Comments Thread For: Amir Khan Stands Firm That Golden Boy Pact is Over

[sicko]

I'm sure Oscar could CARELESS about Amir Khan at this point and I think Oscar would have done what he did with Leo Santa Cruz by now and just sell his contract back to Haymon instead of dealing with this BS

Haymon gets the blame for EVERYTHING but it is guys who are HIDING BEHIND HAYMON on their own

Khan, Leo Santa Cruz, Peter Quillin, Adonis Stevenson are those guys. Fighters are given options, nobody is forcing them to do anything they don't want to do.

when rewards are big and risks is low, lesser options sound pretty damn appealing. from a business standpoint haymon's plan makes sense as his fighters are receiving the highest possible purses sometimes fighting second tier fighters...thus negating the risk

from a fan's perspective this is frustrating as we want to see these fighters tested against the best

haymon is pitting the best among his stable against each other at the moment though I hope he keeps doing so...we did get thurman - guerrero and garcia - peterson

Lol who gives a sh it? I mean wasn't it obvious? If he was with GB he woulda been in some fights where he could actually get ko'd

[thiefery]

Doesn't even matter at this point, he's not fighting anyone dangerous. Sad part is that Khan always looked for the big fight, now Al just keeps dangling that magic Mayweather carrot in front of Khan..

There is no problem with the people around Khan, the major problem here is khan himself. Khan changes his statement every time. Khan made a "winner take all" offer to Brook and Brook immediately accepted the offer. A day or two later made an announcement that he will fight Algieri instead. Any handler will be confused with a person like him. When you make an offer, be firm and if the offer is accepted...then fight. As straight forward as that.

hes actually the only one who probably wont

Nah I believe he will, eventually. Just like Oscar did to Bob, Canelo is going to do do Oscar, probably more so to get out from under the 'Golden Boy' shadow.

[shoog]

I believe in Canelo - I believe he's going to fight GGG. I believe he'll be the first star to do so and he will give us a great fight. He might even not get KOd in the fight...

I feel the same faith in Canelo as you do, despite being the cynical boxing fan that i am, i believe in some universal truths, first and foremost, above all else mexicans are warriors and Canelo comes from that lineage of great mexican fighters. I believe win lose or draw Canelo will step in the ring with GGG and do all us diehards proud.

[Bigg Rigg]

He's acting like as if he's being with Al is that much better. He's not getting A1 treatment from his pimp Haymon. He had him in a loop for a yr thinking he was getting Floyd. Now Al can't even get him Broner. Smh what's the big **** about being with Al?? He's not getting him the fights he wants. And advises everyone. Except for Brook of course but Al has Floyd, Broner and Thurman and he's getting Khan Algerei. Lol
