I dont know, i think it was more of a point issue and respect thing with Marquez ya know. They have the same promoter, and he hears GBP praising him, and all of a sudden they want him to fight him. I dont think Marquez like being on the B-side of things ya know. I would love to fight Williams, but definitely not at 147. Yo where can I find the video of the Floyd commercial that came on today during the All-star game, I see it in you sig, i heard about it but didnt catch it

green - ward is the least intriguing of round 2 still good but i think dirrel l- abraham cause of the styles, and froch- kessler cause of the potential war are getting me more excitied.Comment

Just to clear things up he's a titlist, not a champion.Amir won an olympic silver medal at Athens at the age of 17. What were you doing at the age of 17, Ishe? Amir became world champion at the age of 22. What were you doing at the age of 22, Ishe? Amir already made millions of dollars in just 23 fights, how much money did you earn in 23 fights, Ishe?
I'm not hating on you ishe, I think you are a great fighter (The best boxer in The Contender ) but Amir is breaking records, achievement wise and money wise. No wonder he gets alot of media exposure and no wonder people invest alot of money in him.
I know boxing ain't what it used to be but dont make it sound like it's all Amir Khan's fault.
And what are these recrods that he's breaking?Comment

I never said he wasnt good, or he couldnt fight. Here is a guy who was stretched in one round a few fights back. All I am saying is the hype job is getting a little overboard, and trust me he will struggle with Paulie. He hasnt beaten anyone yet in my book. Still needs some more test before I start hyping himAmir won an olympic silver medal at Athens at the age of 17. What were you doing at the age of 17, Ishe?

I dont know if I like Kessler vs. Froch, that one could be a snoozer. I do like Green vs Ward though, for some reason I think thats going to be a good oneComment

does that not say something about khan. he got ktfo in 1 round and how did he respond, did he go into a shell? did he dissapear? NO, he has come back stronger, got a good trainer, got a title,I never said he wasnt good, or he couldnt fight. Here is a guy who was stretched in one round a few fights back. All I am saying is the hype job is getting a little overboard, and trust me he will struggle with Paulie. He hasnt beaten anyone yet in my book. Still needs some more test before I start hyping him
the only thing he hasnt got is respect, and he will never get that.
you sound just like carl froch, john murray and other british boxers who hated khan and appeared to be jealous of the attention, money, hype that khan was getting at such a young age.Comment

not even man, i am not jealous of anyone, but would rather see someone like tin bradley getting all this attentionComment

it would be nice if boxers like tim got the attention and rewarded for their achievements
but we live in a world where the people who attract the biggest crowds/money get rewarded regardless of their achievements to date
unfortunately boxing is not only a sport, it is also a business, and usually the business decission takes precedence over the sporting one
its not fair but its not going to change any time soon, unless gbp, top rank, hbo, etc, grow a heartComment

for a moment i thought i was on boxingnew24... what's with laying into Khan, the kid is exciting and brings a huge fan base, if Khan did not exist Bradley would still be a no body, because he is on showtime WTF and is BORING, no perosonality, no chrisma, no attraction and brings no money to the table!Comment
