Comments Thread For: Khan: No Pay For Brook, Fought Bums His Whole Career

[yoz]

how do you rate Shawn Porter when you just said two minutes ago that he was nothing special?

You can 'rate' someone without putting them at the top of a tree.

Comprehension is difficult for you, isn't it?

Khan get's asked a question about Brook or Mayweather and reply's and everybody gets mad what is he supposed to do say nothing?

Khan is right,Brook's resume is ****.Brook has been fighting at Welterweight for about 11 years,Khan 3 fights and they both have the same number of wins over a top 10 opponent Brook is just looking for a payday.Khan makes 1.5m a fight and i doubt Brook makes over 100k.if by next year whether he fights Mayweather or not he still won't fight Brook then that's when it will be clear he is ducking the fight,right now he is not because he is chasing a fight with the best in the division.

Exactly.

So now 'average' and 'nothing special' = I rate him?

Sure I'm the one with comprehension issues.

Rate:

'assign a standard or value to (something) according to a particular scale'.

Porter is a good win, and it don't matter that it was close. The problem is that Brook only has one good win.

Mate, I don't care if you believe me or not They did give free tickets for the Diaz fight. A former colleague of mine from the Daily Star told me Khan specifically said he wouldn't bother answering questions about Brook.

I don't care what you think he's implying, and why would we "assume" it when it's in an article on fighthype? He's not fighting any world champions.

It's not about caring, stop getting emotional, but its about adding validity to your claims. It was a **** fight, so I'm sure they were given out, but how many? 100, 200? Out of a crowd of 9000.

No where did Khan say Algieri IS a World champion. Again, adding validity for your own sake and not about what I think.

I'm talking about Ring magazine and TBRB.

To your comments about top 10s.. wtf. Seriously, you're slipping. "Player of the year" is also decided by journalists - I.e. people who've never been playing football. Or fight of the year in boxing- BWAA decides that. They don't know shyt either.

Oh rrrrright the journalists. So, if you admit they don't know **** then why bother?

Really? What's the difference between Molina and Robles?

Molina was an undefeated prospect coming in and still competes at a respectable level. Robles was a confirmed bum coming in and is.

Because when you mention something like Haye-Maccarenelli I've got to question which state of mind you're in. Milk that win? I mean, you musn't have been around at that time - because it wasn't "milked" at all by anyone.

Plus Haye was already lineal + unified champion Absolutely no relevance.

I must have struck a nerve there. "Don't touch my Haye".

Khan vs Porter

Khan was saying how he would love a fight with Broner.

Now Broner's been beat by Porter, let's see how Khan does against Porter.

Me thinks he ducks Porter.

Just like he ducks Brook.

Just like he ducks Thurman.

Khan's a good fighter but Brook finishes him in 8.

[Box-Office]

It will soon be a year and 3 fights and we'll continue hearing how Porter will "maul" Khan and is a WW Haye and keep using "his" wins as a way to boost Brook while Kell himself will keep fighting no hopers and use Khan's name to stay relevant (career formula since 2011).

First off, Barrera? Really?

Secondly, doesn't it tell you something that you have to go back 4-5 years to justify Khan's resume? I don't get it. He's lost to Peterson, got destroyed by Garcia. Got dropped and mauled by Diaz, got buckled by Algieri. In his last 5 fights he's looked convincing in 2 of them - and they were all over matched!

Brook has looked convincing in 5/5 of his last fights + has had 4 stoppages.

What have you done for me lately Khan?

This is the truth.

Barrera was way past prime and the fight was stopped on cuts, as Barrera was coming on stronger.

Since then every time Khan has stepped up he was beaten.

Alexander was a decent win, but that is the only highlight in a declining career.

And who has Khan beaten of note since 2011?

Alexander?

Who was beaten by Porter.

Who was beaten by Brook.
