Why did Mayweather pick Maidana/Berto over Khan?

[Eastcoast]

Khan's cowardice cost him the Mayweather fight. He was set to face IBF champ (Butt-expert) Devon Alexander and he pulled out of the fight. Maidana beat Broner and moved past Khan.

Second time around, Khan's cowardice cost him Mayweather when he didn't jump to take the Brook fight. Khan never deserved a shot vs Mayweather.

Except Khan cancelled that fight becasue Floyd's people told him to.

the never deserved it argument died wth the Berto fight im afraid.

The zero means more to Floyd than anyone can even imagine. If you thought it meant a lot to him, times that by 100!

He dont mind being criticized as well, that has been a common theme throughout Floyds career.

floyd had been waiting for years for khan to do something meaningful and he never did.

if you havent noticed yet, he like to fight guys coming off big wins so he maximizes the ppv numbers. khan hasnt had a big win since 2010. all khan does is talk. khan is famous but does he really sell? when has he ever even been the main event? mayweather was waiting for a big win from him to make the fight but khan refuses to fight anyone with a punch since 2012.

How clever of you. You made a poll where voters are forced to either say Floyd is afraid to fight Khan or that Floyd is ****** enough to think Berto is a better fighter than Khan. I don't vote in rigged polls like this one. Neither of your options is true and there are no other options available. Boo on you for setting up such a BS poll. If not fighting a boxer who might bring in a few more dollars means you are afraid to fight him then Khan must be afraid to fight any of the best welterweights. Khan has only fought mediocre average fighters in the few fights he has had in the last two years. No doubt Khan would have made much more money fighting Brook, Porter, Garcia or Thurman than he made fighting Diaz, Algieri and Collazo. Khan never even tried to fight Brook, Thurman or Porter even though they all called him out. By your thinking this means Khan was afraid to fight them for fear of losing to them.

This is all true. This is a true reason Mayweather didn't fight Khan. Was this a voting option on your rigged poll? Of course not. Khan hadn't done a damn thing except brag to earn a Mayweather fight in the 3 years since he was knocked out by Garcia. When it comes to bragging and talking big but not fighting Khan is the undisputed champ.

He did a poll and all seems like scared took easier route

I'm no Khan fan and rate Floyd as an all time great but I'm realistic. Styles make fights. Khan gives people fits unless they can out-power him. Even when they can out power him he gives back a ton. He knocked down Maidana and Peterson despite being outgunned. He's susceptible to punchers. Floyd is no puncher anymore.

When Floyd was even at 80% there would be no doubt but Floyd looked much less than that in his last few fights.

I don't see any shame in that.

It's a myth that Khan only struggles against punchers. Algieri can't crack an egg and he troubled Khan.

People go on and on about Khan's speed, but Algieri and Garcia were able to time him. What makes you think Floyd couldn't?

And Khan isn't a big money fight. His PPV against Alexander only did 762k views.

Algeri was always going to be a tough fight for khan, have you seen how big that mofo is? He's got the height and reach advantage on khan and khan had to get close to land his punches and when he did Algeri let of his own. Khan didn't have the power to hurt Algeri and Algeri just turned it into a dog fight.

I'm just trying to figure out what Khan did to go from a bum to someone mayweather ducked since the time he picked Maidana over him. Most people on this fight thought May weather rigged his website for Khan to win since literally every other poll had Maidana winning comfortably.
