Originally posted by turnedup View PostHold the FK up, how are Amir Khan and Danny Garcia the highest ranked fighters at 147 for the WBC. What kind of back room influential bullshhhh is this. Garcia has one fight in the division against Paulie, at least Khan has 3 wins and a silver belt but what about Bradley? Porter? Brooks? Hell Thurman. Hell even Robert Guerrero should be higher ranked than Garcia.

Lets see if Khan actually takes this fight that he once claimed he wanted more than Mayweather...

Other organizations' champions aren't ranked, or if your scheduled to fight for another organization's title, you aren't ranked.
Bradley -- fighting for WBO title vs. Rios on Nov. 7th (title vacated by Floyd)
Thurman -- WBA champion (upgraded to full champion after Floyd vacated)
Brook -- IBF champion
WBC title -- vacant (Floyd vacated)
Guererro -- LOL
Fair point re: Porter but in reality, a Khan-Garcia rematch is a bigger fight than Khan-Porter or Garcia-Porter (though both are good fights) because of the history between Khan and Garcia. As a result, it will sell more tickets, get more viewers, sell more commercials, and (most importantly to the WBC, generate bigger sanctioning fees).
So there's definitely a little gamesmanship going on with the rankings but frankly sometimes I'm fine with a little BS if, as a result, it delivers a fight we desperately want to see -- and this is one of those fights.

As a Khan fan this is the dream fight for the fall not only because it is Danny Garcia rematch, but the WBC WW title will also be on the line.

Originally posted by whatismyname View PostDude why are you so obsessed With Khan? I swear I never seen this type of Obsession even from a fan of his. Now, u ****ting on him constantly would be justified if thurman, brook and Bradley had already fought each other a couple of times and Khan was the only one trying to get the big Fish, but the rest of them are doing the same, and you only got an agenda against this kid cuz it might actually work for him, same as it did for Bradley.
As for khan Garcia 2...Awesome!

The only time Thack pops up to post is on a Khan thread with 10 individual posts in the same thread talking to himself slating Khan. You have other critics of Amir whom one can at least respect cuz they're boxing fans. Thack on the other hand has shown his real motivation behind ****ting on Khan in quite a few of his posts and it has nothing to do with boxing.
