Comments Thread For: WBC Prez To Danny Garcia: Amir Khan is Next Fight, By June

[St. Johns Gent]

Danny was the wbc no2 ranked fighter and he beat the no6. He's lucky to have the title at all.

If he was the no1 or beat the no1 or beat the reigning champion then sure but that fight should have been an eliminator to fight Khan for the title.

who did Cotto beat to get a 160 title shot? who did Canelo beat to get a title shot? who did Sakio Bika beat to get a title shot? Roman Gonzalez beat a guy that had 11 wins 4 losses before fighting for the 112 belt...now compare all those guys to Robert Guerrero's career...almost forgot, at welterweight Danny also beat Lamont Peterson, who at the time was a current world champ at 140

Well Danny won a vacant belt and that's their rule to fight the mando right away. But postol also won a vacant belt and gets to fight a voluntary. So yea they're still hypocrites

that waws bc postol's mando lost to a guy unranked by the wbc

danny could steal the cinco de mayo date with this match lol
free TV! over 2 million viewers on average for DSG
i dont think HBO would try to put a ppv on that night and canelo really has no dancing partner unless it is cotto 2 and cotto said hold off on that fight to freddie roach...
and he surely is not fighting GGG yet

wow does haymon have those balls??
THIS IS A HIGHLY ANTICIPATED REMATCH!!
DANNY BRINGS OUT THE STARS FLOYD, EDDIE MURPHY, DEGALE FROM OVERSEAS, EVERY WELTERWEIGHT....OH MY LETS DO IT BABY!
wouldnt it be great not to spend a buck on cinco de mayo for a change

Nice catch, Pacquiao the 38 year old multi millionaire, who would lead to Khan earning millions himself. Enough to retire after being put to sleep.

Khan's net worth is around $20 million, so another $3 or $4 mil is really more of an icing than a life changing pay day, soooo....there is that.


Pacquiao would rather fight the guy he beat twice already.

[-Kev-]

Khan has been a millionaire for a while, soooo....there is that.

No where in my post did I say he is not.

What I meant was he has been loaded for a while. Another $3 or $4 million is icing on the cake more so than a life changer.

His point was that you can't (or aren't supposed to, obviously they don't always follow this) win a vacant belt without the #1 guy involved in the fight. Those other ones you listed weren't vacant belts. They were voluntary defenses. Only Bika was a vacant and he was the #1 contender, he won an eliminator in the fight before his title fight.

i bet king khunts drawers/panties are sticky at the front for the money and sticky at the back for having to fight garcia again after the brutal ko loss against him. i bet the bums bum is on the 5hitter right now having a little squeeze out.

The question is, who would turn down Pacquiao. No active fighter would say no to a Pacquiao fight, that's a privelage, not something that is owed to Khan, he hasn't earned it. If you lose, you come out as a winner in the bank. Khan refuses to fight the top WW's. His last top 5 fighter was Zab Judah, ranked #5 at JWW. His last top 10 win was Alexander, ranked #9 at WW. If we focus on his last top 5 win, it was 5 years ago. Now as a Khan fan, you have to be disappointed at that. The most ridiculed fighters on Earth have fought top 5 fighters more recently than Khan.
