Comments Thread For: R. Mayweather: Khan is a Bigger Fight Than Maidana

[RawDawgHasSpokn]

TMT, Haymon, Golden Boy, flat out joke, long time fans are tired of the dodge duck, shuck and jive. I hope paqiou fights on the same night, I'll gladly migrate back to HBO instead of supporting this circus and its headline clown, I thought we were in for better fights after Floyd stepped up and fought Canelo. Amir Khan? U going from Canelo to Khan? That's str8 clown BS!

Paq and Cotto have real fights coming this year. I just regained respect for HBO and Top Rank; and I hated both! Bob Arum stuck by Cotto and the Puerto Rican fan base and Paqiou dusting himself off and keeping it classy while Floyd publicly ridicules a boxer that he has no intention of fighting; that's flat out pointless, it does nothing for boxing or its fans. The lack of professionalism from Haymon and Golden Boy is hurting the sport, boxers from both camps and the fans.

Get the word out to family friends, social networks and all other media outlets,
Do not support this fight!

I see no difference of when Pacquiao fought Rios and Cotto fought Rodriguez. Khan has better wins and a better resume than both them fools.

Khan may be the bigger event but IMO it isn't the better fight. Yes, Khan beat Maidana but that doesn't mean he'd do better against floyd.

I will continue to hope the Khan fight doesn't get made.

IMO, floyd banked some good karma for fighting canelo... taking an "easier" money fight with khan doesnt offend me as much as it should. LOL.

bottom line, maidana is the credible opponent... khan is irrelevant & a win over him wont enhance anything for floyd.

floyd is a master of the bait & switch... He is probably trolling us with khan.

It's true, Khan is a bigger fight.

[Duckweather Jr.]

The tomato khan vs floyd should be on regular showtime, so sick of these 12 round unanimous decisions vs completely overmatched opponents.

Why pay $70?

Truth is, he'd manhandle both in the same night if he had to. Maidana IS more deserving but he'd get beat down too.

Yeah this is pretty much it here..

perfectly said. he is the bigger draw regardless. mayweather is thinking about all the brits that crossed the pond with hatton. kahn does have a following, god i dont know why but not nearly enough as the hitman. imo floyd will fight anybody that can raise the better payday. after that is secure then they will promo the hell out of it and then at the end of the day we all will buy the ppv.
floyd haters will even buy just to watch him lose. at the end of the day, he still sells the crap out of a fight.

Im sure Canelo fans bigging up Angulo fight will have no problem with this that Khan being a bigger star will be a big fight and will "sell" better on ppv. rite? no? Or are they gonna pull the moral high ground as to how Maidana "deserves" it more?

Yes its true Khan is a bigger fight but i just hope its not him as i want Khan to get Exp at 147 or a big fite vs Porter and take that momentum in Mayweather fight. Even without that its still a big fight Khan has better wins on his resume now than that Canelo or Victor Ortiz do even today.

Yeah like he did Devon last year.

I tink GBP/Floyd/Showtime are estatic Broner lost to Maidana. It gives them another option for floyd, makes Maidana bigger, and allows khan time to actually beat someone credible and rebuild his brand. Your point about them rushing Broner too quick was really good.

AT this point there are only 2 tiers for floyd-ww/jww fights most think he will win or JMW/MW fights where the weight makes people think he will lose.

[Box-Office]

Both are easy fights for Floyd. Maidana deserves it more though

Still will be better than Pacman vs Punching "bag bag" Rios fite and the event as a whole considering its Golden Boy.
