Amir khan: mayweather ducking me

[armyash]

He will never fight prescott..what a sham. Prescott will fade away..

100% correct. it's got to be, Khan now doesn't need Prescott at all in terms of where his career is at and the match will have lost it's appeal for many after the Mccloskey defeat.

I will always acknowledge Khans achievements in the future and i'm sure he will go on to bigger and better things but i will always hold it against him that he didnt try to avenge that loss.

There was no reason for it not to happen. Was good profile wise, money wise, personal development wise. I'm sure he has a lot of advisors etc who get a say in his career who would have avoided the rematch like the plague but as a man Khan should have wanted to over rule everyone.

oh well fuck it. I'll always watch khan fight but a piece of me will be hoping to see him get spanked again for it.

Khan is a complete retard. It's a shame that they re branded the spastics society, because in traditional terms he could be their pin up. Tosser.

It does not make sense for Amir Khan to fight Prescott at this point in their career. While Khan went on a winning streak since his loss, Prescott went on to lose 3 out of his 7 fights, the most recent was just a few days ago. Khan is not going to gain much from this fight. If he beats Prescott, they might just say that Breidis is on a career slide anyway.

The bout would have been great if they did the rematch within a year of their fight but there was no interest in an immediate rematch then since Khan was totally annihilated in their fight. If Khan do decide to fight Prescott, then he should be commended, if not, no big deal. There are a number of boxing greats who never avenged their loss.

And I have accused Mayweather of ducking but Khan would not be one of them.

Like duh, it makes no sense for a fighter to avenge a loss? Of course it bloody does and more so in the past. Khan will always have that hole in his record and it serves him right for never trying to make amends. It really irritates me when people defend blatant ducking.

Utter tosh.

So, what can you say about Juan Manuel Marquez not avenging his loss against Chris John? Is that blatant ducking?

Well, he arguably won that fight. Khan in no way came near to beating Prescott.

Your argument is utter tosh.

Mayweather's ducking me too

Arguably but the record books say that JMM loss by a unanimous decision. And how can you be sure that it's 'arguably', did you see the fight? So to put that 'arguably' to rest, shouldn't JMM have tried to avenge his loss or is he blatantly ducking?

Your counter argument is totally rubbish.

Of course I have seen it, it's on You Tube where everything else in the world can be found. It is a close fight, but Marquez did enough and points were taken away far too easily. Just as with the Manny fights Marquez has a very solid case. Khan on the other hand has no case and so should have tried to atone for his awful showing. The official records are full of holes and dodgy decisions, why should you need to make amends for being ripped off by dodgy officiating? Now being stopped in a minute is a different story. Lewis did it, Mosley tried to do it as did Barrera and yet you have fighters like Khan who run a mile. There is nothing wrong with taking a loss, but a fighter cannot call themselves the best if they fail to at least try and correct a devastating loss. That earns a lot more respect than pretending it never even happened.

My argument is stupendously sublime and yours is utter hogwash and poppycock. Now be gone with you, you naive and silly little child. Before I spank you on my knee and throw darts into my Manny Pacquiao poster.

YES! Seriously, it's ridiculous JMM got such a free pass on that.

Khan is saying all the right things. Right now I see him as the best option realistically for Floyd.

Let's look at the options.

Manny, of course the fight we all want.Floyd does not seem to want this at all, at least not yet.

Martinez, Probably the toughest opponent out there would be Martinez at 154. Highly doubt Floyd would ever consider taking that fight.


After that.............


There is ONLY Khan. Who else has as big a profile and could generate as much money as Mayweather vs Khan outside of the above two?

Bradley and Berto don't bring anything. Cotto is no longer a draw and Chazez Jr and Alvarez couldn't be sold as credible opponents.


If Floyd keeps on fighting it's hard to see how he can avoid Khan if he refuses to fight Manny and Martinez.

Khan needs to keep hounding him, make that fight happen.

I actually think he has a live chance, and he will certainly give it a good go early.

I agree that Khan is the third-best option for Floyd. Probably the only fight besides the two actually great fights you mention that I would pay to see.

But you have to agree that Floyd would get zero credit for winning that fight. "So what, he beat a work-in-progress 140-pounder who's never beaten an elite fighter. Cherry-picking again."

Hopefully Mayweather/Khan can happen, I think it'd be a real interesting fight. Khan and Bradley will both make the step up to Welter. Bradley will fight Pac after a tune up I believe.

Khan v Mayweather and Bradley v Pac, both around Easter I reckon.

Hopefully the winner of both will face off against eachother in the summer. I'll believe it when I see it but this all makes perfect sense for some great Welter action in 2012.

Yeah you can have Champions that are on a run and all of sudden theres someone who just has their number by their style but noone elses number.

So many over the years have let their one loss slide hoping their nemisis looses a few so they dont have to reface them.

Makes me think of quite a few fighters who were too quiet after a shock loss.
