This is the problem with Khan fans. They know nothing about boxing yet pretend to be informed instead of just admitting they love kissing Amir's ass and don't really care for the sport in general.
First of Pauli was not Amir's mandatory. Where do you get off making up such bull**** that a simple google search will tell you isn't true?
Maidana was his mandatory at the time and he put that fight off intentionally to face the lightest puncher in the world.
Secondly when he did fight Maidana it was only because he was forced into doing so. If he were forced to fight Maidana (the interim champ) again he would vacate and fight some bum like Matthew Hatton instead.
Khan lowballed the hell out of Maidana to try to duck the fight every chance he had. Only after Maidana forced the purse bid and Khan realized nobody would take him seriously if he gave up the belt did he actually accept that fight.
So if we're being honest about it the fact of the matter is Maidana is the only real challenge Khan has ever faced and he had to be dragged kicking and screaming into the fight by his handlers because he would have preferred some bum like Salita or McCloskey or Pauli who couldn't crack an egg.
