Why does Boxingscene use post old khan interviews?

to be fair, im not an A Mere Con fan by any stretch but the way they publish the articles makes him open for ridicule very easily
when you post a snippet of an interview, its hard to know what context he was saying it in, how he was answering the question, what his demeanour was.
Also the headline is usually totally different to what the actual quotes were
And then the quotes are hard to analyse without seeing the full video interview
the way boxing scene publishes articles, it makes it look as if khan just says headline material every sentence.
"If I beat Pac, Mayweather will fight me!"
On the face of it, you'd think Khan was being his usual dumb self.
but he could have been saying "If I beat Pac, mayweather might fight me but i dont hold much hope for it..." with a more resigned tone rather than an upbeat arrogant tone.
Do people see where im coming from?
Yes Khan stil talks crap by the way dont get me wrong.Comment

Also this applies to any boxer being quoted. Very easy to make a headline out of what was probably some innnocent quotes.
Andre Ward says "There's no one else left to beat"
Article actually says, there's no one left in my division. I may need to move up or down to get some decent fights
Headline "Ward proclaims himself as the P4P King!"Comment

Don't worry, I'm a Khan fan too. The guy has the best or one of the best considering how you look at Bradley, 140lb resumes in post Hatton. He has time and time again proven he has balls and a never say die attitude. I know people don't want to hear this but their main dislike for Khan is his colour, nationality or religion. I know average BS poster can't look beyond that so you have no need to defend yourself.
In terms of Khan wanting Mayweather, he got played and May just used him to stay relevant in the British media at times. Having said all that, I have never had problems with fighters calling out the best guys around, isn't that what contenders are supposed to do? How do you think Ali got a shot at Liston or Moore against Marciano? Heck Moore wrote over 500 letters in a span of less than a year lol
However, I don't care about Khan's charity work, if it was real charity, he wouldn't advertise it.Comment

This is just a crappy blogging website with no standards, you should not be reading anything posted here as news.I am huge khan fan and I check out his interviews on various outlets. Every time I come to boxing scene it uses his interviews over and over again. Khan has been doing a lot of charity work for refugees that are coming from syria and there hasnt been one article about that. There are always quoting his old interviews about how he wants to fight mayweather.
The sites owner, Bigpoppapump, has publicly made a fool of himself saying Zab was going to destroy Khan. Ever since then, he has had this childish vendetta.
Honestly, I find it really funny. They will make literally a dozen articles about the same weeks old Khan interview, pretending that each time it is a new interview. Twist his words, and lie. Making up headlines. Putting !!!!!!! exclamation points on sentences that were either not said, or exaggerated.
Always, puts !!!!! points for Khan, but not other fighters, LOL. The main writer that covers Khan on this site is really unhinged.
If you wanna shoot the shlt, and gawk at idiots, this place is aight. If you wanna actually read news? Try ESPN. I would hope most people realise this place is mostly just a joke.Comment

Naah...i tried to like Kahn but he fuxxx it up every time he opens his mouth...he's not as good as he thinks he is and he puts other fighters down who are active and more deserving of a big money fight...race has nothing to do with it or religion...dude is just annoying as f^ck...Don't worry, I'm a Khan fan too.

Exactly. It's only Khan they do this to. You would expect this in Britain, a very racist nation. But, even then, this site's coverage of him, really has devolved into a joke. Khan talks no more, or no less than an average fighter who sells himself. If you poke your head outside of this site, that is obvious to anyone with a brain.It is pretty weird how they take one sentence he says and stretch it out into 10 articles over 3 months until some of the more gullible readers think he's "obsessed"
But it's not only Khan they do that to
Just online tabloid journalism
As far as "helping" those refugees it's debatable whether he's helping anything or just enabling opportunists but that's another topic
Hmmmm, Khan spending his own money AND TIME. How many other boxers personally went to Syria to hand out food to refugees? It's pretty ridiculous to question his motives, when one does that. It's easy to sign a cheque.
Not so easy to do what Khan did. Humanitarian work is commendable, especially when the person doing it is obviously genuine. But I guess, in the boxing world you should be beating women and acting like thug to get more respect.Comment

So you're not a fan of 90% of boxers ever? I get it.Naah...i tried to like Kahn but he fuxxx it up every time he opens his mouth...he's not as good as he thinks he is and he puts other fighters down who are active and more deserving of a big money fight...race has nothing to do with it or religion...dude is just annoying as f^ck...
What makes you like a fighter? What makes you a fan?
Edit: So you're a triple G fan who doesn't even have a 10th of Khan's resume. So you just like nice guys then?Comment

It's like you're willfully ******ed or just trying on purpose to miss the point of THE WHOLE THREAD.Naah...i tried to like Kahn but he fuxxx it up every time he opens his mouth...he's not as good as he thinks he is and he puts other fighters down who are active and more deserving of a big money fight...race has nothing to do with it or religion...dude is just annoying as f^ck...
Do you understand this thread is about the fact he actually does not have a big mouth? That this site has just been manipulating dim wits such as yourself?
Khan puts down fighters? LMAO! Khan is DEFINITELY on the lower end of trash talking opponents. Always has been. Only an idiot would think otherwise.Comment

In your feelings much??? Triple G doesn't have a glass jaw while talkin **** and not backing it up...khan has not proved himself at welterweight and if you say so you're lying to yourself...he does not deserve a big money fight just because he is Pakastani and ******...that is an absurd notion and you and khan should know better than that...how the f^ck is Algeria legit? or collaboration and weak ass Devon Alexander who he took forever to fight at the right time?...it would be different if khan would take on Thurman whose been calling him out or Shawn porter or how about welterweight champion Kell Brook?...But I know Algeria and colossi and Alexander somehow puts you in position to sit yourself on the shelf until a big money fight comes along for him to cash out in his plexiglass chin...Comment
