Comments Thread For: Amir Khan Still on Course For December Fight on SHO

[Lullaby]

Based on what??? They aren't going to throw Khan in with some bomber that could knock him out before he gets his dream pay days. Al Haymon is pimping these guys. He gets them payday so he too gets a payday, but gives them each a tomato can to kick around. And for the clown who said he rates Khan very high, I ask the same question.... Based on what? What he did in 2010? He had no credibility at 147. He's fought nobody at Welter!

Oh f*** of Floyd nut hugging F-lomo..

Floyd just fought Maidana twice, someone whom Khan beat

and he beat Collazo at 147, who was ranked top 10 by every boxing organization rankings and was coming off a KO win over Ortiz, same guy who Floyd needed to ****** punch to get the W.

[QUOTE=BIGPOPPAPUMP;14984568]Amir Khan is looking to fight Dec. 6 in either Las Vegas or Brooklyn’s Barclays Center, a source with knowledge of the situation informed BoxingScene.com on Saturday.

Showtime Sports executive vice president Stephen Espinoza confirmed via email that Khan was “penciled in for December,” but the exact date is still to be determined.

The 27-year-old Khan (29-3, 19 KOs), a former unified junior welterweight world titleholder, has since moved up to welterweight. In May, the British star turned in a dominant performance against former 147-pound beltholder Luis Collazo, flooring the New Yorker three times and winning by double-digit margins on all three cards.

You are right. Just like Pacquiao has been ducking real WW and fighting BUMS like Brandon Rios, Algieri, Bradley, a drained Cotto, a drained Oscar, a drained Margarito, and Mayweather left overs like Hatton and Mosley.

So yeah, your flawed logic and it's absurdity is a sure way to make you look smart with goofy talking points. The only thing you got right is Khan ducking Brook.

Tell your boy PAC to step up and fight a real WW who happens to also be an actual title holder since all those names you listed for Floyd were all title holders and there was no weight drainage shyte.

That theory doesn't aply to Pacquiao you moron. Rios was chosen as a third or fourth option because neither Floyd, Bradley or Marquez would fight Pac. Manny was calling all three out, the best in the division, and when he heard crickets from them they fed him Rios to stay busy, whom he embarrassed. Manny then gets his rematch with Bradley and embarrassed him. Algieri was only chosen after that because the opponent was going to Provo who gave Tim Bradley the beating of his life, got screwed out of that decision, dismantled Alvarado in his back yard, but got screwed out of another decision to Algieri who claimed his title. Floyd still wouldn't fight, Marquez still won't prove his last fight with Manny wasn't a fluke, which it was, so rather than Provo next, they give him Algieri. Do your homework next time clown. Everyone else during that time had a dance partner. Now if you want to talk about ducking, rather than unifying his title at 140, Garcia lands Rod SALKA, a lightweight until-ranked no less, who had never fought at 140. Peterson was obviously available because he fought on the same card another in-ranked nobody named Santana. And let us not forget out badley Marquez was begging for a shot at the 147 belt. Begged for a rematch with Bradley. Pacquiao shuts out and Marquez won't fight him for the belt. Shawn Porter offered him a shot at his 147 belt and he wouldn't fight Porter. Even Provodnikov at the time called out Marquez, and rather than fight the guy who just destroyed Alvarado, he fights Alvarado himself. So don't just throw **** at the wall to see what sticks.

Amir Khan vs. Keith Thurman at the Barclays that would be huge. I believe the winner ought to get Floyd.

[big_james10]

Is Salka available for Dec?

Al Haymon is probably on the phone with his manager right now to find out if he is available.

[big_james10]

What do you guys think of @AmirKingKhan vs @GHOSTBOXING both coming off tuneup fights are now ready for a step up.

It won't happen. Amir Khan will not fight an opponent capable of beating him. That would ruin his chances of getting a Mayweather fight. He should be fighting someone like Guerrerro, but instead he will fight someone like Josepito Lopez.

[big_james10]

Amir Khan vs. Keith Thurman at the Barclays that would be huge. I believe the winner ought to get Floyd.

It won't happen. Khan will fight a rematch with Bredis Prescott before he fights Thurman or any fight that might beat him. He won't fight Prescott either because there is still a chance that he would get knocked out again.

I don't care what anybody says, Khan is straight up ducking Brook. I mean when you fight a lesser opponent instead of the guy the people would rather see you fight...you're ducking (See Mayweather fighting The Ghost, Victor Ortiz, Marquez, Maidana, etc. instead of fighting Pacquiao). I mean Khan said he wouldn't fight Brook and instead went on to fight Collazo? What a joke...

Khan fight Brook at Wembley and stop ducking the fight you coward...

You moron how can he be duckin a guy who was nearly murdered a couple of week ago?

Khan vs Brook was in negotiations for May, and then Brook got stabbed, now he doesnt know when he will be fighting and how much damage was really done to his leg

What do u want Khan to sit and wait around for Brook to get better? Should he put his career on hold for Brook..just sit around an eat fish and chips

Bloody moron, think before u type

[mathed]

It'll be Khan against a safe opponent. If he wins, they might consider Guerrero in March depending on how he looks in December. Otherwise, it'll be another safe fight then too.

[WESS]

Thurman is sitting on the sideline. Starring. Waiting.... Probably will have to wait even more.
