Amir Khan: I can take Floyd Mayweather’s throne and be ‘The Best Ever’

THERE is a danger that during your prime years you will not face Floyd Mayweather, and you***8217;ll spend too much time worrying about it. Are you now at the point where enough is enough? Yeah, I think I***8217;m done now. The reason I wanted to fight*Floyd Mayweather*is because he***8217;s a massive name in boxing. If the fight***8217;s not going to happen ***8211; and now I believe it***8217;s not going to happen ***8211; I***8217;m going to have to look at other options to take his throne. There are big names like Keith Thurman, Kell Brook, Timothy Bradley, Manny Pacquiao. All those fights are 50-50, or they favour me. In a way I***8217;m in a position where I can be ***8216;The Best Ever***8217;. It***8217;s all out there for me to take. Hopefully now I can look at those big fights so I can take Mayweather***8217;s place.

Khan is already TBEIf I believed for one second that Khan was the best ever I would quit watching boxing. Khan is not even in the top 200 boxers fighting today. He is a better than average fighter with a very weak chin and he has become a cherry picker as well. The first time he fights a top 5 welterweight who can punch with speed, accuracy and power it well be lights out Khan all over again.

Khan is a massive bragger and that's it. He doesn't fight anybody good. The last time he fought somebody good was over 3 years ago when Garcia knocked him out. Khan was doing his usual big talking and bragging just before he fought Garcia. He said he was going to knock Danny into Angel's lap. It didn't work out so well for king Khan. Khan will take over Mayweather's place as the best ever when pigs fly. The first time Khan has the balls to fight a Brook, Porter, Pacquiao or Thurman his glass jaw will get shattered again and he will have another KO loss on his record. But nobody can out talk or out brag Khan.

I can't imagine a more atrocious style sitting at the top of the throne.

I don't know who the bigger joke is in all of pro boxing; Khan or Broner. It's probably Khan because, if God is true and just, we are less than a month to being witness to the final nail hammered into the coffin of Broner's joke boxing career. I don't think anything will top the beating Maidana put on Broner. The hump back in addition to Garcia brushing his hair after the fight was too much. Madaian took something from him that day, his pride.

I don't know who the bigger joke is in all of pro boxing; Khan or Broner. It's probably Khan tho because, if God is true and just, we are less than a month to witnessing the final nail be hammered into the coffin of Broner's joke boxing career.

Khan is already a better fighter than floyd with a better resume, that is non debatable. However, he needs to avenge his loss to Garcia and he surpasses floyd. BUT he is WAY behind Golovkin who is considered as the greatest of our time.

Paying of USADA isn't cheep. It takes about a $150,000 to do a $10,000 testing protocol. TBE Testosterone Below Epitestosterone
