Comments Thread For: Arum: Mayweather-Berto a Farce, Should've Faced Khan!

[TheStranger]

Who doesn't think the current version of Pacquiao is a more winnable fight for Khan than Mayweather? Khan fans should be happy with these developments.

[ma51f]

Are floyd fans really trying to judtify the beeto fight !!! Haha

[damian War]

khan would be an easy comeback tune up for pacquiao.. i say he carries this fool for like 9 rounds then sparks him out with a straight left.

[doom_specialist]

LMAO, the agenda and sheer hate against Khan from certain posters is real.

Saying that what has Khan done to deserve it...

Well please tell me, WHAT THE **** did Ortiz or Guerrero do that was so amazing to deserve Mayweather?

What did Rios, Algieri do to deserve Pacquiao?

As of right now, if you guys are saying Khan does not deserve it, then no welterweight currently does. NOT ONE. I don't give a **** if they're undefeated or have a belt, because you guys are clearly judging him off who he's fought at 147, and no other welterweight has fought all these top names either. And it's absolutely hilarious how they just casually ignore the fact that Mayweather's fighting Berto as if it's going straight past their heads. A guy who has done NOTHING whatsoever to warrant it.

Khan, hands down, including his 140 wins, has the best resume bar Pacquiao or Mayweather entirely of all the other 147's.

If you're going to challenge me by saying Collazo was shot, then you're a moron because he came off his career best win and only fought that 'beast' you guys call Thurman and hurt him and he didn't look good at all in beating him. Algieri beat the other 'beast' you guys called Provodnikov, which people seem to forget, and lost badly vs the 2nd best fighter of this era. He also dominated Alexander who all of you said Khan was ducking.

Three solid WW wins in a span of 12 months of being at welterweight.

So please, if you're going to use your obvious hatred filled agenda to try justify that Khan doesn't deserve it, then try apply it to every other fighter at WW, something none of you like to do because you know it just makes you wrong.

So after reading this post: What has Khan done to deserve Floyd or Pacquiao?

The only fighter at 147 that can say he's truly earned a shot at Floyd right now is Timothy Bradley. Everyone else including Khan have weak resumes. Khan didn't even beat the best at 140, but he gets a crack at the best fighters at 147 because of Algieri and Collazo? This isn't an agenda, it's just common sense. He doesn't even have a welterweight interim title :/

EDIT: And if we're including 140 wins, Danny Garcia has a better resume than Khan as well, considering that he took Khan's head, along with all the other top names at 140 before he moved up.

Nobody would be saying that..everyone on here was convinced Floyd would fight one of those 3 and we had accepted it.

Nobody saw the Berto fight coming, we thought he was just joking.

Had Floyd chosen one of those 3, we'd have been fine with it.

Thats how I see it.

Triple G vs Floyd is a dream match up, if Floyd isnt going to fight Thurman, Brook or Khan, he might as well move up and fight Triple G. Whats the point of staying at 147 if you are going to avoid the top guys?

But he is not staying at 147, he is retiring.

I see sigs now, accusing Mayweather of ducking Golovkin

I think the point about being impossible to keep everyone happy is valid, and has been the case for a long time now.

The standards for Mayweather are much higher than for other fighters.

Case in point..... Rios/Algieri.

What would have happened had Mayweather selected those guys ?

Why did Pac get a pass ?

[aboutfkntime]

Arum speaking the truth for the world to hear, I think 99% of people have the same opinion now - most people accept that Floyd ducked Khan 4 times, and this Berto fight is the clearest example of that.

Only a few nondescript trolls on this forum seem to think otherwise but they really don't count since they're just these Floyd groupie types who would happily jump off a cliff if Floyd told them too.

ahaha wtf

When did that happen man ?

At what point, did Khan earn a Mayweather fight ?

When did he become relevant at welter ?

He still - to this date - has done nothing to earn that fight..... Khan is not even relevant at welter now, so how could Mayweather have ducked him in the past?

Funny shht !

[aboutfkntime]

Trying to figure out what Khan has done to deserve Mayweather or Pacquiao. Dude hasn't won a world belt at 147 in his career but he somehow deserves a shot at the 2 best welterweights of this era? Over guys who actually hold welterweight world titles?

yea wtf ?

[aboutfkntime]

Its' been said before but Khan should have fought Brook for his strap if his resume is so weak, but he didn't. He didn't learn anything from Alexander. Enough said.

Floyd should have rematched Cotto (a good sendoff for both and since he gave him the hardest fight of "the big 3"), and Canelo should stop masquerading as a 155 lb junior middleweight (a trick he learned from the equally entitled Chavez Jr. no doubt) and fight Gennady Golovkin since he's so over-hyped and under-accomplished according to this forum.

The way things are, I'm saving a lot of money.

good post !

I agree with everything except Canelo.

Canelo is obviously an entitled JMW, and nothing more.

When Canelo was a welter, he fought at 150.

Reynoso explained why..... Canelo can still make 147, and he will remain at welterweight. The weight is a struggle, so Canelo will only make 147 for big/meaningful fights.

They are obviously doing the same thing at JMW, 155 is 1lb over.

We saw him make 152 for Mayweather.

entitlement ftw ^^

If Arum/Pac were half as confident as you, then that fight would get made in a heartbeat. Not convinced at all. I would favor Pac, but not that much
