Khan Chinned and Punditry Rant

I was listening to the Amir Khan fight last night on 5live, all his fights used to be on ITV then he went for the big bucks at Setanta so it was his first pay per view fight. Also he's got a new trainer. This is a classic example of British celebrity gone wrong! Hyped up, marketed, squeeze as much money out of the kid as possible, then his first ever fight with a serious hitter and he's down within 30 seconds, incredible really. I'm not saying Khan isn't a sick boxer, because he is, but it's just ashame he was turned into some superstar, when in reality he's just a regular boxer, for me Joe Calzaghe should be the super star, he is world class.



Andorra 0 England 2, the first half of the match was a serious washout! Still no chemistry or confidence at all in the squad, another example of players at a celebrity status not really fulfilling their role for the country! I do think they get a hard time from the press and the fans, especially when that fucking band continually play the Great Escape theme at every England game, nightmare, but I also feel they have no passion or pride, I honestly believe there's a generation of people in the UK in general who have no pride in their country (maybe the Scots aside), I think it's sort of frowned upon to fly the flag, for what ever atrocities Britain has caused in the past. Well it's not our generations fault is it!! we wern't there, so fly the flag it doesn't belong to the BNP it belongs to us. The GB Olympic team are a classic example of how to win for your country, they have over come all the liberal bull shit to focus on winning for themselfs and the country, so England and a team should too, other wise we aint getting anywhere competition wise in the next 10 years. Rant over, and thats my punditry for the day, I'm off to sling some inverts with my England shirt on....
