Khan claims he'd be 100-0 if he cherry picked like Mayweather
Khan: I'd Be 100-0 If I Cherry Picked Like Mayweather - Boxing News
People hate Khan because he says dumb things like this. Floyd's resume is much better than Khan's and he has 3 losses on his record. Prescott was also a cherry pick to keep his record going, and he got flattened in a round. I'm on the fence about Khan but he's been cherry picking soft punchers for the last few years to try and keep a Mayweather shot alive. If you're going to goad Floyd, use something with a bit of truth in it.

Re: Khan claims he'd be 100-0 if he cherry picked like Mayweather
Guys that beat Khan - Prescott, Garcia, Peterson - Floyd would have obliterated.
Khan's a great one to talk about cherry picking. His last fight was against a guy coming off a brutal beating at the hands of Pac... and he gave Khan a very tough fight!

Re: Khan claims he'd be 100-0 if he cherry picked like Mayweather
The way I see it; Kahn is a player and a player-hater. That's the lame part of it.
Delusion in boxing is fine but it doesn't mix well with obsession. Kahn needs to focus on Khan before Khan goes full blown loopy with it.
Me, myself; I won't call Floyd a cherry picker but he has 'managed' his career exceptionally well.
Lotta subtext there ;D

Khan may have still been knocked out a few times if he literally picked cherries for a living.
-
Re: Khan claims he'd be 100-0 if he cherry picked like Mayweather
Khan has not got the fight with Floyd so now he is not bothering being diplomatic and just throwing the toys out of his pram.
Good for him.
Now watch if Brooks says a derogatory comment about Khan, Amir will not fight him claiming he is being disrespected.

Re: Khan claims he'd be 100-0 if he cherry picked like Mayweather
If you read that article he says undefeated records mean nothing and uses Cesar Cuenca to support his theory. He says he doesn't know who he is an asks "who is he?"
The answer to that question is that a guy who is 48-0 with only 2KO's is probably the favourite to be Khan's next opponent
-
Re: Khan claims he'd be 100-0 if he cherry picked like Mayweather
Khan said that "the legitimacy of your opponents is what matters".
Oh, you mean like ancient Collazo, ancient Barrera, ancient Diaz, Alexander who had already lost to Porter and Bradley, and had gifts over Matthysse and Kotelnik, and Algieri, who got floored six times by Pacquiao?
Floyd's resume absolutely SHITS on Khan's.

Nice!
So I guess Khan is happy he got KTFO by Prescott and Garcia, then. It somehow makes him a better fighter that those fights happened.
I know one thing, if he was undefeated... he'd have gotten that Mayweather fight. So I guess undefeated records do matter, in this case anyway.

Well it has not got Brooks or Thurman the fight with Floyd, so your theory is blown out of the water right there. :)

Yeah but come on now, Amir has a much bigger name value than those guys and his name value would be that much bigger if he hadn't lost those fights. You Brits would still be fawning over him and demanding a fight with Floyd and it would happen.

Does Khan really have a bigger name value? Mayweather and his team don't seem to think so. And although I'm not in the States, I don't believe he's really that highly thought of there either.
I did say a long time ago, Khan isn't going to get the Mayweather fight , so he might as well just abuse Mayweather at every opportunity, and it might just get in people's heads.
But his character assassination has started way too late, and now he just looks like a whinging twat!
Khan doesn't really believe any of this shit and he's a cock really. Deep down , Khan is now worried about who he fights next, because he can't keep avoiding punchers and top fighters in the division. Exactly who will he fight?

Re: Khan claims he'd be 100-0 if he cherry picked like Mayweather
What really bugs me about Khan is that he keeps insisting that he's a big draw, and on Floyd and Manny's level, in spite of OVERWHELMING evidence to the contrary.

Any good boxer could have the bogus undefeated record Mayweather has IF! they had NSAC/Vegas 100% behind them like Floyd has had

Any good boxer? What about the many Floyd has beaten without needing any help, which surely even your dumb ass could admit is the case....

Re: Khan claims he'd be 100-0 if he cherry picked like Mayweather
When they announced Berto, even PBF fans musta been like
"Jesus man it is hard enough to defend you."
Fuck Floyd, never has such a good fighter been hated so much.
The thing is he could probably beat someone much better, which makes it look so much worse.
Like if his limit was someone in Bertos class then it would be fine but he JUST beat Pacman then has a massive drop in class.

Re: Khan claims he'd be 100-0 if he cherry picked like Mayweather
Khan has now lost all my respect , that is a stupid thing to say.
Firstly Khan would have been Koed by many a fighter , secondly using an unbeaten Diego Corrales as an example , how can Khan say Floyd hand picked opponents ?

I used to get really annoyed with Khan, but now I just outright laugh at the things he says. A comment like this one is so out there it is quite hysterical. ;D

Yeah, didn't he "buy" all those followers so that he could rig the Khan/Maidana vote off? And even that never worked.
Nobody talks about Khan in the UK, nobody talks about him with any respect in the US, and the only person who regularly talks about Khan is.... KHAN!

Re: Khan claims he'd be 100-0 if he cherry picked like Mayweather
For his own sake, his promoter should monitor his twitter, his facebook and everything related to social networks and he should forbid him to make any interviews where he simply embarrass himself.

I assumed he was a big deal in the UK. He is a silver medalist and one of the current top talents from England.

Hearn and Brook talk about Khan, Khan talks about Floyd , but Joe Public doesn't talk about Khan.
He was a Silver medallist about 3 million years ago. Most of the public wouldn't even remember which Olympics it was. (I do btw for the record.):)

One of my biggest regrets in life was that I decided to go out on the piss on the night of the Prescott fight and missed him getting sparked out live, didn't like him before the his first loss, didn't like him after his first loss

WTF does 'name value' mean? Bullshit value, hype value? Says it all, Khans only credentials for a Mayweather slot are that he gets on telly a lot doing dumb ass interviews. His PR bills and Oscars investments in him look distinctly unlikely to be repaid, Ha bloody Ha, you have to walk the walk..... And he aint.

Re: Khan claims he'd be 100-0 if he cherry picked like Mayweather
I am not a fan of Khan's and he does not have a great record at welterweight to justify a fight with Floyd but what he did at light welter should not be ignored. he took on anyone and everyone, Bradley avoided him.
If Khan had the same attitude at welterweight he would have either got knocked out or forced a fight with Floyd by now.

Did he though? Really? Or are we just listening to all the shit that comes out of this deluded sap's mouth? Bradley fights everyone , and offers to fight everyone. I can't see Bradley being too worried about Khan. I might be wrong.

Bradley had unified after beating Devon and wanted to go up in weight. Khan wanted to fight him but Bradley moved up, not to avoid him but to earn big fights.

Bradley had unified after beating Devon and wanted to go up in weight. Khan wanted to fight him but Bradley moved up, not to avoid him but to earn big fights.
So Bradley never avoided him then. Like you said, he moved up for the big fights, and to be fair , he fought the best he possibly could. Pac and Marquez were top lb 4 lb fighters and the only one he never fought was Floyd and that was impossible because of the promoters and tv deals they had. Too many people (and I don't mean you) listen to Khan's horseshit and think it's true.
As much as I'm saying he wouldn't give 2 fucks about Khan, I have to admit I would be worried that Bradley's indiscipline would play into Khan's hands nowadays. That's the only chance Khan would have against him or any of the other top , top, WW's.

This is one of the funniest posts for a long time..... But..
Khan had always said stupid stuff, and yes he is vulnerable, but
He is courageous and brave as well as stupid. He, like Master said took on all comers at light welter and when he does get clocked in a fight he jumps right back in there. The fact that he never rematched Presscot seems to be s black mark that everyone had hanging over him, but actually his team did well in rebuilding him by facing other fighters after that. He like everyone would love to fight Floyd for the wonga and kudos, even in defeat. He certainly is more relevant than Berto however you spin it.

Re: Khan claims he'd be 100-0 if he cherry picked like Mayweather
I hate to quote VD, but he really is A mere con. Guy is a legend in his own mind. He's a decent boxer with a china chin. End of story. But I agree more of a challenge than Berto.
-
Re: Khan claims he'd be 100-0 if he cherry picked like Mayweather
Khan is a phenomenal boxing talent.
The problem is that his chin lets him down, and he doesn't have the ring IQ to protect his chin consistently.

Khan is getting better at the weight and that chin is now tucked in and tight. Khan would give Thurman and Brooks a good boxing showcase.
