Tim Bradley's Promoter: Khan is scared and a Fraud
Timothy Bradley�s Promoter: �Amir Khan is a Fraud!� - Boxing News
Excerpts from the article:
Quote:
I must tell you that factually Malignaggi is telling the truth as I tried to make a fight with Amir Khan and Tim Bradley and Golden Boy said ‘absolutely no chance,’ ‘no way’ - and I believe that’s the reason why Amir Khan refuses to fight [Marcos] Maidana – he’s scared,” Shaw said to BoxingScene.
Quote:
He’s scared of Maidana. He’s scared of Tim Bradley. What champion do you know is willing to give up his title to fight someone else with no title? And I believe Amir Khan is a fraud. And I’ll believe it until he accepts the challenge to fight Tim Bradley. Until that happens I will continue to say he’s a fraud. We’ll even go back to England to fight him so he feels comfortable, warm and fuzzy in his own country,” Shaw said.
So con boy won't fight Maidana, won't fight Bradley, but wants to fight an blownup 37 year old featherweight with lots of wear and tear on his body in JMM. As people said he's looking for another Barerra fight and hey if another headbutt occurs it's all good.

Shows how much bigger Khan is than Bradley. Khan can already afford to discard alphabets and Shaw needs to bring his champion to the "frauds" backyard ;)

I wish people would tell it how it is more often.
Re: Tim Bradley's Promoter: Khan is scared and a Fraud
Khan is a crock of shit fraud. He won't face anyone unless he has too. Khan/Marquez is a strange matchup and they are looking for a repeat Barrera fight. It won't happen though. Marquez will mutilate him so bad that they have to sell him in the kebab shop.
Re: Tim Bradley's Promoter: Khan is scared and a Fraud
Khan probably thinks if he fights another old Mexican he can headbutt him til he cant continue and still get a technical decision but that wont happen in America.
Khan just keeps avoiding fighters and he's supposed to be a world champ.
Re: Tim Bradley's Promoter: Khan is scared and a Fraud
You lot have some real short memories. Not so long ago I remember you all slating pacman for not fighting JMM again before the Cotto fight was made. Then you made shit loads of excuses for his loss to Mayweather and now your rating Bradley as a a better match up than JMM for Khan.
Any excuse to hate eh. So really whats the tougher fight for Khan, JMM or Bradley. JMM any day of the week
Re: Tim Bradley's Promoter: Khan is scared and a Fraud
Freddie Roach now says Khan will do a Barrera job on Marquez and bust him up,is that after a class off heads? ;D Roach: Amir Kahn Will Do a Barrera Job on Marquez - Boxing News
Really hope Marquez is the one giving Khan a long and hurtfull beat down.

Re: Tim Bradley's Promoter: Khan is scared and a Fraud
I don't blame Khan really, JMM's a marquee fight and if he wins it will just further burnish his reputation as a legend killer.
Re: Tim Bradley's Promoter: Khan is scared and a Fraud
Roach really makes me laugh...everytime he puts Marquez down I think to myself, "So why did your number 1 fighter and apparently the best p4p fighter struggle with him if Khan and Rigondeaux will destroy him so easily?".
In this sport I find it ironic, the people called arrogant and big-mouths usually seem to be the ones speaking the truth. Mallignagi, Vargas, Haye etc - Maybe truth hurts ;D
Re: Tim Bradley's Promoter: Khan is scared and a Fraud
I am not a Khan fan but it is better for him to fight JMM, Maidana and Bradley in that order
Re: Tim Bradley's Promoter: Khan is scared and a Fraud
Khan wants none of Bradley.
I don't blame him really, Bradley is too experienced and too well rounded for Khan at this point.
A Marquez/Khan fight is interesting because it all depends on what Marquez shows up.
Do we see a slow fat Marquez like against Mayweather or do we see the accurate fast counterpuncher like we saw against Casamayor and Diaz.
I personally think Marquez looked worse at 147 because he was in the ring with Mayweather, the weight was a factor though as his timing and speed weren't what they normally were.
Against Khan, Marquez will be fighting at 140 pounds which is one division below where he fought Mayweather. This is a good thing for Marquez as his timing, speed and power should be sharper. If Marquez is like he was at 135, Khan will be getting a beating and likely ko'd.
I do see Khan causing Marquez trouble with his movement and speed but i see Marquez putting punches together and working Khan's body as the fight progresses, once Khan slows down i see Marquez dropping him later in the fight. Marquez by TKO.
Re: Tim Bradley's Promoter: Khan is scared and a Fraud
I think this is undoubtedly a tougher fight than Maidana & probably more than Bradley still.
My problem with it is this. Khan hasn't earned a shot at an elite fighter like Marquez. Granted JMM lost his last fight badly, but that was against an ATG. It's more the reasons why Khan's team are going for this fight that piss me off & how Maidana, who whichever way you spin it he should be fighting, is getting shafted & instead is taking the high-risk/low-reward route with Cayo.
Khan could solve all his problems fighting Bradley for the lineal championship (which Pacquiao will vacate as soon as Freddie wants to drop Amir in there). Most people on here know that I'm a bit of a Khan fan & actually *cough* buy his PPVs, but this move just pisses me off. I have a feeling if its close, JMM gets shafted. Again (see mssrs. Norwood, John & Pacquiao).
Re: Tim Bradley's Promoter: Khan is scared and a Fraud
I agree with JMM being tougher then Maidana in certain senses but Bradley? No way, it just shows how underrated Bradley in because he would eat Khan alive, he's to polished and well rounded at this point for Khan who in my opinion hasn't found an identity in the ring yet. Make no bones about it, Bradley is the #1 fighter at 140 and the best fighter at 140 imo.

I agree Bradley is the best at 140, but for me I see more danger for Khan coming from a guy with the level experience that Marquez has (particularly fighting guys with longer reaches and great handspeed) than I do with Bradley who whilst an excellent fighter, I still see enough weaknesses in to exploit. Khan for me is a better fighter than Holt or Peterson, but those two still gave Bradley some trouble. I think a Khan/Bradley fight would be a lot more competitive than most people think
Re: Tim Bradley's Promoter: Khan is scared and a Fraud
I don't think Khan is a better fighter then Peterson, so I guess we differ there but I don't see how Khan would beat Bradley on points. Bradley fights to much of every round and I don't think Khan is at all seasoned enough to win enough rounds from Bradley.
Re: Tim Bradley's Promoter: Khan is scared and a Fraud
What does it matter really?JMM is a marquee name with top exposure...literally for Khan....exposure.He'll just get taken deep and counter punched all night,a classroom for young Khan losing to a great.Bradley has been a solid respectable champion,hitting his stride who fights all comers though lacks name status.Not stellar is any one area but top notch in all,and has improved over last two go's...that said he too beats Khan.But via TKO.Bradley is one of the most slept on fighters going,and all he does is fight his ass off and win.Khan wants none of him,but will make better bank on Marquez.

Are you serious ?
Someone obviously hasn't seen alot of Bradley.
If i had to pick who was a tougher fight for Khan between a old blown up superfeatherweight past his prime in Marquez or a prime natural 140 pounder in Bradley i know who i would pick.
Against Marquez, i give Khan a chance because of his size and speed advantage plus the fact Marquez belongs nowhere near 140 and isn't at his best anymore.
Against Bradley, I give Khan absolutely NO chance to win. Bradley is too well rounded for him and is at the top of his game right now.
