    You do realise fighters are CONTRACTUALLY obligated to talk to the press before fights? Or do you know nothing of boxing?

    And did you even read the article? There's barely three lines of quotes from Khan. That's the opposite of talking a lot.

    I don't think Khan talks a lot, I think he is reported on a lot.

      The reason he talks about retiring early is because he, like a lot of Asians, is a momma's boy. He doesn't want his mother to worry about him getting smacked about and losing his senses or losing his health, especially since she's seen him getting KOed.

      This guy is fighting the best in the world and he's earning loads of money for it and his mother is like:

      "You don't have enough money now? Retire and put it in a pension fund or something...GODDAMMIT, when I was your age I worked in a factory for shopping money or I couldn't go shopping and get shoes. Reebok give you free shoes! Why you boxing?"

      You know how it is so a lot of this delayed retirement is for his mother, but it helps with his hype too.

        Boxing isn't like GOLF, or Tennis, where you have a tournament, and the winners take home the most money.

        Doesn't matter how good you are, you have to get fans, and a large part of this is promoting yourself with supreme confidence.

        Bradley has done well from himself in his last few fights, making more money than he has in the past, but he's an the perfect example of how the best boxers don't always have the most fans.

        I'm curious as to what is going on with Timmah.
        I believe Timmy is with his child right now and also trying to see what his next move will be..I think Timmy is one of those guys that promote himself in the ring,and by taking on the toughest opponents he can find..If you compare Bradley and Khan to Pac and May,Bradley would be Pac and Khan would be May..May will always be more popular then Pac(this is fact not trying to havea Pac floyd argument)as I believe Khan will be more popular then Bradley..There is something about Khan and May,their swag their mouth whatever you want to call it those guys know how to get attention..While Pac and Bradley comes off as nice guys who don't do a lot of talking,nothing wrong with that its just not them..

          First and foremost let me start by stating the obvious: MAYWEATHER WOULD SPANK THAT ASS!!!! I'll give Khan his credit. He has speed and is a talented young fighter. Of course having the mastermind Freddie Roach in his corner also helps alot. What Freddie can't train is Khan's chin, which is suspect at best. He is lucky to have survived the later rounds against Maidana. I'd hate to see what happens at 147 pounds if he gets hit by a Pacman, Ortiz or Berto. Keep proving yourself in the ring kid, no one cares about ur retirement date.

            Why all of these Khan future opponents updates. They seem to come in on a daily basis. He has to get pass Judah first and in boxing nothing goes as planned.

                lmao why you hurtin bitch? And where do you get the notion that they're contractually obligated to talk? It's their choice whether to talk or not and what and whom to talk to. It's a choice not an obligation moron.

                And the reason why i said he talks a lot is because he has a press release almost everyday. It's my opinion...deal with it sucka. What's with the girlie tantrums btw? Are you Khan's lover?

                  It's a smart move for the fighters but for boxing as a sport and for the fans it's dissapointing.

                  No, you're an idiot. And you're not funny. Just because a random boxingscene ****** laughed at your idiotic post doesn't mean it's intelligent, or one bit funny. You're still a loser, so go back to your basement.

                  On an aside, I can feel confident calling some of you losers, because some of you guys are just plain dumb. I'm not even talking about saying things that are wrong. Virtually none of you know how to write. None of know how to articulate anything with intelligence. And ****** people tend to be losers.

                  And Khan does not think he is the best thing to happen to boxing. Khan is far down the ladder when it comes to arrogance, way down in fact.



                  Why shouldn't that be his aim? He is not saying he is the best p4p fighter, just that he wants to be. Yet somehow this is acting like he is the best thing that happened to boxing?

                  What Khan has said, is something 99% of boxers in his position say. So please Perez, try using that tiny mexi**** brain of yours.
                  mike tyson, david beckam for example are thick as thieves yet thier multi million pound careers would disagree with your above comment about being ****** makes you a loser well done you clever cloggs .!!
