Ive never been really high on this fight considering Khan has made his bones at 140 and he has fought sub par opposition since moving up to 147. I don't consider him top ten because his best win is over Collazo, who has not defeated a top ten ww in years.
Guerrero would be a step in the right direction but IMO...Cotto, Pacquaio, and even Kell Brook makes more since at this point considering Brook would unify IBF with WBA/WBC and Cotto is the 160 champion and a big draw and pac for obvious reasons
id say the same thing about khan. he doesn't deserve it and he has done nothing at 147
correct.
khan needs a win over Brook for his title then would get a unification with floyd. Or, if he continues to duck Brook, and all the ££s he'd make in the UK with that fight, he needs a win over someone like Alexander, Thurman, Porter i.e a real Top Ten 147, or Bradley, Pac etc.
guerrero is, or should be viewed, as just a another stay busy/warm up fight at 147 imo.
I have seen no real evidence that a Guerrero-Khan fight is happening. Boxing scene top headlines has said nothing about this fight and they would say plenty about it if it was really happening. I voted yes that Khan would deserve a Mayweather fight if he beats Guerrero. But Khan must win easily over Guerrero to deserve a Mayweather fight. Mayweather beat Guerrero very easily so if Khan just barely beat Guerrero it would show he is not in Mayweather's class and the fight would be a mismatch. If Khan can beat Guerrero decisively then he would be competitive with Mayweather and a worthy Mayweather opponent.
Khan Mayweather is bigger than Mayweathers last few with maidana and guerrero. I actually think Khan will cause problems for him aswell unlike Mayweathers last few years of opponents.
It has nothing to do with him deserving it and more to do with the challenge he posseses. Many of Floyd's past opponents didnt "deserve" a shot at him. Khan brings something new to the table. A style that we have not seen Floyd face. He has the tools to make it a long night for Floyd and that's why I want to see it happen.
I know you guys like to trash Amir Khan a lot but i think he has a pretty legit resume. Collazo, Maidana, Judah, Malignaggi, Kotelnik and Barrera are all good wins. You could also make an argument about him getting robbed against Peterson. You guys please tell me wich 140-147 (besides Pac, Bradley and Marquez) fighters at Top Rank have accomplished more than Khan?
Yes i think a win over The Ghost makes Khan a credible opponent for Floyd.
Khan has a good name and will bring a good fight however long it lasts :boxing:
but besides maidana whom couldve gone either way he started fast but faded judah /paulie were good for him at the time judah laid down idk why kotelnik who? Lol and barrera was a bull**** early stoppage on a cut that made khan look Better than he is and thats just what happened not to say he couldnt beat barerra he was bigger faster and had youth on his side but that wasnt a masterpiece performance to be given credit for but like i said khan will go down swinging reguardless but this take on all comers resume he and froch have isnt exactly true if you look at it but hey it is what it is

no way he gets by guerrero. the ghost is to rugged for khan
The ghost is garbage...khan uds him, there wont be inside fight in it where robert only has advantage....
If Floyd doesnt give the fans what they wanna see...Manny fight....Fuk who he fights next. keep begging. and you don't have to watch a mayweather fight although you always do.

Please explain how any of those fights can realistically happen next?
:pat:
Khan is already a credible opponent for Floyd.
Beating a guy like Guerrero proves nothing, I don't know what people see in Guerrero, the guy hasn't done much in boxing. He's a C+ fighter and not even in the top 10 at 147.
If Floyd doesnt give the fans what they wanna see...Manny fight....Fuk who he fights next.
Word. Floyd WILL become the biggest ducker in boxing history and it will provide for a never ending slue of comedy for years to come. TBE....gimme a ****in break bahaha
If Floyd doesnt give the fans what they wanna see...Manny fight....Fuk who he fights next.
with two fights left....for me it better be Pac-Man in May or sept.....I really don't care who else he fights at this point

If Khan gets by Guerrero would he be a credible opponent for money in May? | BoxingScene Community
