Comments Thread For: Khan vs. Marquez Fight is Likely Off, Amir is Moving On

[John Hue]

how bout Valero/Khan

More likely the return of Oisin ***an. Get ready for a soft touch opponent for the padded Michelin man Khan as he astounds us with his first US fight. Mission accomplished Maidana nicely tied up,title in tackt ,Marquez gets blamed for ducking making Khon look like a hero. The gullible idiots will buy into it and the hype train continues. What a surprise LOL.

No Khan would rather wait til JMM is 43.

Khan should fight other young light welterweights, not old blown-up featherweights. There's lots of good ones in their primes: Bradley, Maidana, Ortiz, Urango, etc.

Good for JMM... He is not stepping stone... Golden boy was trying to do him dirty..

[S.G.]

They were reasonable concerns on Nacho's behalf but I think it's a bit rash to just call the fight off when Marquez has such a good chance at winning.

Maybe we've seen the end of Marquez at the highest level? Or they just want to test the water with an easier fight (Hatton?) before jumping back into the fray.

Okay, what the hell Khan!! I was willing to believe Freddie Roach about the Maidana situation, but this is ridiculous...Am I the only one who noticed that all of the fighters mentioned are natural lightweights, and they all have scheduled fights? Stop avoiding the competition!! He could easily get a fight with Bradley, Maidana, Valero, Peterson or any of the other million skilled light welterweights! Why the hell is he going after a washed up lightweight in Marquez and Campbell, an exposed lightweight who doesn't want to fight at 140 in Diaz, the lightest puncher at 140 Malignaggi, and a lightweight who never fought above 135 in Katsidis? If he really wants to fight a lightweight then he better get his ass down to 135, vacate his belt and while he's at it, stay there and maybe fight Breidis again. I don't wanna see him at 140 again if he's gonna pull this ****...

Great news. Jmm has no reason being at 140. Hopefully Arums offers Marquez a fight with Valero or Soto. Khan should fight Mallinagi, Holt, Madina, or Bradley.

Exactly. They already ****ed him with Mayweather.

Anyone who thinks that was JMM's idea is a ****ing idiot.

[Dynamite Kid]

Makes sense, JMM was about to get dominated by a younger,taller,bigger,quicker fighter.

Looks like Khan will have to earn his props the proper way instead of trying to earn it off the back of what another aged legend has achieved.

That ws his idea. HE called him out and pocketed Millions of dollars. JMM fans were scared ****less of Khan.
