Comments Thread For: Khan: Legends Told Me Only I Can Beat Mayweather

[Box-Office]

he's been posturing for years wouldnt u say? his posturing has turned in to laziness...cant protect him on this one..kell brook seems to be his nightmare..if there is any unbias side that comes out and tells us about their sparring i'd expect to hear that khan got something he didnt like.. i 100% think khan willn ot have an opponent by the end of march and if he does we're going to clown the fight b/c it will be a terrible one..and he'll say nobody wanted to fight me as an excuse

Lol, and since when did Kell Brook fight started to hold meaning for Khan? Only when Brook won a title, before that he was a contender (in a division above) calling him out and brought nothing. This went for years where Brook would fight Carson Jones and use Khan's name to bring attention.

Brook has fought for 10 years, 33 bouts and only became a champion in his last fight and only then it all started to make sense. Before that it was pointless rambling from yet another contender trying to make a buck.

Oscar was a superior fighter than Khan. He accomplished more by the time he was Khan's age, fought better opposition, and had a better chin and better power (these are facts).

Facts that held no relevance because what counts is the condition you're in right before a particular bout and not years ago. Calzaghe should get credit for beating Lacy cuz "at that time" Lacy was the next Tyson or what not, but someone like Jones Jr not so much, cuz Lacy's weaknesses "at that time" were long exposed.

Oscar accomplished more than Khan by 28, which is Khan's age, ok cool, but what age did he face Mayweather? 34. It wasn't Bernard Hopkins 34. Plus didn't Oscar admit to Ortiz on 24/7 that he was done when he faced Mayweather?

Khan has been Ko'd by C plus fighters and dropped by them several times. The guys who beat Oscar were all top fighters, the guys who beat Khan are just above average.

True, but I never said Khan is a "superior" fighter. Superior fighters don't lose all their top fights. Oscar's great wins against Chavez and Camacho came when those guys were done. So what does that leave us with? Vargas?

Khan fights with what you can call a "disability" for a pro boxer. Glass chin. He has over achieved for that. I mean he was supposed to retire after Prescott, yet here we are.

Khan keeps pointing to his height and range when Floyd has faced guys taller and rangier, who had better chins! People are putting way too much emphasis on Khan's speed advantage. If Danny Garcia , a guy whos KO ratio is only slightly higher than Floyds, could time and KO Khan I believe Floyd can give him serious probem.

Mayweather is aging and the version that fought the "rangy" Corrales was years ago. Also it is the combination of speed and range.

What is with you man? You ignore points just to make your argument. Before his fight with Floyd, Oscar said he was in the best shape of his life. Now after losing he claims he was done...

I never said that you said Khan was superior, IM saying that Oscar was Superior to Khan. Yes Oscar lost his biggest fights but again the guys he lost to were FAR better fighters than the guys Khan took L's against. Trinidad, Mosley, Hopkins were all better fighters than Pescott and Garcia.

Yes, Khan has a disability for a boxer. But how is a guy who you admit has a disability going to beat the best p4p fighter in the world? Youth and speed? That's all? Floyd is just going to dip below the waist every time Khan gets close and shoots off those combos then get up and throw straight rights followed by left hooks. Its going to be easy work after a few rounds

Duck accepter? Khan fought a tougher opponent in Collazo for $1.5 Million so he can be on Mayweather' under card than fight Brook for $5 Million.

Pu$$y fans? Anyhow, I've had the honor of competing as an amateur, so yeah there is that.

thurman and robert got no belt..thurman brings nothing..right?

Keith Thurman is the WBA "regular" WW champion. Now I too have a few name change suggestions, but that would deviate the subject to personal insults.

brook been the number 1 in ibf rankings for years..if khan wanted a belt all he had to do was beat him..and dont lie to yourself saying that fight has not always been big in england..that fight 2 years ago would have main evented anything over there

I'm well aware of the boxing scene in UK and that fight would've been massive back then and now. The point is with a "World" title on the line it makes more sense both financially and name wise.

...u just might be amir khan

I'll take that as a complement.

Khan has changed his style 180 degrees. He is chinny, but he is not the same wreck less Khan he was that fought DG or Prescott. So, while that chin is there to be hit, the question is will Mayweather be able to counter? He is at the point where he can age over night.

Also every fighter has flaws, just like Oscar had with his age or Hatton with his lack of technical skills. It is a matter of disguising yours and exposing the others'.

If no Manny, I don't see a viable opponent for Mayweather besides Khan that brings name and a challenge at the same time.

First Khan said he didn't want to fight Brook because he didn't have a title, then after Brook gets the title he says now they can fight only later to say, Brook is not on his level. Khan has doubts and wants that Floyd/Pacquiao money before he loses again. On top of that. Khan don't want another Brit having the spotlight.

[Spoon23]

This guy makes me kringe.

He thinks he's all that. Jeez to think he got tips from Pac. Wish Pac didn't help this loud mouth wannabee.

[Box-Office]

First Khan said he didn't want to fight Brook because he didn't have a title,

Why should Khan have been the rung to someone's economic ladder?

then after Brook gets the title he says now they can fight only later to say, Brook is not on his level.

It is posturing from Khan.

Brook has finally returned from his stabbing injury for March 28th and Khan is returning most likely in May.

Khan has doubts and wants that Floyd/Pacquiao money before he loses again. On top of that. Khan don't want another Brit having the spotlight.

Khan beat Alexander, who is a top name and has accomplished a lot and that win warranted him a shot at either May-Pac. It is surely a better win than Andre Berto that got Guerrero and Ortiz a shot.


So, how is Khan stopping other Brits from having the spot light? Khan gets news articles for coughing out loud.

King khan is legend like Ali
