Ye, about that, he's not british and he's a cheat.
@@richardgallagher4880 well you’re wrong on at least one of those
@@erelpc
Why?
@@richardgallagher4880 why? Cos his brown or muslim? He sounds more british than u ya numpty😂
Anyone brave enough to step into a boxing ring has my respect.
Stepping in is one thing and other is being a champion which is why we respect Amir
What a druggie? If you hurt some while using drugs as weapon. Should be prison@@Bilal-wj7bh
Amir boxed so many great fighters like Canelo, Maidana, Judah, Crawford etc He never ducked anyone. He deserves all the credit!!!
Tiiiii iiiiaiiime is on my siiiide,
Yes it is.
his fights were interesting af too.
He was a great fighter in his prime
trust the Fas---t
Absolutely heart felt interview, loved it, he’s an absolute gem 💎!
He's so awesome. He took his fair share of hard shots in his career, and he's still seeming mentally sharp and speaking very well. Hopefully it continues throughout the rest of his life.
This guy brought box office superstardom like very few in British history
He is a good man and he is brave he never ducked a fight love him
Amir is a good man. It took me some time, but I really warmed to him.
What took you so long ? 🤔
@@daaarrell15 I didn't like his 'white slag' comment. I thought he was a racist. I understand that people can say things in the heat of the moment. I like his Christmas tree pics and going on Farage show. I need no further evidence.
@@daaarrell15
Hrs a Muslim and a cheat
Yeh i bet it did ;)
It took me time too. I'm pretty ashamed of myself because I disliked him because of my prejudices. Judging amir on merit as an individual, he's a good dude.
The best Pakistani boxer of all time no one can come close to what this man has achieved what a brilliant ambassador for the Pakistani and Muslim community 🇵🇰☪️
Jawaid Khaliq?
Now Hamzah Sheeraz?
Amir was a pro for 17 years, so hardly early, he left as had nothing left after a hard career.
'Let's prove we're not racists by bringing amir khan'
They are in Bolton and he is Bolton's most famous sportsman and celebrity...he was also UKs best performing boxer.
@@daaarrell15FOR SURE AND BY FAR WITH DUE RESPECT TO AMIR .HE PROBABLY COME 2nd
Oh look Jamal is playing the victim,
It's someone else here proving to be the racist, Jamal.
“There is an ugly strain of leftwing thinking that posits having Conservative values is not compatible with being brown or black”
Sonia Sodha, The Guardian
Didn't know I needed this collaboration! But loved it👍
Good Interview with a genuine bloke.
🤭🤣🤣🤣
I still remember him in the olympics. Made his country proud
Always liked amir
Showed great courage in going up a number of weights to fight Canelo
Great role model
A great doctor.
I dont think he left it early imo, hes taken some real bad KOs during a stellar career, the miadana fight took alot out of him, say what you want about his jaw but the mans heart skill and speed was off the charts, im glad he hung up his gloves when he did, nothing left to prove and reached the top, he's up there with the best britians ever seen
This man single-handedly saved UK boxing, after winning a silver at the olympics, they decided to not cut funding for British Boxing and the rest is history.
Deserves all the success.
Notice how Khan was not asked any political questions.
Because he's thick as sh*t.
Why does that matter?
Don't cry
Personally speaking, as well as sport I would be interested in hearing his opinion about the accelerating demographic and cultural change within the UK. After all this is a political programme.
@James W So how does this qualify as news then and not just entertainment?
Excellent career and seems like a lovely chap, fighting in the ring for Britain. Absolutely splendid✔
What a good guy
I'm not sure you can say Amir left professional boxing early
yes is false, he probably should have retired a couple of years earlier
Great guy Amir. I want him to be a boxing pundit now full time on sky sports boxer and Bt sport.
Amir seems like a nice bloke
some of these guys in the background can't hide their disgust lmao
but some have a proud face like the man behind amir khan you can see how happy he is with khan success.
Real talk most of them were probably insulting him in their heads
@@slovesc.t.i.d4381
You can read thoughts now.
More surprising than when Punjabi MC featured with Jay Z
I hope Nigel has Naseem Hamed, Chris Eubank, Nigel Benn, and Kelly Maloney on Talking Pints.
@James W Maloney was on with Fox. I don't know if Maloney has been on with Farage; I thought they'd been on together, but did a couple of searches and it didn't show up.
@James W lol😂
Not Maloney though
I liked this 👍 👌
I like amir. Everyone talks about the chin. But he proved at his best he could take a punch (against miedana) wow what a fight that was. Good luck amir
I love the shows of Britishers. The anchors ask very mature and amazing questions. In our pakistani shows they asked questions like our teachers use to ask us in Kindergarten.
He didn’t leave early -he stayed too long
There's only one amir khan
He didn't leave boxing early. He did all he could do. It's not like he retired leaving lucrative deals or fights people want to see on the table.
❤
Amir’s a real one
Respect mate.
But Sir Farage - he missed the drug ban - I think that is the reason and it was so hush hush
You have to have the take the right drugs and not get caught
Did excellent out if the sport for a good boxer, not an excellent boxer but over achieved and over earned with respect to his ability so well done amir.. job well done
he in fact under-achieved, as his boxing attributes were such that he outboxed everyone he fought, including Canelo, he just got emotional in some fights...still no British boxer has matched his performances in top fights...he should have destroyed Brook too but probably fought him too late and while jet-lagged and shoulder injured etc.
Because he was banned from boxing for two years for dropping, unknown to everyone until today.
Right backward crowd in..thinkin 'who da f@@k is dat guy'😂
Left too early like the prince
Probably because his chin had the qualities of a soggy digestive
he was only ever counted out twice, one of them by a much bigger Canelo who KO'd a light heavy champ in Kovalev
Brilliant ha ha ha ha ha 🤣
Early? He retired at 35
Isn't Khan Muslim? If so, he shouldn't be drinking alcohol. Also, he's been ko'd so many times, alcohol can't help with that either. Probably not the best choice for a guest.
Do they mention the drug he got caught on?
Answer the steroid claims
Coz he was gonna get a two year ban anyway 😅
Average at best, never really dazzled.
He's an olymyian athlete(silver medalist) and former world title holder, how is this average at best? Amir Khan was an elite boxer make no mistake!
@@lmaoparkes3199 He did ok as an amateur in the Olympics.
Though the few times he was tested as a Pro, he came up short.
Fair play to him for giving it a go, though a Great he was not.
@@S-North Look I'm not his biggest fan by any means but I recognise his accomplishments and used to enjoy watching him fight, yeah he did the bambi dance once or twice but was a legit world level boxer for over a decade. Your choice of words were very harsh in my eyes for a fighter who's beaten the likes of maidana, zab judah and barrera.
He was outboxing canelo before the KO. So his ability as a boxer was actually truly elite
He is elite for British levels
What the hell is Khan doing talking to a guy that would have stopped his parents from coming over?
Anyway its just as well he quit since he just got a doping ban following a positive result after losing to Brook
I was thinking the same, why is khan on this show!!!
Was it to do with his glass chin?
Chinless wonder imo.
He only got KO'd twice in his career you fool...one was before he was champ and the other was against a much bigger Canelo...
Na to do with your mom's nasty face
A great lad
Step in kell brook
Khan was way better than Brook, much better performances from Khan against higher level opposition, Brook was fortunate he fought Khan so late and while he was jet-lagged and shoulder injured, Khan turned up devoid of all his abilities and still Brook couldn't floor him... referee stopped it early too.
@@ZaydDepaor stop being a bitter fanboy mate.
Khan's chin is world famous from his best years. 👌
The glass jaw was the reason.
He only got KO'd twice in his career you fool...one was before he was champ and the other was against a much bigger Canelo.
Clout chaser
Hating on my boy
Glass chin, crap boxer and hits like a feather duster i reckon thats why
So you really are that clueless about boxing and fighting? he was the best boxer the country produced, he beat 12 world champions. 'Glass chin...' which is why he went the distance with Maidana and beat him and only ever KO'd twice in his career, one against bigger Canelo. Please stick to whatever else you apply your stupidity and ignorance to.
Ask your mum that bro she has a glass v 😂😂😂😂😂😂
He has a 65% KO
I always thought he was a sellout, now I know I was 100% right
Because he kept doing the turkey 🦃 dance
He left boxing because he kept getting knocked out, simple.
He only got KO'd twice in his career you fool...one was before he was champ and the other was against a much bigger Canelo.
Cos he's got bad chin .....
So has your momi u bot 😂😂😂😂😊
Shouldn't be be sent home Nigel?
Nigel knows he's British and from Bolton so why?
Why? He’s British
@@zigzagnemesist5074 because Nigel hates foreigners
@@zigzagnemesist5074 Nigel hates all foreigners
@@aaronaaronson7600 first of all, he doesn’t hate foreigners, he just wants controlled immigration. He doesn’t say “let’s just kick them all out” only far right lunatics say things like that, all he wants is stability to the public services and less people coming and taking advantage of the system. Secondly, Amir Khan is not a foreigner, he was born and grew up in Britain, he is British. Yes he has Pakistani ethnic origins but he’s British because he grew up here and this is his culture. He would be lost if he went to Pakistan. I think he’s only been there once or twice in his life.
He left early because of a glass chin.LOL
Left early? You mean 6 years too late. He should of retired after that Canelo knock out
Deport.
Thanks for that Richard
Amir Khan did not come to the UK illegally. He was born in the UK.
So Why deport him?
@@jacobmojapelo2448 because Richard is scared of brown people
The ignorance in this country is insane
@SIB20 yeh GB news viewers don't wanna get accused of being far right then say shit like that. Can't make it up
Only 1 reason
he left because he had a GLASS CHIN
He only got KO'd twice in his career you fool...one was before he was champ and the other was against a much bigger Canelo.
20 year career though
Left it early?
By the end his corner had a dustpan and brush in it to sweep up the glass from his chin off the canvas, he didn't have much choice in the matter.
he was only ever counted out twice in his career
Diverse audience 😬
Cause he's got a glass jaw.
He was only ever counted out twice, one of them the much bigger Canelo...loads of top champs have been stopped or KO'd multiple times....Mike Tyson, Wlad Klitschko, Roy Jones, Nigel Benn, Tommy Hearns etc.
Amir must be desperate if he is giving farage an interview!
Don’t be stupid ! He’s loved everywhere he’s involved in good charity work man is caring
@@rubyblue4945 why would you give farage an interview??
@@SS-go4wi we all know farage isn a good person but there’s nothing wrong giving interviews , Amirs a good guy he talks to everyone
@@rubyblue4945 would you share a platform with a scum bag ?
@@SS-go4wi look I get it you can’t stand farage I can’t either but because of the whole brexit thing I completely get it but amir khan is simply talking about sports and love for Bolton there’s no politics here
