I dont know about you guys but I wont fall for this fight save my bucks for something else.

At this point, I don't care about seeing Floyd in the perfect fight against the perfect opponent. Amir Khan will do. Nobody expects much out of him but with his speed, size, Wildcard-esque conditioning, he can be the Buster Douglas for one fight, before he goes back on a losing streak.

Lol I'm almost at the point where I don't even want to watch this fight.

Don't worry, you will. You'll spend the next few months defending this fight and will gladly fork over the 70 dollars for this ppv when the time comes. People like you simply can't help themselves.

Not gonna buy this fight!!!!!

This is a wash from the jump!!!!!!!!!!

At this Point SHOWTIME, is Milking the Golden Cow!!!

And LANCE and KHAN, are both Business Men.....HMMM???

You replied to your own thread. Your such a trash poster I honestly believe your handicapped with your posts that you write. If you are then sorry for being a douche if not then I don't know what else to say.

Yeah it seems Khan is the inevitable opponent which sucks because everyone knows he hasn't earned the opportunity. I think it's like 3% of fans support this fight. He seems to get allot of hate from the Brits which is weird because they usually support their own so I'm assuming his popularity is from the ******s in the Middle east and ******s in Europe so I guess Mayweather wants that Arab $

Golden Boy must have no faith in Khan if they can't even build him up properly before the fight letting a Diaz fight be the stepping stone to a mayweather fight which he got knocked down and arguably lost. and before that a win against a C grade journeyman. I won't even bring up Garcia or Peterson. He didn't earn his position he just gets it by popularity.

Personally I hate Khan but would have accepted the fight if Khan earned it by fighting Alexander or another top 10 WW but he just did nothing.

LOL
stop hiding under your mama's skirt Floyd and fight Pacquiao...grow some balls , COWARD!

[Fetta]

Sure why not. I'll watch

[turnedup]

This makes no sense...Khan said he signed his contract...Maidana said nobody has even called him about a fight in May we know it's f'ing Khan. At least announce him and then defend him in the public and gives us why you chose him. It's almost insulting how dumb these people think we are. Khan is, has, was, will be the opponent. Cut the shhh and let's get to what's going to matter in this fight...The undercard...public opinion will not change about the main event.

His popularity comes from the fact that there are huge amount of Pakistani/Indian people in the world who know him. His fan base is essentially ethnic based, much like the Hispanic fighters.

Let's just look at the consumer boxing dollar ratio for those two ethnicities then...one considers boxing damn near a second religion...the other doesn't. He could have all the support of the world if they aren't buying fights..they aren't buying fights. Best you can hope for with Khan number wise is that the Brits come up for him and i'm not sure if his past numbers or there lackoff will get them that.
