Comments Thread For: Amir Khan Admits To Targeting Fights With Less Risk?

[Fenom]

wow.. what an idiot

[talz]

But if khan has said this, then why did he say before in many interviews on camera that he wants bradley, maidana etc next....... I don't believe this interview came out of amirs mouth. Also why would he degrade Oscar thats his promoter :/

[LeadUppercut]

I completly agree. Except for Whititker and Camacho. They were towards the end of there career. Khan must me talking about Oscar's fight with Chavez.

Most notable fighters will have an old champion or two in their resume'.

Prolly hard to find one that doesn't.

[LeadUppercut]

well at least Khan's honest about it, nearly all fighters do it, only gutsy warriors like Froch, Cotto, Pacquiao and Hatton will fight anyone

Yeah, but I can't remember ever hearing anyone admit it

It's a common trend and knowledge that Freddie Roach's "fighters" pick and choose opponents at the end of their careers-if they can get a few more advantages in negotiations as well,then all the better! lol
Hell Manny Pacquiao has made a "legacy" off of this tactic!

Can you explain me the fighters that he cherry picked. Can you tell me the "advantage" he had against other fighters. You are dellusional if you think he cherry picked Oscar, Cotto, Clottey. You may have a point about Diaz, but that was just an interim fight. Every elite fighter has one... Go back to reading comic books, kid.

At least Khan is being honest for once.We get all this talk about him wanting to fight the best Bradley, Mayweather and Manny etc but he ducks Maidana and has cherry picked his entire career. All he has said is what anyone with half a brain has worked out already. Personally despite stating he is a cherry picker I have more respect for Khan now because of his honesty. The truth is he can't cut it at the highest level but has enough of a gullible fan base to keep his charade going and keep the money coming in.

BTW bro.....
Froch continually called out Calzaghe until he retired at age 36, Cotto fought Mosley when he was 36, Pacquiao fought De La Hoya when he was 36, and Hatton fought JLC when he was 71

Jus kiddin you're right of course.

But every notable fighter has an old dog or two on their resume'.

So are you telling me Freddie Roach didn't say "Oscar cannot pull the trigger anymore" (not to mention he drained Oscar so badly he had iv marks from attempting to rehydrate,and wasn't allowed to weigh more on fight night),then Freddie also said he wanted Cotto because he knew Cotto wasn't the same (and they made him weigh less for his title than he felt comfortable-(he wasn't at that weight for 3 years).Tell me Hatton looked the same after he got ko'd by Floyd...Hatton almost got ko'd against the feather fisted Lazcano afterwards,and Clottey....he needs no excuse.
Do you remember what Freddie said about fighting Shane??? They wouldn't because "he was too good"!!!!
Yes,every fighter has the odd "end-of the career" fighter, but Pacquiao's resume is littered with them,and you have obviously bought into the hype.
Go use Manny posters as a centerfold you fool.
