockout to Prescott.

He should of earned your support by going to the Olympics at 17 and coming away with a silver medal you ungrateful cunt. Of course he deserves our support. Good luck to him and I'm confident he can win.

Well they are not going to say "Oh, Amir gets hammered in sparring, he can't deal with the guys he's sparring!"

It matters on the night, in the ring, not in sparring. People try to draw too many conclusions from sparring!

Not that I disagree with the sentiments Tommy but why should he be "grateful" that Khan won a silver medal , did he give it to the guy ? :think

A fighter fights for himself (and his family) this idea that Khan (or any other boxer) is fighting for his country or whatever is bunkum of the highest !

Anyhoo , just something irks me a little otherwise you go get them kid !

[FrochPascal]

'earned our support' what does that mean????.

Anyway i quite like khan.

[HairyHighlander]

Thats probably the best post i have seen regarding the contempt and shit that Khan gets day in day out here.

Best thing of all its just like the Eubank scenario, the haters love him.

Good post.

Maybe the ungrateful means "we/us/him"

His reply was to someone that said earned "our" support.


Or am i reading this wrong ?

Rashad Hollaway - record

14 - 0 - 1 (1KO)

Sounds like the perfect Khan opponent

It should have been gold. If it was, then there's a small chance I'd hate him a little less.

Oh who the fuck am I kidding, no there isn't.

Spot on.

It a very tough fight.

[nufc16]

record on boxrec is different to the one posted.

won 10 (KO 5) + lost 1 (KO 0) + drawn 0 = 11

[pathmanc1986]

whatever the fuck his record is, we are being told this guy is a future multi weight champion and p4p contender, he should be slapping around journey men good pros


kotelnik is a fight im getin the increasing feeling like khan is overlookin kotelnik, and if he loses concentration for a second hes in trouble

[yesihavearm2]

Rashad Hollaway - record

14 - 0 - 1 (1KO)



Hahaha, even in sparring they get him light-punchers.

[widdy]

sparring in the most is to learn,not to knock fuck outa each other.although sometimes its a macho thing with em.
i loved sparring but i always performed better in the ring on fight night,i don't think we should take to much of this to heart.
looking forward to this,i think i will let burnleyblue buy this one,well he got the last one as well,well all of them

[Darni187]

Rashad Hollaway - record

14 - 0 - 1 (1KO)

Not sure HH

What I thought Tommy was saying was that the dude should be grateful to Amir for winning a medal while representing the UK as if somehow a fighter ( or any sportsman ) truly thinks like that. Top athletes are incredibly self centred , they have to be , and to suggest that an olympic medalist is really thinking " I'm doing this for the folks back home ! " is a bit niave.

And to be honest even if he was ( which he wasnt lol ) unless Rangersfan had asked Amir to go and win a medal for us , he still technically didnt owe him any gratitude. I'm getting into semantics now but you know what I mean.

This site is bad for breeding this attitdue of boxers representing something when in fact they are the most self focused amongst us.

You should give Khan you're backing if you like him as a fighter or I suppose as a person but this backing him because hes brittish or becasue he won a medal while in a uk bib aint what prize fighting is about.

What absolute twaddle. What the hell does he have to be grateful for, 'he earned us a medal'? Who the hell is 'us'? Khan doesn't "deserve" support any more than anybody else in boxing. Do you speak out for DeGale in the same way, or Audley Harrison?
It doesn't matter if Khan is Bitish or not, or if he won a medal or not, that doesn't mean he "deserves" anything from any of us.

HE PROBABLY GAVE PACMAN TROUBLE IN SPARRING ASWELL,BUT AS SOON AS THE HEADGUARD AND BIG GLOVES COME OFF AND GOES IN WAE A PUNCHER HES GOIN DOWN LIKE JELLY IN YER BELLY:bbb:bbb:bbbHATTON WOULD FUCKIN DESTROY KHAN ASWELL

[hoagy]

How many times have we heard the "talk" before...it's what happens on the night that matters.

Good luck to Amir who has just about every tool in the box EXCEPT one...his chin...and this is a step up & a genuine title fight and kotelnik may well test his chin.

[Mr T.]

too many jealous cnuts on this forum. The lad talks a lot, but he provides good value for money, puts bums on seats, exciting, has no chin, but i detect because of the money he has made in short period of time and fame that comes with it, folk cant take it....add that he is asian. Hes achived more than hatton and calazaghe in his short career and fighting a live opponent in his next world title fight, take note hatton and calazaghe and he aint fighting for wbu either....

You're wrong. The reason he's disliked is because he hasn't earned his stripes, he's on ppv, he's getting a world title shot and he's fought........who? Gomez? Limmond? Wow! he's achieved loads more than Hatton and Calzaghe! :patsch

wtf? the ignorance which comes from some khan fans only succeeds in fuelling the hate. achieved more than hatton and calzaghe indeed :patsch

i personally don't hate khan, and think he's got balls for taking this fight for with very little preperation from his previous fights (i.e. going from fighting blown up featherweights to fighting a genuine light welterweight)

[Farmboxer]

Khan appears to have a lot of potential. Time will tell though.

So in your opinion Khan is one of the greatest British fighters of all time already?

[David UK]

He should of earned your support by going to the Olympics at 17 and coming away with a silver medal you ungrateful cunt. Of course he deserves our support. Good luck to him and I'm confident he can win.


Well said. I'm fucking getting tired of the hate on Khan, most of which is to do with his ethnicity as even a blind man could see he has outstanding skills. It's not his fault his chin isn't very good.

[David UK]

You're wrong. The reason he's disliked is because he hasn't earned his stripes, he's on ppv, he's getting a world title shot and he's fought........who? Gomez? Limmond? :patsch

That's utter nonsense. He was hated LONG before he went on ppv or got a world title shot.

[mrbassie]

That's utter nonsense. He was hated LONG before he went on ppv or got a world title shot.
I don't think so. I remember most people being quite open minded before he started demnding big money. Besides, mainly I was expressing why I don't like him.

C'mon Kotelnik ya boy ye!! Shut kahns mouth up for everyone.

Take it up with Frank. If Frank called you up and said i got a world title shot lined up do you want it? and you were Khan (age22) what will you say?

1. Yes please
2. No I dont Deserve it yet

I'd take option 1. and everybody would hate me for it because nobody likes protected hype jobs who skip all challenges, drag up midgets to fight from featherweight and then get an automatic title shot for doing fuck all.
Shit, I'm being racist again.

Say all that you said is true, then Kotelnik is a good step up in class, and weight and is no blown up feather he is a real light welter that's like Khan fighting a guy 2 weights up from MAB. So if Khan beats him then what will you say?.

I'll say well done but I still won't like him. The damage is done. I already respect his skills and athleticism but I will never like because he didn't come up the right way.

[Mr T.]

GUYS I MEANT TO SAY THAT HE HAD ACHIEVED MORE THAN HATTON AND CALAZAGHE AT THIS STAGE OF THEIR CAREERS. I'm sure a no of people will agree with that..

[ryanm8655]

At the end of the day, if Khan progresses to world titles or even unifies a division/becomes a top p4p fighter then whatever way he came up is the right way surely...

Some of the comments on here baffle me...

[Darni187]

I understand where you are coming from, the fact is ****** has guided Khan though his career, and i dont think Khan has had much say in it. Khan has said it a lot of times that he would of fought Murray and Thaxton but deals could not be made, Khan has heart we have even seen that in the ring i dont think he is the ducking type.
