Comments Thread For: Khan Leaves Mayweather Fight in Al Haymon's Hands

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

British star Amir Khan (31-3, 19KOs) is taking a break from the ring, but his mind is fully fixated on a September 12th showdown with WBC/WBO/WBA welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (48-0, 26KOs).

Khan returned to the ring last month at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, and won a tough twelve round unanimous decision over former WBO junior welterweight champion Chris Algieri.

Mayweather was also in the ring last month, winning a twelve round decision over Manny Pacquiao in what was easily the richest event in the history of the sport.

Don't do it Al! Everyone knows that Khan is NOT worthy! Give Khan to Maidana, Thurman, or Brook. If he wins then set him up for fight #50. Right now, Danny Garcia is a more worthy opponent. If Floyd is looking for a legacy fight, then holla at GGG!

**** outta here. Who did Guerrero and Ortiz fight beside Berto and get Mayweather?

And who the hell has Garcia beat at 147? Oh wait he hasnt even fought there, yet all u guys were crying that Khan needed to fight at 147. Two impressive wins and one decent one and thats not making him worthy? Last I checked Garcia arguably lost his last fight so FOH with that worthy ****. Khan is more worthy than any 147 pounder at this point.

I'm sorry, but didn't Garcia KO Amir Khan? Khan SURVIVED Maidana and Diaz, and barely escaped a loss to Chris Algeri! History lesson:

Amir Khan, still a world champion but headed for hospital, mumbled through the bruises and cuts that dressed a face rearranged only moments before by Marcos Maidana: "I proved tonight I've got a chin."

What an understatement. The 4,632 fans scattered around an arena that holds twice that number in the bowels of the Mandalay Bay last night were brought to their feet in a frenzy in round 10 as the Argentinian challenger – who came to the fight with an 87% stoppage record – belted Khan from one side of the ring to the other.

He landed blows, unanswered, that would have destroyed any other fighter of comparable size in the world, including Khan's friend and stablemate, Manny Pacquiao. Yet, drawing on his phenomenal fitness, the boy from Bolton somehow remained upright to retain his WBA light-welterweight title. The judges gave it to him over 12 rounds by margins of 114-111 twice and 113-112. Had one judge, Jerry Roth, not bizarrely awarded the final round to the champion, Khan would have won by a single point on all three cards. I had him winning 115-112.

Amir Khan survived an early knockdown and a late onslaught to eke out an unconvincing points win over supposedly damaged goods in Julio Díaz, yet he was told within minutes of the decision that his next fight would be for a world title.

On his return to the UK after an absence of two years, the judges gave it to him 114-113, 115-113 and 115-112, but again Khan's lack of one-punch power allowed his opponent to force him into uncomfortable situations. He had the heart but not the hammer.

Khan picked up a win on Friday, outpointing Algieri in a unanimous decision. But if the goal was to look impressive—Hey, look at me Floyd!—the outcome was a defeat. Credit Algieri: Under the tutelage of John David Jackson, the brains behind Sergey Kovalev, Algieri was reinvigorated. He applied pressure. He loaded up. He stood in the pocket, took Khan’s best shot, grinned and kept on coming. The decision was fair—Khan edged Algieri in total punches (216–197) and power shots (154–145)—but far from decisive.

Why is ggg a legacy fight????? He hasn't fought any body of note yet. Plus the dude gets in the ring at 174lbs. Why should floyd fight such a larger man when ggg called out ward 3 times only to back off and say he won't go as high as 168lbs. So it's ok for floyd to fight a man 25lbs heavier than him but ggg wont fight a man 8lbs heavier than him??? I want to see ggg fight a real fighter 1st. Then make some demands. But all he has fought is c level fights and people think he is so great. Until he fights legit competition im not riding the ggg train. And I don't buy the eerybody is ducking ggg. He could have fought ward but his manager said he is NOT ready for ward.
