I wonder if Matthysse or another flavour of the month fighter moved up in weight to fight for a title, would people say he "didn't deserve it" because he hadn't fought at the weight

Doubtful.

True, but unless Alexander's people doubt his ability to win there's no reason to walk away from a Khan payday for Soto-Karass.

If Matthysse beats Garcia he can say he is the best 140 pounder in the world if he moves up and asks for a title shot.

Khan can't say that.

It is not just the weight,it is the previous performances and there is no question Mattysse's performances are far more impressive than Khan's and would have a far better case justify a WW title shot than Khan. Even in his case he should have a WW fight or 2 before getting a title shot.

You clearly dont understand what leverage in buisness means.

devon hardly has any leverage. he has NO fanns, no one wants to see him fight. he is boring as fu&k.

They are trying to create leverage by saying this. Thats how it works. Khan needs a belt and a win at 147, so he needs Devon.Devons team is trying to say we dont need Khan.

Also i would call having Al Haymon in your corner leverage.

I would say Devon's dominate performance against Maidana was much more deserving than Khan almost getting stopped Multiple times by Diaz.

What had Maidana done at 147? Oh yeah...*** all!

I wish people would stop talking about this "deserves" **** as if it even matters.

[4Corners]

Infinitely more? So Khan just has to beat a couple of Lee Purdy's to "earn his shot"?



Maidana who Khan beat years earlier?

We're talking what have they done at 147.........not 140. Those are two different numbers obviously.
