Comments Thread For: Arum: Khan Should Tell Mayweather/Golden Boy - Piss Off!

[turnedup]

Yeah, but when you say "free him up" , Floyd isn't holding him hostage and doesn't operate on Khans schedule.

By going to a poll he most certainly is...look i'm a Floyd fan but let's be real if this was being done to Floyd you'd be flipping out. I can like the boxer and disapprove of his tactics. You've been saying for 6 weeks you plan on announcing your opponent..not only is this holding up Khan but it's holding up Broner, and it's holding up Maidana. So it's not just an instance of Floyd inconveniencing one person he's doing so to quite a few people. To say that a particular boxer is the front runner and the best you can do is come up with a secondary name and say you are letting the public pick you opponent is also bullshh bro. Picking you opponent shouldv'e been a list of the top ten in the division and let the masses pick a name. It is what it is..everyone will see it differently. As a fan of the champion in this equation I don't like how he's handling it. Just pick an opponent and let it be.

Dude please calm down and do some google searching. Amir was willing to fight Alexander but was approached about fighting Mayweather. Should he have taken the fight anyway? Yes but that's not the point..what you guys fail to realize is something pretty concrete must've been said to Amir when he was approached about a potential mayweather bout to pass up a chance at a belt and a payday. So again lets stop assuming bullshhh on here.

So he ducked Devon because somebody said it was a possibility to face Mayweather? He had Devon waiting and ducked him making him face Porter and losing to him.

I am sure Canelo was approached about Mayweather before the Austin Trout fight, but like a man he took the fight and that made the Mayweather Canelo fight that much more intriguing.

I am not assuming shyt, he had a chance to fight and beat Alexander win a title and damn there solidify his spot against Floyd in May. He ducked, waited and now is on the outside looking in. Like I said he is BEGGING for the fight but has not stepped in the ring.

Maidana has had two very impressive wins since Khan last looked straight terrible against Diaz, do you hear Maidana begging? Again , Golden Boy has options if Khan is sick of Mayweather and his antics fight other fighters that could build your name up end of story.

I know you love Arum and Pac but dude was wrong and you don't have to agree with everything they say.

Arum is right!!! If hes doesnt get mayweather fight break up with GB and take the 5mill kell brook fight!!!

Madiana fight is horrible!!!!! Slow, flat flooted, crude and perfect for counter puncher!!!

Cong**** to all idiots who wanted the fight!!!!

I love arum and pac...you know this how...assuming like the typical braniac on this site. Well bro your assumption is wrong. Maidana may have two impressive wins does that change the fact he'll be walking into jabs and straight rights all night like guerrero..like ortiz..like Canelo. I'm pretty sure you are one of those "pick up every new phrase that comes out of floyds house" and are likely affluent at the term styles make fights. Yes Maidana deserves the fight more because of his recent resume but he's the worst and least challenging opponent of the two. So yeah i'm sure you would be happy with another 12 rounds of Canelo vs Floyd but i'm not..I want to see Floyd fight someone who can actually do some of the fundamentals in the ring like jabbing..feinting properly..even if he does have a suspect chin. As I said Khan should've fought Devon he didn't and he clearly let that situation pass on because he had a pretty good feeling this fight was made..and you come to that conclussion...because clearly he was said something along those lines.

Well I feel if Khan thinks he's the star as much as he says he is then he should prove it and quit begging and not tolerate the treatment if he's got a problem. Besides that though, I think ShowTime probably is also indecisive behind the scenes on who to pick and that's part of what's going on. I doubt they're writing those big checks and have absolutely no say so in this decision. I dont think it's just a Floyd decision.

Was it khans decision or golden boys???

He already messed up his chances with garcia fight, Gb didnt want take another risk with there cash cow!!

[Fluid04]

Screw Arum...This is on Khan!!!

Khan is doing this nobody is making him wait it out he chose this. He could have fought Devon Alexander but ducked him clearly because the threat to lose was evident. He chose this path and most people would rather see Money fight Chino. Khan possibly screwed his self and looks like a broke fool BEGGING for a fight he doesn't deserve!!

[SoulByThePound]

ARUM has right,if you think what Al Haymon,GBP and the gretest ducker of all time are doing with their bit*h moves fighting this not fighting that,etc....etc....you have to admit boxing is a the weakest point in history!!! It has never happened that the two best boxer of the world were in the same division for so many years nd they didn't fought each other;i can only imagine DURAN or HAGLER or SRL or THOMAS HEARNS or JC CHAVEZ or CAMACHO or TITO or OSCAR or TYSON or HOLYFIELD etc...etc..etc....saying:
I FIGHT YOU AFTER A OLYMPIC DRUG TEST!!!! ahahahahahah WE'D HAVE NEVER SEEN THEIR FIGHTS....**** YOU AL HAYMON,SCHAEFER and JUNIOR...**** YOU!!!

Yeah blame GBP only thats the spirit

[Lou Cipher]

Hey Rob, the only way you can poach GBP fighters is to put on good cards and give fighters options of good opponents. You think Khan is going to join your dwindling "stable" so he can fight 3 different opponents in his next 7 fights? Manny is leaving, Donaire is leaving, you are gonna die with no stars while overpaying Cotto just to give the impression that he is a Top Stank fighter. Good riddance you goblin.

[Pimp-Hand]

Completely agree with this, regardless of what Kahn could have done..blah blah blah, Mayweather should not leave people hanging like this. Even Mayweather fans should understand this, just from a fair position. Who wouldn't put there life on hold if you were 1 of 2 people being considered to hit the lotto?
