He only did that because Brook recently retired he was hoping for that step aside money, he's smart i will give him that much but didn't work out this time Khan.
Love him or hate him he provided some great entertainment. The Maidana fight alone was incredible. He completely changed the game for amateur boxers in this country, did tremendous things for pro boxing in the north west too with Gallaghers gym. Enjoy retirement champ.
Khan was a very exciting fighter. It's too bad some people will remember him more for his ego than all the fun and exciting fights he had, win or lose.
That Maidana fight was one of my favorites. Khan came out like a beast in the first round and dropped Maidana with a body shot. Then Maidana came back and gave Khan hell in the mid rounds.
I just wish he did more fighting, and less begging for big fights.
Also credit to Khan for showing a lot of heart in the ring. Garcia beat him from pillar to post, he couldn't even stand up straight anymore when the ref the stopped the fight and he still protested the stoppage and wanted to continue fighting lol. He had no chin, but he had a lot of heart.
