Diaz drew with Porter, and Khan beat Diaz

^^^^^^^^Porter vs. Diaz I was a draw, which is what it was scored as.
Khan vs. Diaz was a robbery in my opinion. Maybe a draw if you're generous to Khan.
Porter vs. Diaz II was a convincing win by Porter to set the record straight.
Khan does not deserve a Mayweather fight, PERIOD. Khan got KTFO by Danny Garcia, beat an overmatched lightweight in Carlos Molina, and got a gift decision against Julio Diaz.
I would like to see Porter vs. Khan though, I think that'd be a good fight.

I think its wrong to assume Khan would beat Alexander, but Khan is definitely not a joke as some ppl like to call him.Comment

Many people believe, that Diaz beat Porter. But GB gave the judges to nudge their scores in favor of hopeful draw, Porter.
And Khan was actually able to beat Diaz, yet no one gives him the credit. Basically he topped the performance of one of the best WWs right now.
This old man mexican resurgance things and peds, never read about it happening once before the 70s.
Point is Khan did, what Porter couldn't. Khan would easily beat Alexander. Boxing is what Khan is a prodigy at. It's the rough and tumble that he's not so great at. He doesn't seem to possess the supreme discipline of Floyd.
I really think Floyd - Khan is going to be a fascinating fight. Nowhere near the best, but Floyd is 37. Age gets to you eventually. And if Khan isn't damaged goods, then Floyd is in for a workout. But look at Diaz, he's been KTFO multiple times, yet he seems to be fighting back to his best against Porter and Khan.
Its certainly going to be better than the utter snooze fest that is Pac - Bradley. It's so sad to see Pac relegated to Arum, like a dog, no power. Of all the great potential fights, Bradley? Again? Wtf? I love Pac, but religious people tend to just think everything will work out, but allowing Arum to run his boxing life is now harming boxing and his potential resurgance with an exciting fight.
I agree about Mayweather V Khan, under rated & frowned upon by the larger majority here at boxing scene, so it seems. That will be a great fight, and there really is no need to explain any longer, either you know about boxing and how styles make fights
, or your the opposite
.
I do have a different view on the Pac/Bradley fight though. This will show Bradley with his new found skills, I want to see Bradley win a lopsided match and show why he deserves to be where he is at. No disrespect to Pacman, he is a great fighter, living legend, but given I can only pick one winner, I'm riding with Bradley on this one. Nice Thread Broken HatComment

He's saying Porter struggled with Diaz. And so did Khan.. so that somehow gives Khan the nod over Alexander in fantasyfightland because Porter struggled with one common opponent?
Lets pretend Porter didnt avenge his draw as well.

Khan hadn't faced world class opposition before he fought Kotelnik and he virtually shut Kotelnik out at 22 years old. Why is Khan criticised for being so good so young?LOL again you are being DELUSIONAL. Age means NOTHING if you don't have the experience. Khan has alot more experience, and against top competition. He can't get a pass for going life and death with diaz, while porter can because he hadn't faced that opposition previously. Why are you being conveniently ignorant/clueless? Like you don't know this already and I have to remind you. It's almost like you're saying porter could have jumped straight to mayweather after the draw with diaz. Just stop. Stop sticking up for khan just because he's from the UK, I know you want to be loyal to your people but you have to acknowledge when you're being ridiculous.
Wheras Shawn Porter has been dining out on ESPN wins for far too long and he only gets a pass from you because he's AmericanComment

Those are the only type of opponents shawn had faced... he hadn't stepped up. Diaz was his first step-up. He's still developing as a fighter. Khan had developed faster than shawn. At THIS point in his career khan is still drawing to diaz...while shawn is beating diaz easy, and alexander easy.Khan hadn't faced world class opposition before he fought Kotelnik and he virtually shut Kotelnik out at 22 years old.

How can you compare porter who hadn't even fought a 12 round fight yet drawing to diaz, while khan who had already faced world class opposition and won multiple world titles in different division, drawing to diaz right before a mayweather fight. It is insane.....
Ok, im done with you tbh. Lmfao, Shawn porter hadn't fought a 12 round fight yet in his career until he fought Alexander, his first world class opponent. Way to continue to play dumb.Last edited by lolpz; 01-24-2014, 01:57 AM.Comment

It's more the fact that people are using the Diaz fight to prove Khan is no good.Comment
