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

[Kuyukut]

i'd rather see fraud jr fights calderon than iron chin khan. what a bullcrap bout...

[LAFIRPO]

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...

Dude, you must have forgot about Floyd fighting Zab Judah after Judah lost a decision to 36 year old Carlos Baldomir.

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.

Naw Pac is one of the top guys fighting dudes coming off of losses! His name is linked to Mayweather and people always compare the two. I know you are a die hard Pac fan I have read many of your post.

People bring up Pac to point out the double standards. Fighting Rios off of a loss moving up in weight is not a good look when people consider you one of the top fighters of this era.

If Floyd would have fought Rios making him move up in weight coming off of a loss he would have got ate up for that. It's Pac fans that make people have a disdain for Pac.

You guys and yes (You) included act like Pac can do no wrong. When Manny was having tax problems you was defending him like know other! Then his lawyer came out and blamed Michael Konz and said it was his fault that Pac was having tax's issues you were know where to be found.

I for one think Khan is a garbage fight for Floyd cause Khan hasn't done shyt in the past few years. I am able to admit that. Pac fans would never say such a thing about Pac fighting punching bag Rios instead of Alvarado.


So to answer your question he brought up Pac because that's the way people measure Floyd by comparing them to each other.

khan has a pic on his instagram page comparing himself to Tyson and gatti pretty much saying they lost early in their careers and went on to be great lol if I knew how to post pics on here I would post it

A mere Con has severe delusions of grandeur -- To even mention his name in the same breath as Tyson and Gatti ........

huh? Tyson was like 35-0 before he lost his first fight

And Tyson pretty much begged Buster Douglas to get back in the ring with him and Buster wanted no more of Tyson.

So to answer your question he brought up Pac because that's the way people measure Floyd by comparing them to each other.

1. I'm such a die hard pac fan that I won money on his two loses but ok. I respect the man and his abilities and believe he makes for an easy punching bag for fanboys who need to measure floyd's greatness by painting him in contrast of Pacquaio but ok.

2. You aren't him so you can't say his motivation. Nobody else here was mentioning pacquaio, the article didn't include pacquiao..what he said had no point at all with the article...so him mentioning him was flat out pointless and ******.

3. You've seen my post? Glad you have if you really have you'd notice I don't bad mouth any boxer on earth..if that makes me a fan of someone that would make me a fan of every boxer by that logic.

4. Khan is a pure boxer, he's a boxer who built his career on amateur background boxing meaning his focus was on the intangibles for a lot longer than most boxers Floyd has faced recently. Maidana as much as I like to watch him fight is a brawler with unorthodox way of setting up his punches..he's an improved version of Guerrero and again as much as I like Maidana he's going to walk into rights and jabs all night. Khan may be chinny but he knows how to set up his punches. Floyd's hardest fights have been against boxers with speed not brawlers so yeah if i'm going to spend $70 on a fight it better not be to watch a glorified sparring session.

5. I find it hilarious you want to sit there like a tool and give me pacquaio's resume..but you had no problem with Ortiz' and Guerrero's fight with Floyd based off beating the average Berto..whoppity doo...some win to be coming off from. You don't criticize Floyd fighting Marquez coming up two weight divisions. You don't bash Floyd for vacating his titles and going into retirement rather than face the mawlers at 147 who all were destroying each other for a bout against him. I'm a floyd fan but I can see the good and the bad..unfortunately you can't.
