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

[b00g13man]

Khan gets hated on purely because of his race. If you think brooks resume is better and think his last 4 opponents are better than khan , then all you should gtfo here. u guys are pure haters. if ortiz and gurrero got it so can he.

Not true. Yes, there are a handful of morons that do, but most hate him because he's a delusional twat while being a very mediocre boxer.

Khan beat Maidana head to head yet he got FLoyd, Khan shutout ALexander who shut out Maidana who gave Floyd hell. Guererro is no better that Algieri if Khna had beaten him youd be saying hes a bum like with Alexander. Double standards the whole way.

Is that the Alexander that was crushed by Shawn Porter? Was that before or after Khan, I can't remember? Was Maidana a title holder in the WW division? You say Khan "beat" Maidana, I say Khan "survived" Maidana. Was Guererro an interim champion @ WW when he got his shot? What's Algeri's record at WW again? Khan's status is "Rios with a British accent!"

Golden Boy is hoping this fight gets made cause other than Floydtards who's gonna want to watch this crap fight over Canelo vs Cotto

Khan struggled with Diaz, Thurman KO'd him. Khan struggled with Peterson, Danny Garcia got the win vs. Peterson, and Garcia KO'd Khan! So should Khan get the fight before Thurman or Garcia? Maybe it's just me?

No it's not just you, after the way Khan struggled in what he called his 'statement fight' with hand picked Algieri (who he called the last resort), No.
Khan is little more than a nuisance who considers himself to be much better than he actually is and pretty soon his bubble will burst yet again.
Amir Khan is saying that he will be the next P4P best fighter in the world,there is more chance of him winning the heavyweight tile than this .
Wladimir klitschko is the only fighter he hasn't called out yet and who does he choose to fight ....this one IS an idiot....just to be laughed at !

Khan gets hated on purely because of his race.

Wrong. At one point Khan was arguably my favorite fighter. Seriously. I was f**king devastated when Danny f**ked him up. But man, the **** that comes out of his mouth...after about like the 6,000th (give or take) dumbass MF'n statement to come out of his mouth -- I just got tired of him, man. I got tired of defending his delusional statements all the time. He just has such a ridiculous, twisted, bloated view of his self worth.

I don't hate him but I can't ride with him anymore.

the problem with khan is that earlier on his career, he actually was an alright guy, decent but then he started to realise you wont get anywhere in boxing just by being a nice guy and nodding your head, people will walk all over you, so he switched it up, started being a lot more controversial, pig headed, deluded. That's fine. Most boxers are like that. Problem with Khan is he doesnt know when to turn it off. He hasnt really got a brain. He forced himself to act like a nob earlier on in his career and now he cant stop himself. He contradicts himself many times over many issues. He's trying hard to be the typical alpha male black boxer in america who can say stuff and cause controversy, he's trying to make wild statements, but he just comes off looking bad each and every time he talks. Its not in him to be arrogant or deluded. He really isnt that kind of guy, he's forcing himself to act like this and that's why hes become a laughing stock.

Alexander wasn't "crushed" by Porter, but it was a close fight. Either way, it was that same Alexander who completely dominated Maidana, the guy who gave Mayweather one of the toughest fights of his career. Even in the rematch, Mayweather couldn't beat Maidana anywhere near as bad as Alexander did. That's why triangle theories don't work. Styles make fights.

And by the way, Khan was dominating Maidana for most of the fight, and knocked him down in the first round, almost ending in a KO win for Khan. Maidana had a few good rounds later on (including one round where he hurt Khan, but failed to get a knockdown), but otherwise it's a unanimous win for Khan.

**** 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.

Beautiful response.couldnt have said it better myself .

also at the moment he has the deepest resume with manny notable opponents . someone also said he needs to fight maidana .why ? He already beat him.hes got bigger fish to fry.thurman has beat who ? Guerrero ? Lol.brook needs more names to beat.khan already paid his dues.if ortiz and guerrero got a shot y not Amir ? Cuz of hi chin.hes been koed twice before.ok manny has been koed just as many if not 3 times i believe.lets not act like mayweather is a KO artist

Any top 10 welter would look spectacular against the likes of Jo Jo Dan and Frankie Gavin. Any top 10 welter would destroy those bums. But if Khan fought against low-level fighters like that, we wouldn't hear the end about his "cherry-picking", even though that's exactly what Brook's been doing his entire career. Haters were even making a big deal over Algieri, even though he's a former world champ on a much higher level than Brook's last 2 opponents. Just imagine how much hate Khan would get if he fought Jo Jo Dan or Frankie Gavin? Khan haters are hypocrites, judging Khan by a completely different standard than other fighters. They're either being completely irrational, or just closest racists.


Danny Garcia is a world champion, nothing like the C-level fighters that Brook has faced his whole career. Brook wouldn't even dare step into the ring with Garcia. Either way, if you think Khan isn't "worthy" of a Mayweather fight because of the Garcia loss 3 years ago, then according to your irrational logic, Maidana isn't "worthy" of a Mayweather fight either because of his losses to Khan and Alexander, and yet it was Maidana who gave Mayweather one of the toughest fights of his career. But as usual, all logic breaks down and the usual double-standards come into play whenever Khan's name is mentioned.

so struggling with Julio Diaz is some badge of courage (the same fighter that Keith Thurman blew out in three rounds)? GTFOH

AK should get the floyd fight, styles make fights and it would be exciting however long it lasts.

Khan has the speed to trouble Floyd, he controls distance well (which will be important in a floyd fight) and he's good at winning rounds, picking up points and invariably always takes an early lead.

He'll force floyd to press the action and that could make for a very exciting fight.

Khan doesn't control distance as well as Floyd.

Khan showed so many flaws in the Algieri fight.
