Re: Floyd wants the fans to pick his next fight.. khan or Maidana
OK lets get this right. Kahn loses to lamont peterson and gets tko'd by danny garcia, and floyd wants Kahn? Why not danny or Lamont? I mean shit, manny gets koed but for one loss. Kahn had to back to back loses and he wants kahn. wtf. LIke I said before, floyd will probably ko Kahn.
But we all saw the video of why floyd doesnt want Manny.
Floyd will destroy Kahn.

Not sure Floyd wants Khan but its a much bigger fight money wise then Maidana. It makes little difference how Khan did again Peterson and Garcia in an objective approach. Both of those guys are boxer/brawlers. Floyd isn't. How he did against them offers little insight on how he matches up against Floyd anymore then Penders loses had to do with how he matched up against Robinson.
Where Manny is concerned nothing has changed. If you think Marquez landed the right hands well try to imagine Floyd. Manny probably wont get past Bradley and speaking of Bradley I agree with @El Kabong. That is who he should be fighting. Khan imo will make this more interesting over the first 4 to 6 rounds then anyone else Floyd has fought for quite some time. Khan does not have to worry about trying to bang out to survive here. He can use his speed and boxing ability in this fight more then any fight at the elite level that he has had. Every once in awhile styles do make fights.

Floyd is taking the piss, he has no respect for either of these opponents. Only us Brits are really interested with Khan but most have the sense to know he will get beat.

Yes Khan will get beat . but then again anyone else will to.
Maidana is fighting Broner so he is out , I just want to see Floyd in the ring.

I think Floyd knows these options are unsatisfactory and that's why he's doing this. If any questions the fight he can say "the fans chose this fight"
Hopefully there's something big in store for September.
That's exactly what I thought. If and when the ppv fails it was the fans fault because Floyd gave them what they wanted. I hope they have a decent undercard to help out the numbers.
Re: Floyd wants the fans to pick his next fight.. khan or Maidana
Floyd is a such a scam artist. He gets away with it because people will eat shit and say it doesn't taste so bad.
Re: Floyd wants the fans to pick his next fight.. khan or Maidana
I always fancied Kahn-Marquez for a more testing fight, but time is getting away for Juan.

I just read about 5 conflicting stories about this vote and who's winning?
This one claims its much closer to 50-50
World Boxing News - Mayweather poll update: Maidana 57% Khan 43%

I find it corrupt him getting in the middle of who he should fight anyways. It shouldn't be him involved in this process at all.... by picking one fighter, or two, he has nullified, himself, anyone else deserving. That in itself is corrupt!

Yeah :rolleyes: he got a bet on with sports bet as to who wins the vote?
:D I vote Floyds a prat.
Fight Bradley.
Re: Floyd wants the fans to pick his next fight.. khan or Maidana
Tim Bradley isn't the big name or the flashy guy he is just a hard nosed warrior of a fighter. Not especially powerful, not especially fast, just good all around AND he's undefeated.
Why NOT Tim Bradley?
Maidana has power, but that's about it Devon Alexander outboxed him, Khan outboxed him, Kotelnik outboxed him....who in the world would think "Well Floyd can't handle that guy"
Khan has been stopped and wobbled by some feather fisted bums and IMO other than fast hands he's got nothing to fall back on. I don't know of many people who think Khan can win, they think he might "give Floyd trouble" but I don't want to see Floyd get "trouble" I want to see Floyd get "tested by a worthy opponent"
TIM BRADLEY, he fought and beat JMM and Pac, he more than anyone else has EARNED his shot!
