Which of these cases of a boxer ducking another boxer is totally undeniable?

[Dirk Diggler UK]

so how did bradley duck khan? you just said amir ducked alexander cause he was holding out for the mayweather sweepstakes...isnt that what bradley did?

Holding out? He was specifically told he would be fighting Mayweather in May. Bradley didn't fight Pacquiao till a year after he was supposed to fight Khan and even then, he wasn't first choice.

Khan is a bigger name worldwide and would have been a more lucrative fight.

Maidana was chosen because he's tailor made.

This is such bs. Problem is Brits have an inflated sense of their own financial influence. Maidana's 20 percent American edge crushes Khan's "worldwide" edge.

Food stamp box nation shit or more 70-80 dollar ppv's?..... I mean it's soooo hard to pick....

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Maidana is a fellow world champ at 147 and just had his best career win


Khan is 2-2 in his last 4 and been dropped 5 times in his last 3


the pick was obvious

Yeah the pick was obvious because it's an easier fight and he won't take that much of a hit in terms of PPV.

Turning down his biggest paycheque including half the UK PPV to face Casamayor for half the money.

guess you left out the part where he left his promoter to sign with Arum and thats why he ended up fighting Casamayor and then got the Manny fight he was chasing

Vitali ducked Haye?

It's the other way round, bud.

What 20 percent American edge? You think Maidana would do 20 percent more than what Khan would do in America?

what is wrong with ya'll man? seriously why are ya'll acting like this guy deserved a fight with Floyd? he GOT FLOORED BY DIAZ,BARELY WON THEN DID NOTHING FOR THE REST OF THE YEAR....

[Larry the boss]

What 20 percent American edge? You think Maidana would do 20 percent more than what Khan would do in America?

Maidana killed khan on the polls the only one he won is because he send all his twitter followers to vote,most of them dont know anything about boxing and he bought most of his followers. dude is a clown and it is sad

[Syf]

What 20 percent American edge? You think Maidana would do 20 percent more than what Khan would do in America?

The espn poll had votes broken up by states. Maidana was up an average of 20 percent over khan.... Maidana was winning in ALL 50 states.



That's the money poll. I guarantee you that was the most important poll to the bean counters at Sho and Mayweather's team too

All of which he could have done whilst also fighting Khan which would have been for all the marbles at 140lbs. Bradley walked away from his highest ever purse + 50% of the UK PPV in July (saying "what if I lose to Khan?" LOL). He didn't fight Casamayor till December and then fought Pacquaio the following June.

Khan facing Alexander in December and potentially getting an injury/cut before a May fight with Mayweather was not even worth it. It was Devon fkin Alexander - a no name beltholder. What money was there even in that fight?
