Comments Thread For: Schaefer Explains Why Mayweather Did Not Select Khan

Khan vs Broner should be on the undercard

[game20ver]

For the love of god can these people actually make Floyd fight a boxer just once in these last 3 fights coming up. I mean seriously the last time Floyd fought a pure boxer it was Judah. I like Floyd, i've spent a lot of money on ppv's and even tickets to fights but the constant narrative of brawler opponents is a joke now. This is why the fights are so boring...I understand he doesn't want to take a risk but that's because the fans will accept anything now. Can we not find one boxer, i mean one technically sound boxer in the entire sport to put up against Floyd just once...even if the guy has no shot in hell can he face just one god damned boxer again? I like Maidana, i've like Maidana since he fought Khan but let's be real..if Floyd fights on the back leg it's a sparring session and nothing more. Not worth $70..not again at least.

For the love of God, would you guys make up your mind. First you wanted him to fight sluggers, then you wanted him fighting bigger guys, now you want to see him fight a boxer. I'd say Marquez was a pretty good technical boxer and we know how that one went.

So Maidana beats a super featherweight and deserves it? Wasn't even surprised with the Broner result.

Not that Kahn deserves it, but he did beat Maidana...

Some Kazakh billionaire should just put up $100m for him to fight Triple G

Floyd fights the #1 challengers every time he fights and people always try to downgrade his opponents before he fights them. This is boxing anything can happen. Chino earned this fight that simple. His last few fights he hasn't lost...everybody else including Pacman has multiple times. Right choice.

[Yaconcha]

Whos the best option for Khan to fight and actually earn a mega fight with Money ?

listen my friend, khan has a mountain to climb first.
talking fights with fmj are way ahead of where he is now and why? because he has lost a few and truth be known....he is extremely vunerable and has no fan base here in england, we just view this bum as a greedy little ****.
options!?? please, i cant take no more my sides are splitting.
a good place to start OR revert back to because he ran before he could walk and admittedly, he did well in a few but, a domestic dust up with kell brook should be on the cards but then, he definately loses that one too!

[Pacnot]

HA HA HA Amir Khan Got Conned bigtime!!!
#1P4P vs Maidana way better than Pacnot vs Baldley2

[SaldanaCC]

I keep cracking up cuz ppl are actually defending khan an acting like he has or had a chance!!!
I keep hearing bout this speed that would give floyd problems.......ok first off this is speed which has lost multiple times gotten knocked down multiple times ....this is speed which has seen only 1 fighter who is a true superstar an thats a lil pre mature at that when talkin bout danny garcia but yet this speed can catch floyd the fastest fighter to date the best defensive fighter ever ....an if he did catch floyd he knocks him out....no way......they say khans a boxer....floyd wont fight a boxer.....come on really if thats ur thoughts in the words of floyd.....U DONT KNOW **** BOUT BOXING!!!!!!!!!!!!

if i was khan, i would be livid at whoever advised me not to fight alexander , whether that be my uncle/manager or GBP.

Pretty much this, they put all their eggs in one basket. What I don't understand is why doesn't Khan go his own path and do what he has to do? He has been talking and chasing the Mayweather fight for over 3 years now. Instead of just basically doing his own thing.

[seal]

Maidana is tailor made for an easy shut out, Khan poses problems,Floyd always takes the path of least resistance.

Floyd is fighting a guy who lost every round to Alexander and laneed only 14% of his shots while losing to Amir Khan, he'll be lucky to land 1.4% on Floyd.

Maidana has ZERO athleticism. He swings for air all night versus Floyd.

Floyd's message to the fans:

[gbonafide]

No one was happier to hear the news than Adrien "Annoying *****" Broner.
Big Bro just saved his attention starved ass another beating. Chino woulda put the KO on him if they tussled again & Daddy still woulda brush dat hair. What happened to the rematch clause that never existed n the1st place?
