Comments Thread For: Khan: You Have To Box Mayweather at His Own Game

[richardt]

I thought that such a fight would not be about Khan, but about getting a big payday at the Wembley stadium... (I don't see any point in a Vegas fight with AK.)

No way Mayweather is going to Wembley, not after what CJ Ross did to him in his own backyard. But I get your point, financially it makes the most sense.

How did garcia duck mayweather?

On national TV he and his father spoke of plans to go to 147 but said they did not want to fight Mayweather. Granted, it was good to see that they didn't just want the money, but it does look like they flat out turned down Mayweather. Maybe if dollars are flashed, they will change their minds. I have a ton of respect for Garcia and when he took that punch from Matthyysee that sent his mouthpiece flying, I was amazed he was still standing. That was one of the best performances I have seen in a long time by a guy considered the underdog. But yes, he did turn down Mayweather....for now anyway.

Do you think they're after a big payday? Angel and Danny? And they just play it shy? I don't really think so -- I think Angel is not ******.

Hmmm

This isnt a fight for his legacy(may), its a fight for dollars! Garbage fight imo, especially if its in U.K. on Cinco de Mayo, let alone in Vegas!

True. Angel may be crazy, but he is not ******. I think it takes a lot for them to go public and say that they really don't feel like they are ready for Mayweather yet and not in a hurry to fight him.

i didnt mean the 50/50, i meant the testing. why did he have no issue whatsoever about testing until pacman came along. the answer is obvious. why wasnt ricky hatton told that if he didnt do these tests then there is no fight????? why was he happy to fight hatton with just NSAC testing?

no, i blame floyd for refusing to fight with the same testing he had done his WHOLE career.

Yeah its obvious-he thought he was cheating.

My guess is because his team didn't think hatton was cheating. It was also 2007-2 years earlier. things change.

i blame floyd for refusing to fight with the same testing he had done his WHOLE career.

So asking for extra testing is refusing to fight with the same testing he had done his whole career. ok shade.

If you ask for a raise at work does that mean you are refusing the same job you had done your whole career?

Objectively that's some of the worst logic I've ever heard.

"Herp a derp he never asked for testing before"

I would think one would automatically assume it was for the greater good of the sport, but I digress. Carry on...

cherry picker is the greatest fighter of this era

So the greatest fighter of this era is a cherrypicker? That explains why he's 45-0.

Greater good of the sport? Yeah, bull****. If so Mayweather would've been asking for it in every fight.

Stop making it out like Mayweather gives a **** about the sport, all he cares about is his money and his career, hence him trying to RUIN Manny's with false PED accusations.

So it couldn't possibly have anything to do with the possibility of Floyd being intimidated by a fighter who rose up the divisions and carried his power and activity rate with him?
