    I just don't think one fight is that big a deal, Khan is not a great option but there are some merits to fighting him because there is nothing else out there.

    Correction though I do enjoy Floyd but I will watch any boxing always, I really don't care because the sport entertains me. I prefer meaningful fight but that is not always in the cards but hopefully I could learn something.

      There's a solution to this. Fight Khan late December in the UK ( would strengthen his claim for fighter of the year and boost his standing amongst fans in the UK), then go ahead and fight a worthy opponent in May.

        And that's fine. Like I said, your not concerned with the integrity of the sport. Your just concerned with entertainment. You'd watch Floyd vs. 50 cent if they put it on PPV.

        I feel titles should be earned. I don't agree with spoiled brat whining his way into a chance to become the lineal welterweight champion of the world and getting to hop skip and jump over all of the fighters who have to fight their way up the rankings.

          Anyways, Floyd agrees with my train of thought so hopefully he sticks to his word:

            Unworthy dudes have gotten shots since the beginning of time though, usually as non title fight or optional defenses.

            You are getting twisted over something ****** and over reacting, that isn't even new. That is just boxing, someday you will accept this because nothing will change in boxing so either you will either accept the bull**** that comes with the sport or you will drift away from the sport.

            Honestly somebody mentioning integrity with boxing is laughable to begin with.

              How many times has Floyd contradicted his stances and been a hypocrite, more times than I can count.

              He does what is in his interest always, what he says has nothing to do with that because he will change his view on a dime if it benefits him.

                If you deserve a chance against me then I will give you it but not because you are running your mouth off.
                'I know Amir has been running his mouth off saying he wants to fight me but he wont earn a shot that way.

                So you disagree with Floyd Mayweather himself too. Can't belive I'm debating with a boxing fan that actually believes title shots shouldn't be earned.

                And I don't care what happened before. It doesn't make it right.

                  They can be earned but when a champion has proven worthy and has nothing out there they can do whatever. This fight fall under the whatever category


                  Oh and look above I don't give a shit what Floyd says because he is constantly full of shit

                    He always fights champions coming off of major wins so his statement is consistent with his opponent selection in recent years. And LOL @ title shots "can" be earned.

                      Yes but if he fights someone that doesn't meet that standard his words will change, so he will once again be a hypocrite. You know that as well as I do so Floyd big upping himself is to be expected, just like he will make excuses when he doesn't meet his lofty standards.

                      Yea title shots can be earned, but lots of times they are not and sometimes guys make good on opportunities like that and thus someone you have no clue was that good bursts onto the scene.

                      You have a very immature view of boxing, much too idealistic for the way the game is~
