Comments Thread For: Amir Khan Focused on 'Statement Win' With Alexander

[MDPopescu]

Hug fest 2014.

... Yes, very likely... Alexander display a certain propension in that direction.

[Dean_Razorback]

good, stay focus on alexander

If Khan is spectacular he could very well land a desperate Mayweather who's currently running short on qualified opponents not named Pacquiao.

I don't think Floyd fights Devon if he wins. Floyd don't fight black fighters.

Shane Mosley is Mexican
Zab Judah is Puerto Rican
Sharmba Mitchel is British

Now tell us that these fights happened long ago. Well, can you tell us which black fighter Floyd should have fought over the last 3 years? Someone with a belt or a credible record?

What an idiot you are?

[Dean_Razorback]

damn, i didn't even read the part where he said "mayweather is my motivation", this guy is obsessed, big time he is looking past this fight too. he might lose this one

[Mzembe]

Khan is underrated by many and hated by a lot, although 99% of hatred towards him is based on him being a Pakistani ****** and / or British.

Is every boxer who has ever been knocked out or stopped guilty of having no chin? Ali, Fraser, Lewis, Morales, Pac Man. Can go on and on. Being knocked down doesnt mean you have no chin. If Froch can be put down, anyone can.

Prescott, he was young and naive. He went to war when hurt, under Hunter he wont be doing that again I wouldn't have thought. He still got up against both multiple times and carried on trying to fight.
No one says that about Pac Man after his one punch KO. It is a nonsense.

With a name like Uthman it is very clear why you support your Pakistani idol. You are both cut from the same race.
Let's use your logic to bust the myth that you are selling:

Khan is disliked because he talks too much and he thinks he is the best that Floyd's ever faced which is pure horse manure. Let's look at FACTS and also counter your silly points:
1) Garcia is UNDEFEATED for a reason. He is better than your idol. There is no lucky punch. Why didn't Khan land a lucky punch on Garcia or Prescott?
2) As for Khan being young and Naive, well, he is a pro boxer so if someone like you, who probably only started watching boxing because of Khan can know that theory why can't Khan and his team?
3) As for comparison purposes, while at 140Ibs Khan used to say that he is not ready for Floyd. Did you ever hear Floyd or even Manny say that they weren't ready for a specific fighter?
4) Khan has NOT won a belt at 147Ibs nor has he beaten anyone of note to warrant a fight with Floyd, yet he claims that he is the best opponent for Floyd based on his handspeed. Where was his handspeed when he fought Garcia or Prescott?

Khan will get KO'd by Alexander and you and all your friends can make all sorts of excuses and talk about his handspeed all you want it will not change the fact that Khan is a joke in America.

Man there will be like 400 clinches in this fight

thats just an ignorant thing to say. Some people say hes overrated and "hated", as you say, because he lost to ALL his top opposition, and gets knocked around senseless by those same top fighters. He also hasn't had a significant win at 140 let alone 147 where he had, ONE FIGHT!

I think if you look at some of the vile quotes you see on here you will see that to it certainly isn't an ignorant thing to say. Is hating someone because they have lost to ALL his top opposition a fair emotional response?

Unfortunately you saying he hasn't a significant win at 140 is genuinely, ignorant. That argument is over before it starts.

Also bear in mind he hasn't got the FM fight yet. Why should he not aspire to fight him? He is definitely not in the Cotto, FM, Pac Man league. But as far as boxing and business goes, he is in the tier below trying to break through. That ambition should not be knocked. If he beats Alexander, for the sake of argument, who would be more deserving, and / or would make more sense than him? Give me names.....

I would say only GGG. But FM is going to fight someone who rips him to shreds. Brook - no. Thurman is a nobody. Garcia has no fans or following. Names please....

How many credible opponents has he fought that are not black?

Here's to Alexander landing just ONE clean shot flush on Khan's chin..

My friend, seek an education of some sort:

He isn't my idol. You made that up. I simply said lets discuss his chin. I find it funny when his legs do a funny dance. I watch him because he is exciting to watch, fast and fragile.

My race is irrelevant to this conversation. FACT. Again, you made that up.

Garcia - I didn't say he was better or worse. Didn't mention him in fact.

I didn't start watching boxing because of Khan, you made that up.

No boxer is perfect, and all are young & naive at one point. I haven't claimed Khan is the greatest of all time. I simply said, let discuss his chin in an proper way. So this point is not really a point. You are essentially saying he isn't perfect and asking why not. I am stating the obvious, i.e. he can learn from his mistakes.

I didn't hear Khan say he wasn't ready for FM. Suspect you made that up too. And in any case, if he was in a different weight class, it would make perfect sense for him to say that!

Peterson - that loss hardly registered. Some guy fiddled the scores because the fight was in Washington. In addition to which Peterson is known to be a drug cheat. He hasn't been the same fighter since he stopped doping. He was smashed at times by Khan but could take it because he was on PEDs. These are facts. Garcia - his handspeed was there, he was dominating until that huge hook. Garcia is a puncher and landing that shot would have hurt most fighters.

Any way - good effort. If I was a teacher, which I am not, I would give you a C1 grade. 1 for effort. C for quality.
