Haroon Khan (Khan's bro) turns professional...

I hate him already....

Just kidding.

Any thoughts on how we think the Pakistani Commonwealth Bronze Medalist will fare in the paid ranks? I never really paid too much attention to him at those games.

Cheers

He's rubbish.

Thought that. Had to join the Pakistani team due to not being good enough for the Brits.

Will maybe be the Matthew Hatton of the Khans

Good luck to the lad, but I can't see him getting beyond national level

Lets see what he has got before judging him shall we?

He's not very good at all, in terms of professional ranks - for fear of people questioning me I won't say why I think that, but he's not going very far.

What weight is he? Looked pretty small compared to Khan.

He was flyweight at the Comm.Games in 2010 but no idea what he is now, probably the same now.

When I saw him he was sparring (no not with me ) with the Bantams/Featherweights - that was about 12 months ago though, may have changed

True, but he did beat Selby to get the bronze

I dont think he will amount to much.

Its his tippy tappy style, it won't go through to the pros. You see amateurs that aren't "world class" because its a different ball game when the headguards come off - world class amateurs (Fraudley) become very average/poor pros, and some do really well.

He won't go far. Mark my words.

Pretty pointless post if you're not gonna explain lol.

I believe Windy used 4/10 actually.....is always the first thing I think of now when someone uses that phrase!

Looks like John Joe Nevin, Olympic silver medallist and 2 time World bronze medallist, is turning Pro and signing for Khan's promotional company. I'm not sure how suited he is to the pro game. Was put down a couple of times at the Olympics.

You're all haters!!
