Ahould Amir Khan go Pro?

[razor]

i think he should. it would be great if he won a makor belt at a young age.

[Gunplay]

Amir Khan is class, but same was said about Audley Harrison. The bastard turned out to be a shite PRO fighter.

[Zoidberg]

No, definitely not. When he goes professional he will stop learning, the priority will be to set up fights that will generate the most money.

He's already said he wants to go to Beijing and compete for the Gold Medal, another 4 years at amateur level will set him up much better for a long term pro career.

[JoeyM]

Tell me, is pro boxing a big sport in the UK? It was large here in the US for a while, but now it's pretty much lost all of it's integrity and is majorly starving for attention.

Well he is too young in my opinion, he will be 21 after Beijing which would be a perfect time, he'll have learned alot and developed more.

[mutu]

Only the heavyweight division is dead since Lennox retired but over here that's not the only thing we care about :confused:

I think he's doing the right thing by staying on till Beijing for sure the guy definately has his head screwed on, going pro at 21 still gives him a good 10 years

[7RONALDO7]

I think he sould stay Ametre for till the nxt Oylimpics then go PRO

[wixon]

He is, after all, only 17. If he turns pro now he'll probably just burn out. best to wait till at least the next olympics, maybe later.

What he said

Going pro at 17 would spoil is career and make him greedy

Couldn't agree more, he's too naive to go pro.
