Comments Thread For: Amir Khan: Floyd Mayweather Did Not Want To Face My Style

[wlliam]

Floyd would have been challenged to KO Khan. He knew that. Khan had feet as fast as his. He knew that. Khan was/is a busier fighter. He knew that.

Doesnt mean much with his opposition level...maybe if his form held up against better fighters, you would have a great point. You almost had a great point there.

Firstly, there's no reason why a fight with Khan would have prevented Mayweather from fighting Maidana at a later date. There's no reason Mayweather wouldn't have fought and beat Maidana having beaten Khan. Despite my personal dislike for the man for who he is outside the ring, inside the ring he is one of the all time greats.

Secondly, never have I once claimed that Maidana beat Mayweather so either you've got me confused with someone else or you are projecting your own subconscious doubts on to me. In fact, considering how many times you have presumed to know how I would react I would say there's a lot of of projecting going on.



I thought Mayweather was Mayweather's biggest promotor? Are you suggesting he is a lesser star without Khan? Seriously, give the man some credit. He deserves more respect than this.

subconscious doubts? Lol, your pathetic reverse psychology attempt aint gonna work on me man. Secondly, I aint projecting nothing on you individually, I was talking about your kind in general, having delt with them so many times. Some of you are open books, some are in the closet just like you except you don't realise the closet you hiding in is made of glass, so we can see right through to your agenda.

Rematch at another time? What kind of nonsense is that? When has anyone ever been spoken positively about when they didn't rematch a 'desputed' decision immediately? Why you think he rematched Castillo immediately, or Maidana? Why you think Fury and Wlad are rematching immediately? You just talking out of your ass now.

I won't even go into how pathetic it is that you trying to twist my words into 'Khan is a bigger star than Floyd' or 'Floyd is a lesser star', that one right there has just confirmed your ******ity, I won't let you drag me down to your level.

All the Khan haters don't seem to realize or accept the fact that Khan is right on this one. Floydie would've went bonkers trying to run from a speedy slick boxer like Khan. Yeah, Garcia beat Khan, what, 3 1/2 years ago?, as did Prescott, what, 8 years ago. So what? Tough challenges sometimes equal tough results. As for Brook, Khan has said recently that fight could happen. And last time I checked, just so he eventually fights Brook, it isn't a duck.

Meanwhile, along with MANY other fighters, Floydie definitely ducked Khan. But the Floydiots don't have a peep to say about that now do you?

I guess Floyd ducked Mundine too, and Karim Mayfield, and all the other bums that called out his name without doin nothing to earn a super fight with him.

It's also funny how you guys make the excuse that Khan was KOed three years ago to justify that Floyd should fight him, when some of you guys are using the excuse that Pac was KOed by Marquez FOUR years ago before MayPac to justify your excuses that Floyd cherry picked Pac after getting KOed by Marquez.

after 10 years of praying every day that a brotha would beat klitschko... another white guy did it and you have to go back to watching 122 lbers slug it out

His form held up well enough against Marcos Maidana. Is Maidana **** or something? Khan has demonstrated his offensive tangibles are plenty solid enough to make a case for. My point is better than yours. That's for sure.

Prescott's your daddy.

What exactly IS Khan 's style? He doesn't have one he can call his own, he usually tries to do what his trainer tells him, then reverts to back peddling when smacked in the face, a la vs Algeri, Peterson or Maidana. He's faired better against second tier southpaws like Collazo and Alexander, hasn't done anything impressive for four years!

Ducking, to me, is choosing not to face an unavoidable challenge. When your opponent is the best choice, sporting and money-wise. Khan has always been "just another choice". He never put himself front and center with a standout performance and actually refused a title shot that would've done just that in hopes of a handout. Imagine if Collazo, Alexander and Algeri was Alexander, Brook and Thurman. THEN we wouldn't speculating on intangibles like an imaginary style, but a resume that can't be denied. Khan is a self entitled publicity whore that would rather get stretched by Canelo than risk losing to Brook.

As asked, did Pacquiao duck Khan too then?

Dress it up however you want, it's fine. You tried to put words in my mouth and build your straw man up just to burn it down and it didn't go your way. I wouldn't worry about it.

Rematch at another time? What kind of nonsense is that? When has anyone ever been spoken positively about when they didn't rematch a 'desputed' decision immediately?

No. Fight Khan, get him out the way and then build to a bigger fight with Maidana. He had an off day in the first fight. It happens. Perhaps having shut Khan down earlier in the year he'd be a little more focussed, do Maidana like he did in the second match and they'd be no need for a rematch but who knows..

I won't even go into how pathetic it is that you trying to twist my words into 'Khan is a bigger star than Floyd' or 'Floyd is a lesser star', that one right there has just confirmed your ******ity, I won't let you drag me down to your level.

You know you're very emotional. It's strange to think that what really is quite a minor criticism of Mayweather's career could elicit such an emotional reaction from a grown man. Honestly, this started out as a little joke about Mayweather subjecting us to Khan's annoying whining and you've really taken it to heart. What is wrong with you? Mayweather's successes are not yours, you do know that, right? It's not healthy to live so vicariously.

It would have been interesting to see what would have happened if the punch Chino hit him with that hurt Floyd bad at the end of the round was in the beginning or middle of the round. Would he have run around for his life like Khan or gone down? Would have been great to see how he would have dealt with that.

We have seen how Mayweather reacts to getting hurt against Mosley who hurt him more than Maidana did. Unlike Khan, he didn't run or go down and out.


There's no mystery when it comes to which fighter has the better chin or reaction to hard punches.
