Comments Thread For: Khan Topples Maidana in Poll, Waits For Mayweather Call

[JJRod]

Wanted Maidana to get his shot but the reality is Amir poses the better threat of the two against Mayweather accept it or not. Maidana may deserve the fight more but i'm sure most of us are tired of watching Floyd vs come forward power punchers.

But of any fighter who you would say can beat Mayweather, it would have to be a puncher.
It won't be a boxer, as I doubt anyone can outbox Mayweather, so it would have to be a puncher. Someone who when and big if he ever lands a shot, it would be hard enough to hurt Mayweather.

Khan hasn't done shyt in the past few years! Dude has yet to avenge any of his losses, and held out because he would have most likely lost again. GBP have been trying to make this fight for the longest.

Khan has fought two C- fighters since getting knocked out by Garcia and is still talking like he has done something.

I honestly don't believe he'll end up picking Khan... I think it'll be Maidana... Floyd may be viewed as a cherry picker by some but one thing he doesn't do is fight opponents who are coming off of losses (like PAC does)... He also fights a lot of guys holding belts... I also think Maidana would be the easier fight... He's a slow, flat footed, low skilled, brawler, who comes straight forward with no movement... Floyd would counter an pot shot this guy all night to an easy decision... At least Khan has quick hands with skills... Floyd beats him easy too but at least it a different style... The only reason fans want Maidana is because of what he did to Broner... Broner is no Floyd... Deep down inside they know Maidana has no chance either... I'm not high on either guy... I wish Manny would become a free agent to see if the fight could get made... I think Floyd would counter PAC with his long reach all night to a UD... PAC is a lot smaller than Floyd and one of the things mayweather does very well is fight from the outside... On top of that, Floyd is definitely the A side now which means he'll most likely decide the ringsize and glove size... Bigger gloves reduces Pacs power and increases Floyd's defense... Bigger ring helps Floyd stick and move and effects Pacs chances of smothering him...

Damn shame.
A mere con does not deserve a shot at Mayweather.
Maidana should be getting the nod.

A mere con !!!! HaHaHaHaHa nice

you have a point but why have the poll if he wouldn't use it, but maidana is the clear better choice like you said, hes winning and has a belt. I don't like how khan avoided the alexander fight and chance to win a belt to get Floyd, Floyd should not reward him for dodging a title shot

You could've said all of that without mentioning Pacquaio..seriously you guys hate that man so much you can't stfu about him. He's not the only one fighting guys coming off losses but it's very revealing when mofo's always use him as the example. I'm a floyd fan myself but seriously get off Pacquaio's nuts.

Really?
Man he would have been better off bringing up guys like Marquez, Pacquiao, and Hopkins. All guys who lost early in their careers and went on to have HOF careers.

I mean if you're going to exaggerate might as well go for the best.

I hope Floyd fights Maidana rather than Khan.
