Comments Thread For: Amir Khan on Facing Morales, Prescott Rematch, More

boxing is funny they tryna give morales a belt so khan can get it and make money at the same time.....lol fight prescott and avenge that loss if he gets past his next fight it's promotion behind that...if prescott lose then fight morales for a cheesy belt but i won't watch...cant see morales get beat up

Amir, forget about fighting Bradley (he's afraid of losing to you.) Morales isn't a bad fight, but there are better options out there. Focus on Prescott (and beat him, of course) to put that loss behind you for good. Or fight Maidana to beat him in an even more convincing fashion.

Beating morales and Judah does nothing for khan? How about it helps him to unify and become WBA WBC and IBF champ of the world? I know you Bradley fans have got a bit of a sore arse from the ass pounding Bradley has forced you to take but please post with common sense! Also I love the way Bradley fanboys like to include Peterson and holt as major contenders? Hahaha only cuz there on duckys resume! Judah is no champion maybe champion of fitness and workout or getting his ass kicked in every major fight he's been in. And Morales does not own a belt I think the guy has only fought at jr. ww two or three times the only thing Morales is a champion of right now is being a has-been and washed-up. Don't let these 101 and belts in each weight division fool you. Not a big fan of Con and don't like head butt Bradley at all!!!!!!!!!!!!

1prodz, I don't know if you've read about Amir Khan basically bending over backwards to get Timothy Bradley in the Ring, when Tim was universally recognized as the #1 140 pounder in the world. It was Tim who declined the fight, for his own reasons. That shows that your "golden girl" statement is ridiculous. Also, you are saying that the Zab Judah domination didn't earn him any respect, and you are asking him to fight Kendall Holt? Huh? -- LeadUppercut, most boxing experts state that Amir is worlds above Prescott at this point. However, I disagree with you that he is irrelevant to Amir Khan. He still remains as the only man to defeat Amir, and by incredible fashion. With that said, Khan should use his December date to get rid of Prescott. Bradley likely won't be available, so I think he should use that slot to get his revenge. Of course I would like him to face the Maidana/Guererro winner over Prescott, but he should silence those critics who always bring up Bredis' name when speaking of Khan's legacy. (He should've fought Prescott instead of McCloskey. That McCloskey fight was a waste of time.) I'm not a big Khan fan and I could care even less about Timmy Bradley I don't like him at all(the head butt king). Yeah I know that fighting Kendall Holt would not be the smartest move because of his limited fan base and him being an ESPN fighter but Kendall Holt is still young looks to knock his opponents out just like Guerrero and Prescott. So if khan thinks he's this killer he should fight guys with the same mentality. The Mcclosey, and judah fighters were bull*hit and if he fights Morales that fight would be bull*hit too. I also feel that golden girl is keeping khan away from Guerrero because of his limited fan base and his risk to reward factor(Or rematch Maidana if he gets the lucky win over Guerrero). See if khan would have lose to Bradley golden girl could have used excuses like the weight was a factor or were going to move up to welterweight now and fight maynever, but if khan loses to Guerrero a Mexican guy with limited fan base his stock drops real low. And if khan did lose to Guerrero it would probably be a punishing defeat because Guerrero comes to punish you.If he would have lose to Bradley it would have probably been some type of bs head butt lost or some weak split decision(I'm not even sure that Bradley even beat CON), golden girl knows what they have to do to keep grooming there UK star pupil.

Stop rewritting history. Yes, I actually did have Zab as POSSIBLY the number three JWW. Regardless, ZAB was a BELT HOLDER. Zab also beat Mabuza, and Matthysse for gods sake. No one was saying he was over the hill, thats bs. Everyone, EVERYONE agreed Zab was a DANGEROUS THREAT. ANd MOST people said it was a pick me. Only reason you're saying Zab was easy is, because Khan kicked his ASS. Most writers are NOT going to criticize Khan for facing Prescott, are you insane? Most writers feel Khan SHOULD face Prescott. I agree, only reason Prescott won was because Khan was a dumb teen who didn;t understand how to train. Current Khan would humiliate Prescott. This doesn't change the fact MOST people want Khan to avenge his lose, and that many people claim he is afraid of Prescott, so Khan has the right to disprove that. As for Morales, a lot of people might criticize elements of the fight, but no one will criticize Khan going for another BELT. NO ONE will criticize that. And guess what? WHo cares? Khan gets ANOTHER BELT, why should he pass this up? You still haven't answered this. And of course, it will raise his profile. Morales is one of the most popular active fighters, MILLIONS of people will watch Khan potentially win a fight, how could this not raise his profile? Frankly, Khan would have to be an idiot not to add another belt to his collection. And aren't you being hypocritical, being a Bradley fan? Bradley openly and repeatedly says its all about making money, and he says who cares about the fans? And you have the audacity of to criticize Khan? LMAO Regardless he was a belt holder and a dangerous Threat??? so in your eyes he's a belt holder you rank him higher than everybody in the division at #3 WTF..majority writers did not have this fight as a pick em.. if that was the case then why was zab a huge underdog going into the fight...? I don't know where you get your sources but got to be fooling yourself if you really thought Zab was regarded that high in the division..Everything you talk about is based on your opinion, it hold no weight, there are no facts.. bradley never said who cares about his fans. it was more directed to the people who are citicizing him for focusing on his business side of boxing than his supporters...

I'm pretty sure Khan won't hear the criticisms of a few random internet haters. Pretty sure earning MILLIONS of dollars, ANOTHER BELT, and A TON OF EXPOSURE, for facing Morales will be obviously worth it. At least, Khan isn't being a giant PU$$Y like Bradley. Thats another thing, even the twelve fans that BRadley has have turned on his coward ass. And at least Khan isn't sitting on his ass doing NOTHING. Nothing wrong with Khan going after a belt, only the MOST BLIND of HATERS cannot see it. Bradley is focusing on legal and promotional problems, but you don't seem to understand the business side of boxing,,, but Khan on the other hand is doing the best business move for himself also..tons of money, a belt and tons of exposure, but you seem to understand the boxing business side when it comes to khan...Im not hating on khan for taking this fight but he will be criticized for it...he not going to get credit for it

Did you really have Zab at ranked 3 in 140? Raising his profile massively i have to disagree...he may get cash and a belt but he gonna get way more criticism. Maidana will be out of the 140 picture after Guerrero is done with him. Prescott name will always be mentioned as long as khan doesn't face him, but khan is definitely a more improved fighter from that fight, can't say the same about Prescott. Most writers are gonna criticize Khan for taking a step back... Stop rewritting history. Yes, I actually did have Zab as POSSIBLY the number three JWW. Regardless, ZAB was a BELT HOLDER.

Khans doing the same thing? Are you serious? He just tried his ass off trying to get the Bradley in the ring, and he just fought a belt holder, Zab who was ranked number 3 JWW by most. AND he fought Maidana, and somehow this is the same thing as Bradley sitting on his ass doing nothing? What the hell are you talking about? You MIGHT think Prescott is a joke, but MANY fans are dying for Khan to rematch him. MANY fans claim Khan is scared of Prescott, and Khan isn't allowed to dispel this notion? You haters are all the same. Complain, complain, complain, about anything and EVERYTHING Khan does. Damned if he faces Prescott, damned if he doesn't. You guys make ZERO sense. Morales fight, he gets ANOTHER BELT, and a TON OF CASH, and it RAISES HIS PROFILE. Why would he pass it up? He'd have be borderline retarded to not consider it. Every other fighter on the planet would jump to fight Morales, so why in gods name is Khan not allowed to? And Khan didn't have to try fighting Bradley, he didn't have to fight Zab, he could've gone straight to Morales, but he didn't, so stop your whining. And its flat out idiotic, and WRONG to say Khan gets nothing out of facing Morales, when it would give him, ANOTHER BELT, a TON OF CASH, and RAISE HIS PROFILE massively. Yea, he gets nothing from it. Right. Did you really have Zab at ranked 3 in 140? Raising his profile massively i have to disagree...he may get cash and a belt but he gonna get way more criticism.

Please leave Morales alone. Maidana had vulnerabilities an old guy could exploit. He's still over the hill and Khan gets nothing out of beating him. Prescott loss is old news, but if Khan wants a filler fight, he can be it.

Beating morales and Judah does nothing for khan? How about it helps him to unify and become WBA WBC and IBF champ of the world? I know you Bradley fans have got a bit of a sore arse from the ass pounding Bradley has forced you to take but please post with common sense! Also I love the way Bradley fanboys like to include Peterson and holt as major contenders? Hahaha only cuz there on duckys resume! Peterson was the number 1 contender for his WBO strap when Bradley faced him, Holt was the WBO champ when Bradley faced him, they both earned their positions by getting there Its when Bradley faced them Peterson was undefeated, Holt was the WBO champ...can't say the same for Khan, Judah and Morales well past their primes and last stage of their careers.. both fighting for vacant titles, both of them only giving title shots because of their big names, when there are more deserving fighters out there.. Bradley can care less about belts, its about beating the bigger fish.. Khan deserves all criticism that comes with the fight with Morales...

But Khans doing the same thing in a way... 140 is a strong division, why chase after easy fights like Morales and Prescott? It's a joke! Khans doing the same thing? Are you serious? He just tried his ass off trying to get the Bradley in the ring, and he just fought a belt holder, Zab who was ranked number 3 JWW by most.

realistically who else is there? prescott - not an attraction maidana - too dangerous and too expensive (would prob. want close to 1 mil$ for the fight) guerrero - not too attractive, but he would be a cheap option ($200-300k) bradley - nowhere to be seen...

khan is going to fight morales next. i kinda see it for 3 reasons: 1/ he's gonna have that WBC paper title 2/ same promoter 3/ probably cheaper than other guys and a nice name to have on the CV

no...he said the mccloskey stopage was controversial. he said prescott shocked the world by stopping khan. why dont u go reread it? Thanks for explaining and then putting your ego along with it, I need a laptop to reread as am on my IPhone but thanks anyway...

I'd like to see Khan fight Peterson.

Did the writer said the Khan stoppage by Prescott was controversial?? WTF no...he said the mccloskey stopage was controversial. he said prescott shocked the world by stopping khan. why dont u go reread it?

I really hope Guerrero, Prescott and barrios wins because those are the fighters that I want to see khan in with except for barrios.

when khan goes to 147 i want to see him fight berto.berto will have a belt by then. if berto get the rounds in and quit fighting stiffs, i dont khan can win.

Did the writer said the Khan stoppage by Prescott was controversial?? WTF
