Is Manny black?

I must have missed that...

Oh and the 'legit threat' statement, very funny indeed!

No but Floyd and Kell Brook are.

and yes ''Legit Threat'', hope you can read well.

Now all Khan has to do is find a legit WW to beat to prove he's indeed deserving of a Mayweather fight. I think Thurman is still available for this winter. I heard Josesito Lopez hurt his hand last night (in a lopsided 8-round fight). Damn to bad luck! I know that's who they were targeting, but Khan is going to have to do better than that.

It is because of his name (Khan) and that he has had multiple visits to Pakistan.

Bit silly because they clearly don't know who he is.

My mate got denied a visa for America once because of his name. His name is really English but sounded like someone who was on some sort of list for ********* activities.

I would like to see him fight Guerrero or Alexander next, winnable fights for him and both are credible opponents and ranked within top10 at WW.



I hope he doesn't fight Lopez next, thats a meaningless fight for him .

I think he should fight Thurman or Alexander. Guerrero did not impress me at all against Kamegai. Either way, any of them are better than Josesito Lopez right now, especially since Lopez hurt his hand last night. I also think he could avenge his loss to Peterson at 147. It looks like Oscar and Arum are setting up Garcia for Manny, so Peterson at 147 would be good too!

How's Thurman a better option than Guerrero? Can you compare Thurman's resume with Guerrero by any means?

and I don't think Khan lost to Peterson in first place, but won't mind seeing that fight again, but Peterson is still at 140.


If he fights Lopez, i'm sure he's gunning for a Kell Brook fight next.

Guerrero has a better resume, but like Khan, a lot of that was at 140 or below. It's been a long time since Guerrero beat Berto (2012), and he took a long time off after Floyd, then looked real average against Kamegai. Thurman is undefeated, much better KO ratio (including KO of Diaz who dropped Khan), and he's an interim WBA belt holder.

lol glass jaw khan just got knocked out by customs.

[Southpawology]

Khan cant make the fight??? I think they should post-pone the fight until khans visa is cleared. Someone of khans star power NEEDS to be in attendance for this fight. If khan isnt in attendance at mayweather/maidana it would be an absolutely travesty. I'm deeply saddened.

Just like they post ponned the 1st fight when Floyd forced Maidana to wear the gloves of his own choice and Maidana said I'll not fight him until he's allowed to wear gloves of his choice?


Wow, what happened? Instead Maidana took money and fought next next with SAME gloves that Floyd ORDERED him to wear lol.
