I think most people were disappointed that he 'went professional' instead of going on with an amateur career that would have led to a British medal at the Beijing Olympics.
However, it was good to see him win his first major professional title last evening - and at a local arena as well (well local to me that is!)
I wonder if his popularity stems from his quiet confidence, but somewhat modest behaviour, and the fact that he somehow epitomises the belief that hard work, focus and politeness can still achieve greatness. Is it true that only the bad guys are winners? Amir Khan seems to disprove the assertion.
