Promoter Gary Shaw is not impressed with the recent boasts from the tongue of WBA junior welterweight champion Amir Khan. Shaw doesn't believe Khan's talk of fighting WBO champion Timothy Bradley or WBA-interim champion Marcos Maidana. Khan is currently in Las Vegas and plans to sit ringside at the Mandalay Bay to watch Juan Manuel Marquez (50-5-1, 37 KOs) defend his WBA/WBO lightweights titles against Juan Diaz (35-3, 17 KOs). If Marquez wins, he is expected by most to fight Khan on December 11.
"Khan is a con. Every day he has a new favorite to fight. Trouble is, they are all Golden Boy fighters," said Shaw, who promotes Bradley. "Khan the con was KOd by a no one, and is lucky that Golden Boy has an out put deal with HBO. Or he would be fighting across the pond, and no one would care. Khan is a con -- a simple and pure fraud."
