You people are all okay with watching jokers handed out gift titles.
The level of hatred Khan gets i really wish he stayed in UK and became a Joe Calzghe sort of ATG. You wouldve liked that didnt you. Instead he took his title to States after one home defense gets KOed gets up and keeps trying to get big fites. Ppl wanna make jokes on the Diaz fite yet this is the same guy who drew with Porter a fite before.Comment

Most Underrated? NoHe's coming off a couple wins and should've gotten the nod against Peterson (Matthyse became a god after beating him according to NSB) he has the fastest hands in boxing,only second to Money. He has heart and will come to win. his chin will be better at Wterweight. Its his natural weightclass and has been taking bombs from Angulo. this is a real fight and the *******s can stand that Money is still fighting top fighters while their boy is fighting hasbeens, punching bags and senior citizens.
khan is a big star I n the U.K. and the fight will do 1.5 Million. Log It
Most Overrated? YesComment

ok, but then khan is looking bad facing favourable opponents? or diaz was supposed to be something more than a tune up fight?Ummm...he was signed to fight Lamont PEDerson in a rematch before that cheating twat failed a drug test. Khan got shafted in the first fight anyway.
Danny Garcia has never shown interest in a Khan rematch. Not saying he's avoided Khan, he's just gone a different path.
Prescott kept losing to mediocre fighters whilst Khan moved up in weight, was beating top fighters and unified at 140lbs. The rematch became less and less relevant.Comment

oh sorry, didn't know diaz wasn't a boxer, my bad. i thought that diaz was just another easy fight for khan just like molina that almost goes wrong.
i don't believe in triangle theories or anything like that, but if you can't look good against diaz you aren't gonna look good against floyd mayweather jrComment

One couldve said the same about Kiko Matinez who got KOed by a fellow contender in Carl Frampton yet got an opportunity and became a IBF World Champ. Just an example.oh sorry, didn't know diaz wasn't a boxer, my bad. i thought that diaz was just another easy fight for khan just like molina that almost goes wrong.

By your logic Maidana cant look against a boxer like Alexander then Mayweather fite will be only worse.Comment

So if he couldnt look good against a fellow contender how can he beat a world champ?oh sorry, didn't know diaz wasn't a boxer, my bad. i thought that diaz was just another easy fight for khan just like molina that almost goes wrong.

Diaz is a former two time world champion. He has pedigree. He was a way better opponent than Molina. He arguably beat Shawn Porter (current IBF Champ) in his fight before Khan.
I wouldn't say he has a "boxer" style. He was pressuring Khan all night. Khan should have done better - never argued against that.
I don't believe I ever made that statement. I was talking about Khan rematching people and you've gone full ****** onto a completely different topic.Comment

i give you that, ok. but dirk diggler said that diaz wasn't a favourable style for amir, but that fight was supposed to be easy, in his backyard, to gain confidence, to look good and he almost ended up like ortiz. now, do you really believe that maidana was fighting tailor made opponents? that he was brought to fight broner to beat him and not be beaten?One couldve said the same about Kiko Matinez who got KOed by a fellow contender in Carl Frampton yet got an opportunity and became a IBF World Champ.
