Comments Thread For: Amir Khan: I'm Going Up Because Nobody at 147 Will Fight Me!

[tiliheels]

People try to play up Khan's strengths and minimize his flaws, when he has more flaws than strengths.

You'd think by now people would have realized that Khan's just not that good. He's had a better career than expected, but he falls WELL short of elite.

no question about it..he's shown for ten years now that he has no inside game, no backfoot game, nou countering game,no chin, and no it factor..
blessed with speed and length and no one can deny but on this level i'd much rather just be your basic power puncher that comes foward and can take a good shot

LMAO, he turned down a Bradley eliminator fight last year, smh.

Poor Khan......

[MC Hammer]

This guy need to shut ALL of the **** up. I mean every single oz of the **** needs to be shut up right now.

He's not dancing this time. If Canelo catches him with a clean punch, he's doing a plankquiao.

Yeah I think your right lol!! I can't wait for it

[MisterPullman]

Yeah I think your right lol!! I can't wait for it

His right?

I don't usually like Khan's antics but I have to be fair with him. And right now it's true that Danny Garcia's side has been making noise that they don't want to fight him.

For once Khan isn't lying or exagerrating.

Ok so we'll just brush aside that the WBC literally the day before the Canelo fight was announced said that Danny either fights Khan next or vacates.

kell brook, keith thurman, shawn porter, paul mc closkey, prescott,diaz,algieri ALL want to fight him..most of them would do it for nothing or pay him to climb through the ropes.
yes its a challenge fighting canelo but, we are talking about probably the greediest little **** out there and its the ONLY way he will be given a payday WHICH is what this is all about to him.
ya know its funny, since the announcement we started with the laughing and joking but now, there serious discussions taking place about winning! actually discussing giving this loser bum a chance against the bridge between a fight with gennady galovkin. can you imagine? how far do you think he would travel if hit? this is what were talkin about in reality...
galovkin vs canelo isnt a shock or surprise, its a good fight but, "khan vs galovkin" how does that sound?? so there you have it...a reality check on whats actually happening, khan fighting a much bigger punch resistant man and canelo fighting a chinless bum.
its johnson vs ketchel almost 100 years since...

[Buckfever]

No one would fight him for 10%.

sad day..dude sits around trying to look like the 38 year old version of floyd at 25 years old lol...he needs to show his true mexican colors in this fight..or i'm saying boxing is fixed..bc he can do it i've seen it vs lara...and he lara had real pop..khan dont so he should be doing it even more

Canelo fights in spurts and gets out boxed in between. He's a bull, and Floyd got him in the headlights, semi paralyzed him with speed. That's Khan's forte, speed, I think it's a good move by Khan, risky, but smart. He has as good a chance of out speeding Canelo as he has of out boxing Kell or Thurman. Canelo works in spurts, so Khan will only have to be quick in spurts, (Floyd wasn't even breathing hard when he finished with Canelo). Khan and Canelo both have stamina issues, so it comes down to size for Canelo, and youth and chin against Khan's speed and game plan (Fury comes to mind). I still think Khan gets KO'd, just trying to figure his motives besides cash.

Khan is looking for one last pay day because he knows he can't compete with that glass jaw
