Comments Thread For: Khan: Beating Canelo Would Make Me Pound For Pound Number 1

[Trinidad_Fan]

What is it with these ****ers claiming p4p # 1 so easily and without merit? I remember back when Hatton was desperate for that title and said not only once but TWICE that he would be p4p # 1 if he beat his opponent. First it was Floyd and Hatton got humiliated. Then it was Pacquiao and we all remember what happened there. I think they're STILL trying to wake up Hatton from that one. Khan is another loudmouth UK fighter who overestimates himself from here to eternity. I hope Canelo knocks his fool head into the 10th row of seats.

Chinny & unranked Khan believes beating Ring Mag's #8 would make him P4P #1. Louis CK should get some comedy notes from Amir. Priceless.

Barrera and morales were on even terms with Castillo and Corrales at the time pacquiao and floyd fought them.

Marquez wasn't a legend in the sport when he and pacquiao fought the first time. Corrales was just as big as morales and barrera. And Castillo was on par with marquez.

Marquez was an under appreciated fighter. Not p4p.

in fact marquez would have been an underdog against either Castillo or Corrales in 2001, 2002, 2003.

so now it's easy to say that marquez, barrera, and morales were greater than Castillo and Corrales but in those days that was not the case.

as matter of fact besides beating each other, morales, barrera, and marquez resume don't just stick out as all time great. Just to be fair.

and we all know those dudes wouldn't have beat floyd ever.

hell I'm not sure that morales,barrera or marquez would have beat castillo.

We can use hindsight and in reality Floyd's wins have always been overated. Barrera and jmm in history will always be held in higher regard than corrales and Castillo.

Floyd has always been given too much credit, people believing Floyd has been climbing mountains for some reason whilst in reality more like steep hills or molehills at most

Khan beating nelo would make him no1, or rather could, but there is a lot of politics in boxing as we know so might not become no1. You can jump from outside top 10 to number1 in one fight. Most people don't achieve that because they dont step up 2 divisions and win. If beating ne!o don't make him no1 should khan just ignore fighting nelo and fight kovalev instead? Does he have to beat kovalev? Or would people say the rule book says you can't jump from outside top 10 to no1?

This ends your argument right now.

Name one example of a fighter jumping from outside the top 15 to number 1 p4p?

I'll wait.

One fight can't make anybody p4p. You build up to be number 1.

Ask roy
Ask bhop
Ask floyd
Ask manny
The last 4 p4p kings

Tarver didn't become p4p number 1 after he beat the P4p king
Taylor didn't become number 1 after he beat the P4p king.

and those are examples of top fighters beating the number 1 guy.

Canelo isn't even number 1 p4p, so how does a win over him make you number 1 p4p?

be objective for once.

That doesn't even happen in college rankings, basketball or football.

I've tried reasoning but you aren't having any of it are you? There is no rule book that tells you how to become top ten or no1 p4p! Precedents are made every day in a court somewhere in the world so to say there is no case of someone jumping from no15 to no1 is unheard oif doesnt hold weight! Khan will set that precedent. Some people have become top ten and people don't believe its deserved. Some believefd should be no1 but werent made it *****pac*****
Nelo is highly rated and no one 2 divisions below him would beat him in most peoples opinions. So if khan did it he is doing things nobody csan do. That would make him deserving for no1. Risks need rewarding!
Tarver just happened to be the man who fought rjj but many could beat that weakened state rjj. People k ow jumping up and down in weight isn't easy Tarver isn't naturally smaller anyway!
Many things are taken into consideration but khan isn't wanting any advantages, so he don't want excuses as well.

Whenever Floyd defeats someone you said he couldn't you find a way to cheapen the victory. He climbed every mountain you said he needed to and when he did, you moved the goalposts and deleted the post where you said what he needed to do to be an ATG.

You are a f-ckboy with absolutely no credibility.

The thing is with khan is he has beat some excellent names. I think people hold his losses against him a little too much. Garcia is no slouch now, but he had nothing to lose when he fought khan. Garcia was taking a beating as well.

So khan probably is top ten now. ! Khan keeps kicking ass.
