Despite a crushing one-punch knockout loss to current Middleweight champion Saul Alvarez last night (Sat., May 7, 2016 in Las Vegas, Nevada (see it again here), Amir Khan earned the praise and respect of many of his fellow combatants.
And it wasn't limited to the boxing arena, as Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) Featherweight champion Conor McGregor took time to give props to Amir for taking a risk by moving up two weight classes to challenge the much bigger fighter.
Respect to Khan.
Most established fighters these days look down the divisions for a fight.
