    what it actually sounds like is this - arum thinks mayweather and his team are taking the piss by telling khan not to fight devon, wait for us til may, yet nothing is signed yet and putting up ridiculous polls. its not rocket science. if i was khan id be pissed aswell. if im khan and im claiming im not doing it for the money, then id tell floyd to get fcuked. who does he think he is?!
    why would khan be pissed shade?

    GBP/Floyd put it out there that he was fighting floyd next, a fight you and I know he didn't deserve. He's gotten more press in the last 3 months than in his entire career. He got increased visibility, especially in american markets, that he wouldn't of otherwise got.

    His next fight, whoever its against, GBP can market him as the guy who floyd didn't fight. All this and he didn' have to risk losing or looking bad against Devon-especially sine that fight would've been just after Ramadan when khan's triaing would surely have suffered.

    This whole thing hasn't been bad AT ALL for Amir.

        Maybe he is, maybe he is playing for the camera. either way he got mentioned for a fight he hadn't earne and didn't deserve. In not getting it, he gets to use the "floyd ducked me" mantra that other fighters have used/ tried to use to heighten their own profile.

            ok. if you say so. IMO, He got mentioned for a fight he didn't earn and didn't deserve and has gotten increased exsposure because of it.

            If Arum wants Amir so he can replicate his marketing/promotional strategy he executed with Manny, fine.

            I feel Bob is doing what I posted and you responded to. feel free to disagree.

              its not what im saying, its from the man himself.

              you really dont like anything you perceive to have a negative slant on mayweather do you!

              i completely agree he doesnt deserve it, and neither does maidana for that matter. this is why floyd is taking so long, he knows nobody is interested in these cherry picks. probably getting a bit of pressure from his boss at showtime to fight somebody with a pulse.

                thats what ok, if you say so meant-if amir is genuinely upset as you say based on the tape, ok.

                If you say its about a negative slant on floyd, fine with me. That makes no sense but if you think its valid, so be it.

                I have no idea why floyd hasn't announced who he is fighting next. He may opt to fight someone else rather than maidana or khan.

                  1 can only hope. however he will still look like a **** for telling the fans to decide between 2 guys who have no chance.

                  well iv just posted a video with the man himself saying he isnt happy about the situation, yet you are claiming it is a good thing because he got media exposure?! as i say, anything to take the negative away from floyd.

                    I never posted it was a good thing. I said the whole debacle hasn't been bad for Amir at all.

                    SO because khan isn't happy that makes it negative for floyd. Ok shade, if you say so.

                      im sure he would rather have fought for a world title than sit about twiddling his thumbs.
