    Khan no longer with GBP & Showtime?

    IDK if the same rules apply for Khan as it does Mayweather-Pac but if it does then mods please move to the main thread and forgive my ignorance.

    Anyway, I don't know if this has been posted but just read that Amir Khan is only tied with Al Haymon. No contract with Golden Boy and none with Showtime either. Makes things very interesting. Khan's someone's back-up plan, who else is there for him to fight next?

        I don't know. Unless May-Pac is happening, I can't see Haymon givibg Arum the pleasure of promoting his fighter.

            Amir said himself that the only ties he has are with haymon as an adviser....gee, like Floyd he is his own boss...a fight that might actually get made for once...I say they make this fight and both of them disparage Floyd the entire promotional tour...embarrass a the fool

              What is the most ridiculous thing a Khan hater has said? My sign quotes are a shining example.

              I've read non-sense worse than this, but here is a sample:

              Originally posted by arraamis

              Still, no one should lie in wait with their career. That is completely absurd!!!

              Instead of Khan chasing after a dangling carrot, he should have been cleaning out as many top-contenders as possible (If he can, of course) then, no one would deny that he deserves a shot. This pattern would have also, built up his fan-base to where he can actually carry a PPV. And that is the most important element that Team Khan is missing .... HBO\Showtime\Haymon\Floyd are more interested in filling venues and PPV sales, not individual desires and wants.
              So, apparently Khan still doesn't deserve a Mayweather fight?

              Originally posted by MisanthropicNY
              Devon is trash and another one of these "slick boxers" who have no skill against fighters who can control distance, have hand speed and have a high work rate..

              Khan fought the perfect guy... a guy with no punching power... who never wants to engage or fight on the inside.. a Mayweather fight would be way different... Floyd would make Khan walk in to big lead shots...
              So, when Khan decimates them, they weren't good to begin with?

              Originally posted by turnedup
              Seriously why are ppl acting like Devon was/is/has ever been a credible threat to Khan. Devon's style is perfect for Amir. Get in there with someone who actually presents a threat and isn't just good at fighting but actually "Exceptional" at something. Heard Keith Thurman was available to fight tonight...
              Anyone want to translate that?

                    Khan has the height, length, and jab to give Floyd major problems? This proves that most boxing fans just blindly parrot what boxers and analysts say.

                    Khan is an inch taller than Floyd AT MOST. I don't think it will make any significant difference.

                    Length? Floyd is actually the one with the longer reach.

                    Jab? Khan's jab is decent, at best.

                    Boxing fans need to think for themselves instead of blindly parroting what so-called "experts" say.

                      Khan wouldn't beat any version of Floyd. In fact I think Floyd would stop him late.
