Re: Danny Garcia vs Amir Khan, ordered By WBC!
Brook-Khan doesn't sell regardless of what happens to Khan. Being based in America, and so inactive, has made him borderline irrelevant in the UK. He never has been involved in a massive selling mega fight. He's the A-side against Brook but not by a million miles, they need each other for a mega seller.
Does he risk his career getting binned in a massive payday against Brook or keep picking up a million squid a fight in the States? You can see why his team are ducking Brook.
Even Floyd told him this week he should be fighting Brook :D

I think he should go straight at it and skip those.
Yep, that's a bit lame. It would be funny if Berto were to deck him.

Wouldn't rule it out. Berto if anything fights with his entire upper body, very physical and still quick hands with a brick from some random angles. I thought Berto had a fight with Peterson set up anyway?

If Khan loses, and it's definitely possible he gets timed/chinned again, he has to have at least one rebuilding fight and hope Brook keeps winning in the meantime before he can go for the payday. And he may not get more than 50/50 with another loss. Another loss knocks the fight's PPV/ticket marketablility in Britain too.
The WBC would be fine letting Khan/Garcia both have one fight more before they fight each other. Money talks. Is Khan really going to risk his biggest career payday to fight Garcia for a nettage of around half a million quid? He's not getting any younger, he's obviously after big money fights and as he gets older and his time without a belt gets longer is he really going to keep ignoring the big money fight he can have?
Couldnt disagere more. If Khan wanted a big money fight he could have had the Brook fight. Hes after legacy so definitely wants to avenge Garcia loss. Khan is worth over 30 mil. I dont think the money matters to him that much.
I kinda hear what you're saying hear . Maybe he does want legacy like you say, and that's why he waits on Floyd and Manny and because he's worth a few bob, he won't take fights that he "thinks" are below him.
That doesn't mean he isn't deluded or arrogant. And it doesn't mean everyone should cater to his every whim.
At the end of the day, in this sport, you should have to keep proving yourself and you shouldn't get by on name alone . I know it doesn't always work like that.
I also appreciate that Brook needs to fight some top guys for the same reasons.
I definitely never said Khan isnt deluded or arrogant. He clearly is.

Re: Danny Garcia vs Amir Khan, ordered By WBC!
Khan gets an awful lot of credit for two rounds against Garcia, that's all he won, two rounds. Garcia was completely overawed with Khans speed in the first 6 minutes, that's hardly surprising. Garcia dominated the third with body punching and should have had a stoppage win there and then. Baylis went from wanting to get Khan killed in the third to not wanting to give him a chance in the fourth.
Khan 'can' beat Garcia, I don't doubt that, but Garcia is the favourite for me. He knows how to beat Khan and it's a pretty simple formula.

I haven't heard about this, has it been mentioned? I heard his Dad say they want to fight in March, but never said who.
I can't believe it'll be Berto, aren't they both in the same stable?
Could be Rios I suppose, he's a bit of a punchbag that Khan will look good hitting, but if he starts walking through Khan's punches, he could make Khan look average.

That simple formula is difficult when you can not find that chin with a new trainer and improved defence.

Re: Danny Garcia vs Amir Khan, ordered By WBC!
Khan throws one of the sloppiest 1-2s I've ever seen.
I don't think Khan has improved under Hunter.

Re: Danny Garcia vs Amir Khan, ordered By WBC!
So, after what's happened this week , how many people still think that Garcia is gonna give up his title to avoid Khan? Oh yeah, that's right .:rolleyes:;D

Forget about Khan, He's a fucking clown. My point is that people actually thought that Garcia was so concerned about Fighting Khan, that he would duck him , based on an interview where Garcia's Dad says "Garcia will KO him" and "If that's who we have to fight, that's who we'll fight, we're not ducking anyone".
Some people like to read "what's behind the statement " rather than what is actually said.
For all this Khan "Brave" bullshit, he has avoided anybody decent in his division . He had 2, yes 2 World title options on the table and he swerved them both.
"Garcia will duck Khan!" 😂😂😂😂

To be fair Khan is now fighting for the middleweight title and if he wins it he will demand Floyd to come out and win the one tile he has not won.

Re: Danny Garcia vs Amir Khan, ordered By WBC!
I don't know if this means anything..... but I don't like Canelo and yet I'll be rooting for him against Khan. :o
Bottom line:
Canelo should be expected to win this circus-type mismatch. If he does win... no big deal. On the other hand, Khan has used up all his "Patience-Points" with me. All he does is whine about this and whine about that. He embarrassed himself begging for Floyd and happily did not get the shot. He's avoding Brook, as far as I'm concerned. He feels this sense of entitlement based on what exactly? I don't like loudmouths..... and Khan has a much bigger mouth than Canelo. So here's to an early ending to that fight, so Khan can go back to fighting a normal fighter's schedule.

I've told you before mate, he ain't coming back, especially not for Khan. After all the shit Khan has spouted off, Floyd would never give Khan the payday. 😉

Re: Danny Garcia vs Amir Khan, ordered By WBC!
The Wbc really does routinely make a mockery of themselves. The Donald Trump of professional boxing.
Only in the Wbc can one first order a mandatory defense involving Khan at 147 while allowing their 160 champion to skip a mandatory defense twice with musical weights while still allowing the same 147 fighter in Khan a crack at their 160 title against the present title holder who has yet to fight at that weight yet has single handily changed the maximum weight of the 150 year old division to 155.
When one fail is simply not good enough.

Great post, all bang on and very factually correct, makes you think.
That Video looks like me one day when I was pissed up on a treadmill 25 years ago. Trust me, it fucking hurts.😂😂😂

Call me old fashioned, but I would rather see people fight other people in their weight division, to see who is the best. If I wanted to see Khan fight someone 2 weights above , weighing over a stone lighter on fight night, I'd go to the Circus.
Canelo should fight GGG , Khan should Brook or Garcia , end of . There is no excuse whatsoever for those fights not happening. They were mandated and they were done deals!
I'm not gonna lie, the thought of possibly seeing Khan in one of his typical jelly legged KO's is appealing.

'Cause you're a boxing fan.
Boxing is boxing and the circus, well....... it's bearded ladies, two-headed dwarfs, and 140-pound guys fighting 190-pound guys.

If it is a 1 (or 2 or 3) round blow out then you will know what a wasted fight it was for both boxers. It will knock Khan unconscious and his confidence of fighting a puncher.

Fine line there between "think" and "want".
