    What you're looking at is "fantards" - and trust me, most of them like him for reasons beyond boxing which explains why they will defend anything he does.
    I would like to see him challenge himself, win or lose, I do think he can be a great boxer if he is genuine, it's just mentally he is showing himself in a different light at the moment. It's not enough for him to just say ''I'm taking an easy fight in Algieri'', but its his condenscending tone and being more like ''I'm looking at bigger things than Brook, Algieri is an elite fighter, he's been in with the best, he's got explor--siveness, poower, speeeed''

    I guess some of his little fans are basement dwellers with chips on their shoulders, I know why they support him, nothing to do with boxing but being insecure, low self-esteem, closet racists!

      I never said Froch didn't deserve Calzaghe. Stop putting words in my mouth. I said Carl was irrelevant to Joe, yet another domestic champ calling him out. Much like Froch and Degale.

      Reaching? You're the one who made my Joe-Carl thread about Khan and me being jealous of Froch.
      IronDan said "Joe valated his belt instead of fighting Froch" to which you replied: "Froch hadn't even fought at British level then"

      How is that not saying Froch didn't deserve Calazaghe?

      Yes, he was a mandatory to fight Calzaghe which is why he deserved the fight. because he fought an eliminator. Is that the same as me saying Froch was the #1 supermiddleweight in the world? No. But he was highly ranked, even then.

      But it does stem down to Khan. When you start discussing about Froch you always somehow mention that he "picked" on Khan. So how is it not down to that?

      Clear fanboy behaviour.

        when khan is done battering algieri for £1.5 mil and batters floyd into retirement for £3 mil, he'll come for kell, the fight will be worth £10 mil for khan, 3 times what it is now

        king khan knows how to make money, thats why ur broke and he's rich


        .
        He's right it was actually 5 mill GBP, only when the news spread to USA that a few outlets mistakenly wrote it as $5mill

          regardless if was hern just throwing numbers out of thin air

          khan wins his next two fights, he and brook hit the lottery

          i dont see brook losing his next two fights given he is fighting 100% bums

          fight between brook vs khan is going to break some British records as far as money, it will surpass froch vs groves

          obviously with khans chin, hern wants to cash out now, for a couple of mil, but this time next year, we cud be talking a fight worth 15 - 20 million£

          if khan beats floyd, brook vs khan becomes a international fight

            Ok, let's take a Hearns fighter, Carl Froch. He goes to fight George Groves.
            Froch gets 8 million pounds, you can clarify with him if he got paid or not, but I'm guessing he did.

            So what makes you think Khan would not make 5 million!?

            Again all of this living in the past stuff doesn't cut it, Brook wanted to fight Khan, Khan didn't want to fight, so in all honesty, that makes Khan the bigest bum around. If Khan the god of elite doesn't want to fight, Brook has to fight other fighters.

            Honestly it should be the other way around with Khan vs Brook making a Khan vs Mayweather, Mayweather is the real lottery I don't see the logic in Khan fighting Brook later. Prove yourself(khan) in the ring! Mayweather is pretty much done now and Khan has a live, relevant opponent in Brook, a genuine, fresh 147 fighter

              The guy Denium or whatever called me a Khan fan boy to which you jumped on saying how Khan fans are the most jealous etc. You brought it in.

              That thread in particular didn't stem from Khan. It was funny banter I came across when I went to see what Carl thinks of Degale winning. Don't tell me you didn't enjoy reading it.

              Edit: My point was that a guy who had just fought at British level can't possibly on Sir Joe's radar. Why would he worry about a domestic champ? Especially when his next fight was at a higher weight for the Lineal title in a foreign country against a legend? To make it fair I mention Chunky as an example for Froch.

              It doesn't change the fact you're inconsistent with your argument regarding Alphabet orgs.

                The $5m offer was before Brook became world champion. It would have been over well over £5m.

                I can tell from the way you type that you're on benefits. Unless Khan has hired you to lick his ****** online. Would explain your recent Khan-exclusive bum-sniffery.

                  I'm not saying that thread in particular - but the thread was for Joe and against Froch. The dislike of Froch comes from his little Khan diatribes. Why not just admit that?

                  I enjoyed the whole Joe C vs Froch, but both guys are taking the mickey out of people. They are just getting a bit of banter going on twitter. Nothing more than that.

                  But you said Froch hadn't even fought at British level. Those were your words. But he was British and Commonwealth champion and had faced all possible British and european level supermiddleweights by that point. I didn't say Joe should be worried about him. I didn't even say he ducked him or anything like that

                  Doesn't change what? Mate, just because you don't understand the difference doesn't mean I'm inconsistent. I never use alphabet orgs to big up any fighter. It's complete bs. You said once I said something about Brook and IBF ranking - another complete lie. Never said anything about the IBF rankings.

                  I did say it was ******ed to call Collazo a top 10 ww based on alphabet rankings. It's the same as calling Jo jo Dan a top 10 ww. I mean lol.

                  But please point out where I'm being inconsistent. I'd like to hear that.

                    Oh yeah, what's also hilarious is that Eddie Hearn on an interview on IFL TV said Brook-Algieri is not a bad fight but Khan-Algeri is, man that guy is full of great banter.

                    Forgot to mention, if you generalise a particular group of fans over a fighter that they like; you sir are exhibiting the ******ed behaviour. Generalisations and stereotypes are for the narrow minded and uneducated.

                      He actually has a thing and I'm not making this up called the "Matchroom Cult". A group of promotional fan boys ffs.
