Read this article on Yahoo sports. Khan visited stateside and spoke to Ray Leonard. Leonard said "you've got to come over here and crack America." Khan was quoted as saying " I want to build my name up in the States as well as here. I want people to know who I am, that I'm a good boxer and that I'm going to be a great champion." HBO is interested in giving him more exposure if he fights in the States.
Sounds like the kid's a hell of a lot smarter than I gave him credit for. Seems like he's got it figured out. Too bad Calzaghe hasn't seemed to figure that out, and that Hatton's just now figuring it out.
My question: How important is it for a fighter to come to the States and conquer the opposition to achieve greatness?
Seems like Khan knows how important it is and I give him props.
a_p_ ribafish: I definitely want to hear your answer to this one.
The article is still in Yahoo Sports under Boxing
