Maidana’s letter to the WBA

idk if our big daddy or somebody else have already posted, but heres Maidana letter via email to the WBA an the fight against Khan and the belt. from fight newz Buenos Aires, Argentina, September 8, 2010 Dr. Gilberto Mendoza WBA President Mr. Gilberto Jesús Mendoza WBA Executive Vice-President Vía e-mail Dear Dr. and Mr. Mendoza, Trust this letter finds you and your families very well. The reason I am contacting you guys is to request the World Boxing Association (WBA) to ratify my status of mandatory challenger of the current WBA Super Lightweight Regular champion, Amir Khan, as I am the current WBA Super Lightweight Interim champion. I make this request in the light that Mr. Khan has systematically refused to fight with me for the last 10 months, even though he was well aware of his obligation of facing the Interim champion. And now, apparently he is questioning such obligation, so I would like the WBA to remind him. In fact, I have been as flexible and patient as possible during this period of time, as Mr. Khan, his team and trainer Freddie Roach have always cited different excuses not to fight me. On the contrary, I make it clear that I have been always willing to face Mr. Khan, who has made false statements on the media mentioning otherwise. Eventually, I got tired of this situation in which I had to read surprinsing statements on the news where Mr. Khan himself and his team tried to confuse the boxing fans and media by saying a bunch of lies, including an alleged offer that they made to me to fight last July, which in reality never existed, whatsoever. If Mr. Khan does not want to fight me, he must say it loud and clear in public and give away the portion of the title he carries and I should be appointed the WBA absolute Super Lightweight champion. Therefore, I ratify my willingness of facing Mr. Khan before the end 2010. Many thanks for your kind attention, Best wishes, Marcos René Maidana CC Richard Schaefer – Golden Boy Promotions Eric Gomez – Golden Boy Promotions haha somebody is going to get stripped hahahahah

belts don't mean much but since Khan is hiding behind his belt, take it from him WBA should strip him, but they probably won't

The boy wants as much money as he can get, this is just part of negotiation strategy. Why are so many fools gettin worked up, most of the letter addressed whats happend in the past but does not address the recent ongoing negotiations for proposed dec fight. Like I said, its part of strategy to strengthen Maidanas position in negotiations. The fight will happen

If Maidana of all fighters ruins another Golden Boy fighter that would make him an instant legend IMO. He really isn't that good.

Khan is a little chashcow right now and a british attraction a rising talented star and even Im going to become a fan of King Khan. doubt they will stripp him. so he have to fight Miadana. hope this is all show and they are just hyping up the fight to sell cuz if Khan really is a fukin lair and wont fight Maidana he just sucks. its not about the champ defending his title against his mandie, its about defending his pride as a champ.
