Lol, yep Khan has a net worth of 30 mill, Maidana 4 mill, Khan shows up for over 30 million Google Results, Maidana barely 2 million. Khan also is perceived as a ****** figter, 2nd biggest faith in terms of following which also converts to buying fans. Khan has had more PPV's and can headline them himself and is nearly always the favourite and is a English speaker, enabling instant connection and marketability with the U.S. PPV buying market and supporting U.K. Market. Even in Pakistan there is a good percentage of English speakers, Maidana, needs a translator. Yep, Cortez again helped out and protected the biggest investment, lol, now you GTFO!!!

Khan also has sponsors in Reebok, Addidas, Top Man and Dunamis Watches, so yeah, I'd say he is the bigger investment, as well as him winning the poll between Maidana and him that Floyd ran before the Floyd/Maidana fight, so yea, I'd say Cortez helped the kid out a bit with no bias!

Khan beat Maidana almost 5 yrs ago. When Maidana fought Alexander, he was still at 140, unmotivated, and ready to retire. Since that he had 4 good wins in a row at welterweight. Khan has 2. At the time Maidana lost to Alexander, Khan was KO'd by Garcia and lost to Peterson. His competition after that was laughable. He was put on his ass by Diaz and in trouble several times. Diaz had a legitimate claim on winning that one.
Why didn't Khan fight Porter? The Alexander win means nothing, as does the Collazo win. He could have also fought Guerrero, but took the easier path, and a year late doing it. His and Maidana's first fight was close, so why not do it again? Alexander and Collazo are nothing better than gatekeepers at best.Comment

pretty much how i see it too!
no doubt in my mind that khan is being very carefully matched with the only aim to be secure a retirement payday against mayweather or (second choice) pacquiao.
He's running away from kell brook and doesn't want to take any risks against the likes thurman or porter. he isnt as popular in either UK or USA as he tries to portray, and is going to struggle to secure either floyd or pac without a big win over a bona fide top 10 welter.Comment

This guy doesn't even speak English but has a better command of it . Khan is a three time loser and no one is interested in him really. In Pakistan he might be big news but that's Pakistan and I don't see them buying many PPvs. His twitter followers are just that , they don't even know what boxing is.Poor Amir had NO fans when Oscar tried to get some of his investment back by putting him top of the MGM Grand bill in a fight where he was 3/1 on favourite ....NONE, I know he isn't well liked as I go to many shows throughout the world and have never known a fighter to be so loudly booed and this includes Eubank.I was going to say that even his most hardened fans must be embarrassed for him but the way these people view boxing maybe not.
As Lennox Lewis said "You walk in the rain your'e going to get wet" as Amir Khan then put it "If you go in the shower your'e going to get wet"....Not much more to say really apart from 'thick'and' delusional' springs to mind.Last edited by thack; 01-01-2015, 11:22 AM.Comment

Khan is a fraud. Maidana was mopping him. Everytime Khan fights a top level opponent he gets beat. Hell, McCloskey was starting to give him the business before they stopped the fight.
