I brought up this fight yesterday and I dont hear anyone else talking about it. To me its a great fight for him. If he wins then it shows everyone he's a real WW. Mosley has the name to where Khan can make some nice money on it.
Now, is it a dangerous fight that you dont wanna take when you can lose out on a Floyd fight? High risk/low reward? Maybe so but I think Mosley's only getting older, his confidence is down, Roach will make a good game plan, and I think at the very least there is a good chance that Khan just outworks him at this stage.
Now would I be shocked if Mosley won? Ofcourse not. He's a legend and might have one more good run in him but Im tired of promoters milking guys & fans accepting it. No one ever wants to take that "risk" fight anymore. He can win that fight and no one is talking about it right now, which means that if he picked Mosley then I think alot of people would be surprisingly shocked by it.
You already hear what alot of media & fans say about him beating Zab worst then Floyd so imagine if he also beat Mosley. Then they would be saying what makes Floyd & Pac's win better and trying to put Khan on close to equal terms.
You have the Mosley-GBP problem to be resolved but I think Oscar is Mr Nice guy now with his rehab and if he isnt, then they would still do it. 1st off they would rob Mosley at the negotiatiing table. Mosley has no choice to but to take a crap deal at this point and he would feel that if he won then he would be right back in the picture.
2 is that if they still dont like Shane then they would love for there young pupil to finish him off for good. I definitely dont wanna see a Maidana rematch or Prescott at this point. I dont wanna see an old worn Morales who has no shot. Brook is big over in the UK but no one in the US cares. Berto is there but we know that is not going to happen and we also know Bradley wants none right now.
JMM will be out the picture after the Pac fight & the Ghost could be good but there is no way he's going to have 3 straight fights in 3 different divisions while beating Khan. Rios isnt going up yet & Khan would ice him anyways. The perfect fight right now is Mosley to me. You can do that here or in the UK. You can do it in the UK, NY, Vegas, or LA. This is probably a waste of a post though because I doubt it happens since no one is talkin about it

Why would anyone wana see Mosley after that pathetic effort/performance against miss pacman? A better question is why would you wana support him after that poor excuse of an effort? You can't possibly think that the fight is going to be entertaining so why want it.. Your just gonna see a one sided beat down of Shane. I could careless about seeing that..
Im not so sure Khan gives him a one sided beat down at WW. He's not Floyd and he's not a Southpaw monster like Pac

the reactionary bull**** on this site is insane
for the record the only people to beat sugar shane in the last 6 years are
floyd
manny
and cotto
3 HOF legends
its a good fight for khan
Mosley is a disgrace. It is no shame to lose to those guys, but Mosley came in for a paycheck and fought with no pride or heart at all in his last two. I don't want Khan wasting his time with a shell of a fighter.
Even if Khan wins, I'm not sure it does much for his CV. Judah and Barrera are already faded wins on his resume.
I prefer him to take on prime fighters like he did with Kotelnik, Maidana and Malignaggi.
Its more about Khan than Mosley. However, in Mosley's defense I will say that weve seen guys turn back the clock for one night many times in boxing. Not only that but he also only just lost to the 2 best fighters in the game. He could argue that a Berto, Khan, Bradley, & Ortiz wouldnt do anything close to that to him. He would argue that he wouldve whooped Zab just as bad as Khan did
Mosley already had his one night where he turned back the clock. He doesn't have another one in him.
It's over, I'm not interested in this. If he beats Mosley then he just beat a shot fighter with a name. He already has that on his resume a bigger name at that. He doesn't need another one.
fukk mosley. he ran against pac and didn't even have the decency to get KTFO. why would anyone want to watch him against khan? mosley will just run again.
Not Khan's problem. He keeps talking about Floyd and guys like Morales or the Ghost will not get you ready for that. You need a WW and you want a big name to make a splash & make money. Plus, there will be alot of people who think Mosley would still win or atleast has a great shot
mosley does not have any chance against khan at this point. not even a puncher's chance. you have to punch to have a puncher's chance. khan would destroy him. i don't think anyone would give mosley a chance.
Khan would beat Mosley BAD. I mean like really put the wood to him.
It could be a nice tuneup for exposure for a Floyd fight down the line though, I wouldnt want to see the fight happen though
Horrendous fight....... why in the world would you want to watch Mosley again? Even if he does win what's next? There is no way he's fighting Pac or May again.
Its not about him. Its about a good win for Khan that can also make people think he's a legit WW ready for Floyd

Its better if he knocks out Berto, even though he just lost than beating up on SSM
Now I totally agree with that but its much too dangerous of a fight if you ask me. You dont fight Berto when you have a Mayweather fight hanging in the balance. Alot of people think Berto suck but I dont. I think he's like alot of guys in that he doesnt have any idea how to fight Southpaws but I think he would look much better against a righty
Mora was bad but he was a Southpaw so I might cut Shane a lil slack. Plus he beat Forrest the 1st time before being outclassed the 2nd time. IDK, I guess Im in the minority but I think its a good setup fight. Its a fight that has no use though if people arent going to give him credit for it and it sounds like none of you will so its pointless
