How can Khan fans say Prescott is begging for a pay day?

[STREET CLEANER]

Is Kevin Mitchell?

Khan hasn't fought Mitchell. What's your point since Khan is fighting the best in the world. And please don't tell me that Judah was a huge threat

[edgarg]

Manny got knocked out twice by non-descript fighters. Corrie Sanders was a 40 year old golfer on the verge of retirement when he knocked out Wlad in less than 2 rounds. Sergio was the favourite over a fairly unknown Margarito when he got stopped.

Plus these guys were more established whilst Khan was a 21 year old prospect coming up...

Sanders was actually 36-7 and in the best shape for a long time when he fought Klitschko. And his KO was really very much helped along by a couple of massive simultaneous .butts.

And it was TKO.

Kahn chose to fight Judah to get a belt, i think every fighter would do exactly the same in this situation. Kahn isnt fighting the best in the world but hes trying too, personally id rather seen Kahn measure up to the top fighters in welter than rematch someone who lost to as a lightweight.

Because hes looking at bigger, more significant fights. Prescott will always be there to fall back on.

Its funny to me, if you look at the consensus P4P top 10. A lot of those fighters have losses they never avenged yet never get the same amount of heat Khan does. Manny. Sergio against Margarito. Wladimir against Sanders. JMM vs John. Hopkins took 15 years to rematch Roy.

There's a difference... Khan possesses the arrogance to run around claiming he's the greatest thing in boxing today and has been stalking Mayweather. Martinez, Margz, Pacquiao, etc... don't go around talking out of their ass claiming to be the best and rather let the people decide.

On top of that... Sanchez isn't going around trashing Donaire's name... nor has Margarito of Martinez, Torrecampo/Singsurat of Pacquiao, etc. And even further, in all of those losses, those guys didn't get sparked out in 54 seconds.

Khan has slightly gained more fame since then. He hadn't fought in the states at the time of the shellacking so less people know about the Prescott beating. Has it ever crossed your mind that Prescott may be looking for easy exposure? Sure, it'll be a bigger payday, but only slightly compared to the first fight because regardless, Khan's star is much more than Prescott's and he'd be able to do a 70-30 type split. It's not a hard fight to make at this point... just not worth getting exposed on a larger scale, that's all.

Lol @ this thread

Why would you want a rematch when you already beat him?
You normally move on and let the guy you beat decide if he
wants a rematch. If he doesn't, it's not your business to press
for it. It's his.

This is just simply nitpicking. The situations are very similar. Those fighters have gone on to forge great careers without avenging knockout losses. Im not saying I wouldnt like to see Khan take the rematch.Im just amazed at how much ***** he gets in comparison to others.

Negro please. He destroyed Wlad.

When Amir is practically ready to suck Floyd **** for a payday????Damn avenge your damn loss son

You know, Amir is a big enough name to do fine in his home country making milllions figthing bums. I think he is trying to push his legacy by trying to get a fight with May, which is commendable. I see where you are coming from though.

The thing about the Prescott fight is that it could have sold and been a big fight with a history. Prescott was the one riding the hype after that win and he effectively threw any momentum he had out the window with those losses. Its only a personal fight for Amir now and taking it would not only mean less $$ but less prestige.

Lets see how he does against McCloskey. Maybe a fight can be salvaged, but at this point its a step back for Amir, a step he should have took a long time ago, but a step back.
