I count the Ortiz KO as he brought it on himself.Quote:

Khan's the last person that can be accused of lacking ambition. It's not his fault Floyd picked him.
He was opening a Gym in Dubai. The press asked about the Mayweather fight, he said - "I've signed the contract, we are waiting on Floyd."Quote:

How is that being delusional or even remotely disrespectful? He wasn't "calling Pac out," that's just the moronic headline the pathetic boxing sites put on it. Content. Context. Source.
Seriously baffles me that people cunt off Amir..
He's one of the most exciting fighters to ever come out of the UK, always shows a massive heart in the ring and always comes to fight and was willing to set up shop across the pond and come back from a bad defeat from Prescott and crack on to win world titles.
So what if he's got a suspect chin, he always gets up no matter what state he's in and wants to fight on and always entertains.
I met Amir after he won Silver at the Olympics when he was about 17 and he's exactly the same now as he was then.... just a normal nice guy.
He comes across as a cunt which is why most people don't like him. He also hasn't really earned a shot at Floyd. I think it's a good fight tho and am much happier with this when compared to guys like Maidana or Garcia
Khan doesnt come across as a c word. Thats too strong. Probably a w@nker sometimes.
He wants to be the best and he wants to leave a legacy.
Whether he deserves the shot at mayweather or not (imho he doesnt) no one should blame him for taking it.
Mayweather wins this and I wouldn't be surprised to see him get the stoppage considering how bad Khan's chin is. Khan will be competative for 5 rounds, but he won't last 12 with Floyd IMO.
i always hear the who deserves what shit nowadays, yeah that matters but if andre ward was a HW then he would deserve a fight with wlad wouldnt he? what a shit fight that would be, first one to hug winsQuote:

Must be a horrible wait being any of the front runners (Khan, Maidana, Garcia etc) who Floyd could pick next...
The Guy is that Powerful he can see to it your financially set up for life with the stroke of a pen ;D
I wonder if he (Floyd) sits back and lets all the rumours, begging and self sales/hype just roll on and on until he makes his choice.
definitely, adds to the hype and the $Quote:
