thats because berto was beating the **** out of khan in spariing. confirmed by abner mares and andre ward
Link to both of them please.
I would love to hear Andre on the subject.
So I beg of you to please give the link.
when the only guy who really ducked you was floyd you can't say you're one of boxing's most feared opponents.
his style is unique so that makes certain guys avoid it. that's about it.
Guys that avoided Khan: In that order
JMM
Bradley
DSG
Floyd Jr.
Manny
Cotto
if i recall correctly it was a 55-45 split in favor of canelo, so around 15 million...
If you are giving the right percentages of splits, than Canelo will be making less than Khan, by very slight margin. Subtract the £2 million from Boxnation. AK gets £7 mill from US, roughly. Than according to percentage splits, Canelo gets £8.55 million. Which when converted to $$, amounts to less than $13 million which Khan is getting.
what was your post or question ?
Here ya go

Khan has fought twice just days before Ramadan. Judah and Garcia.
He also said he'd never fight in September because of Ramadan.
That wasn't even his original excuse. First it was "Brook hasn't earned it". Queen Khan comes up with a new one every day as do his worshippers. Now its PEDs or ratings :lol1:
I was shagging this girl who was Muslim and she started laughing in my face when I asked if you needed a week to "prepare" for Ramadan. She said whoever told me that was full of sh1t.
That sums up Amir Khan.
If he has committed mistakes in the past, does it mean that he keeps repeating it ? These are khan's words, I can't post external links yet, cause of less than 15 posts lol.
"I could have fought Kell Brook in the UK. I don’t want to fight because of Ramadan coming up. Either way, I’d be taking Ramadan off. I don’t want to be going into Ramadan tired after a fight, going straight into Ramadan, fasting.
I’ve done that before. I’ve had a fight and I’ve gone straight into Ramadan back-to-back. It’s too much for a body to take. Obviously I need to look after my body."
Mistakes? Judah was one of his best performances and it was a few days before Ramadan.
I have heard Khan's words. He's full of sh1t and excuses. His words before that were "Brook's not worthy". Then he brought up the Ramadan bollox when he signed to fight Algieri to try to stop the criticism from the fans. He needs to pick an excuse and stick to it.
Lying and using your religion to make excuses is actually pretty despicable and makes a mockery of his so called commitment to his faith.
Khan has said multiple times in the past that he can't fight in September because it doesn't give him long enough to recover from Ramadan but now he's changed his tune.
But he needs a week to "prepare" for it all of a sudden :lol1:
You are dodging it I see. why don't give the source then
Khan didn't said 'never'. he said that for a certain year.
This year Ramadan ends in 17th-July, which gives more time to train then last year when it finished on 29th-July
The hate & ignorance is for real
Khan has fought twice just days before Ramadan. Judah and Garcia.

That sums up Amir Khan.
Please give me the source to that, Or better yet apologize for misquotes
I don't care if he cares or not. He clearly does since he was so hurt by the criticism over the Algieri fight, that he said it wasn't true before slowly confirming it again. :lol1:
I'm just stating my opinion. That's what we do here. He b1tched out of the fight because he thought he would lose to Brook. That's a blatant duck.
Yawn. He could have fought both. Instead he handpicked Algieri. Cowardice shouldn't be rewarded.
You would be right, only if Khan was not a Muslim or not observing Ramadan
In case you didn't know, Muslims have to keep fast(eating & drinking) from dawn till dusk(compulsory). Plus they have to pray five times daily(compulsory), plus 20 extra prayers at night(compulsory), plus some extra holy book reading for some extra SAWAAB(benefit)
In case he would have drained himself for Brook fight, than fought on June 13th as you take into consideration the date, 3 days after starts Ramadan.
And if he was injured like Frankie is, He wouldn't be able to Practice his obligations.
Come back as a khan fan, You were in the past.
All comes down to knowledge my friend.
"I think I know how to beat him and I'd be ready for him;" Khan told Mlive.com. "September, I can't do. That hasn't changed. But I talked to Leonard Ellerbe after the fight and I know they're interested. It just depends on the schedule," Khan said.

The bullsh1t and lame excuses are real.
Yeah okay no excuses, now that you posted the source, I will get back with my own
The article you are refering to is of May-4th
http://www.mlive.com/mayweather/2015/05/floyd_mayweather_manny_pacquia_10.html
After some days he asked the scholars about the situation that he is in, read it carefully.
http://www.premierboxingchampions.com/news/amir-khan-keeps-faith-during-ramadan
You don't seem to win this argument against me lol
Sure do
Just goes to show that Khan is a pretty big star if we're being honest. He's not quite Floyd or Manny level but he's definitely in the Top 10 boxing stars in the world right now (from any division).
I think these numbers will seal the deal for the Floyd fight. It's going to have a HUGE viewing audience, I'd say over 2 million like Mayweather vs Canelo, but maybe Khan can break the 4.4 million record set by May-Pac?
Records are meant to be broken.
If they market it right in the regions it needed be marketed, sure why not, They can sell it like: Best fighter on the planet is fighting a Muslim boy
They surely would buy to see that lol
Irrational ones always fall back to ridiculing when can't win argument
He "asked some scholars" :lol1:
In other words, he's completely full of sh1t. Lies and uses his religion to weasel his way out of and into fights.
You called me ignorant but Khan seems ignorant to his own religion! He has to ask "scholars" whether he can fight in September. The guy is a liar, a fake and a fraud.
It's all an act to get support from the Muslim community and idiots like you who will believe anything he says.
No I can't win against a Khantard because there's just no reasoning with stupidity.
He would have made 6 or 7 million to fight Brook.
He won't make that for Algieri and Mayweather combined.
Money doe.
Asked some scholars ? "I have spoken to scholars"
Any way whats the problem if he discussed with 'some' scholars. its automatically a BS ? wow what a logic
This year khan will have at least 56 days after Ramadan, & he discussed with scholars so that he will be able to start his training 'In' Ramadan's last 2 weeks. which gives him ample time for that one legacy fight.
I'm done with you, you don't have rationale
Hmmm
I think he's trying to snag us on a technicality 'cause there's certainly not a causal relationship here. I mean technically Froch's win over Tony Dobson moved him a step closer to fighting Kessler but I don't think history will remember any real direct relationship.
Maybe Uncle Al just can't bring himself to tell Amir that he doesn't have enough faith in him to throw him in there with Brook or Thurman so he's told him these warm up fights will lead to "something big - nudge, nudge, wink, wink."
Joking aside in terms of what Hunter is doing overseeing Amir's re-development this isn't too bad a fight. It's not a great one either but I think Virgil will want one or two more fights before he leads him in against a dangerous puncher.
This was always going to be taken slowly. It's a difficult task to strip away and relearn ingrained technique. His team will want to see signs that he doesn't revert to his old mistakes when he's put under pressure before really testing him. After all if Khan losses to anyone not named Mayweather or Pacquiao at this point he might not be able to haul himself back.
Now that's a very good point made right there, very rationale and logical.
Calling in Hypocricy
This dreamer needs to step up in opposition. Ouch sorry every time he steps up he gets beat. Prescott, Garcia, Peterson so really Mr Amir Khan needs to prove he is a decent fighter by fighting someone with a pulse.
If you believe Prescott, Garcia were step-up in opposition, then you are the one that is dreamer.
Prescott was a nobody, still a nobody.
Garcia was a nobody, well still a nobody really, unofficially defeated twice
Peterson, SMH, Roided to his tits.
Step up in opposition was: Paulie, Maidana, Judah, Alexander
I don't know How you got that much rep here on this site
I don't make anything when the fighters do. It seems to me that you forget what prize fighters are fighting for: the prize.
It's ALL about money. but even if it wasn't , the Khan fight is still 100 times bigger than a Spence fight.
Key word "IS"
And not 100 times. might be 10-15 times
This dude was an olympic medalist right ? Dangerous fight
Lol this dude is a Super Middleweight calling out khan at welterweight wtf...
Casuals don't know or care about weight classes. so yeah good promotional strategy I guess.
That would make sense if Khan backed out to fight another top welterweight but he backed out to fight..... nobody!
So now its a. Fact that Khan backed out yet he didn't even negotiate with them a fight ? Lmao
I think it was given after Collazo, who incredibly enough, wasn't even ranked by the WBC. :lol1:
Lying much?
http://www.wbcboxing.com/ratings/ratings_Abril2014.pdf
And Luis would have beat every single one above him in the rankings, but Khan
You clown it's in this article Stop reading headlines and start reading the articles
The WBC originally looked to Tim Bradley, who was at No 2, to see if he would participate in a final eliminator but he declined, according to the WBC. - See more at: http://www.boxingscene.com/amir-khan-dropped-from-top-spot-wait-says-wbc-prez--116676#sthash.US9EA149.dpuf
So before name calling like a emotional child, you should have mentioned name of TIM BRADLEY in your earlier posts so that we would have known who you were talking about.
I thought you were talking about Khan being offered the Spence fight:dance:.
so he never signed ?
He is saying Khan never signed anything so howcome he backed out ?
Three questions:
Is he a welterweight ?
Is he in top 10 in any of 147 rankings ?
Is he Coming from a victory ?
Since every one and their moma is unhappy about Khan facing the 140 guys coming from defeat. Answer these please
Garcia beat Matthysse comfortably, but had a difficult time with his KO victim Peterson. So, yes styles make fights.
No he didn't bro, He low blowed his way to victory,that's why Matthysse wants the rematch. you must have forgot, it was 3 years ago
I don't know what to think with Brook fighting in March.
Eddie must have info that the Khan fight isn't going to happen.
And I wonder why that is.
Eddie wants that fight in wembeley. And to do a fight there it should be around summer in England. Which is why fight is not going to be in march. Not Khan's fault
And what happened to the rest of 2014? :thinking:
And you like to think yourself as a Brook Fan ?? :lame: :wow:
He got the title shot against Porter. In March IBF ordered it for July-August
Rest of the year he was injurred :trink26:
Stupid and totally wrong comparison.
Brook was known in the UK where the market for a Khan fight was. If Khan vs Brook had happened in 2014 prior to Brook becoming champ, it would have still been a huge PPV fight.
Yeah but apart from earning big money, What was the reward for Khan for that tough fight? Zero
And money was being earned by Khan in loads by fighting other fighters therefore not much motivation for fighting only for money is it?
Nobody knows who Spence is in the U.S or the UK. What money is he bringing to the table? Brook is not Anthony Joshua, he can't sell 500k PPVs fighting anyone.
He needs a dance partner.
It seems to me that your mind is molded to work in motivation of the money. Guess what, money is not everything.
Thurman, Cotto and Broner would be good fights but are they going to happen?
How can you can you throw Algieri into that mix as if its the same calibre? That's a terrible fight but it looks the most likely at the moment which is sad.
khan will not fight 'Anyone' on June 13th bro
End the discussion
They asked him if he wanted to fight Spence for the eliminator last year that's when he declined and Porter-Berto was the eliminator
They asked him last year if he wanted to fight Spence for an eliminator.
So provide the link to the source
or be labeled as a liar
who he beat doe?
Currently no one in Pro ranks.
But if you go through his Wikipedia profile, He has victories over Badou Jack, Frank Buglioni and a controversial loss(Can be counted as Victory) to Anthony Ogogo in Amateurs.
Plus it will be quite a huge event. Even bigger than Khan-Brook.
Khan said in 2012 he'd move up to welterweight.
funny he couldn't fight Brook in 2014, but fought twice at welterweight in that year :lol1:
You're making pathetic excuses.
Excuses? Nah I am debunking your 'MYTH'
http://www.fighthype.com/news/article15882.html
Khan was BOUND by the contract as long as 24th of Feb-2014 untill Floyd announced
http://www.judiciaryreport.com/floyd_mayweather_announces_he_will_fight_marcos_maidana.htm
So come again
Where does it say the same purse?
"I don't see it happening right now,'' Dunkin told BoxingScene.com
"We've got too many problems with it. It changes every time I speak with Top Rank and so I'm not feeling too positive about it right now.''
"Options and rematch clauses and things like that. I'm definitely am not excited about that,"
"That's a huge problem and the money doesn't change hardly, at all. So there's just a lot of things. We've got other things for Brandon and we'll be announcing something soon."
