      I don't try to avoid it you always do in your haste to bag Floyd yet the irony was Manny ducked Khan and you fell in another hole face first, Ive been over it before and said the same things I don't change like you do every day, you Manny idiots don't know what they say from day to day.

          He never seemed to recover after that bad Danny Garcia loss.
          The Garcia loss and switching from Freddy Roach was the beginning of the end

              10-4 record against other titlists isn't bad at all. He has some solid names on that resume, even if some of those dudes were washed at the time.

                Well if you gonna tell the story, tell the whole story not just the one that favors your man crush.

                Amir Khan Wins Fan Poll on Who Floyd Mayweather Will Fight Next

                If boxing superstar Floyd Mayweather (45-0, 26 KOs) is going to stand by his recent fan poll, then his next fight will come against Amir Khan (28-3, 20 KOs) at the MGM Grand Garden Arena on May 3.

                According to Yahoo Sports' Kevin Iole, Khan prevailed over Marcos Maidana in the week-long fan voting that Mayweather announced on Twitter back on Feb. 3. The voting closed on Sunday, with Khan recording 20,105 votes to 15,474 for Maidana.


                Khan won in a landslide and Floyd still cherrypicked Madonna.

                    So why did you leave the story out of it? I know reading is hard for you like you proved in the Best I Ever Faced articles, but Mayweather was the original Khan ducker.

                      To answer the question, he's wasn't overrated at all. He has some very bad carrer choices, as the garcia and peterson losses should of never happened, he had no business fighting peterson, especially in his own back yard with the crowd and judges against you and your the Champ, very bad move. He should of never fought peterson. When bradley went to top rank and turned down a fight with him, he was the no1 guy in the Jr welter weight division, he had just smoked judah and it was talks of moving up to fight mike jones at welter for a vacant strap, after that the mayweather fight would of been pretty much a lock. Khan was at he absolute peak when he beat judah, it was his best performance, the mayweather fight a couple fight from that would of been perfect and something special, who know what what of happened his carrer would of likley been very different.
