Is Khan vs JMM or Guzman plausible?

[CutMeMick]

Taeth, been drinking again?


I mean seriously why would a P4P fighter in his right mind make a fight with Amir Khan? I mean seriously? You've gotta be kidding be kiding?

Stay busy fight until they find other opponents... As I mentioned JMM wants top names.

Khan aside from money brings nothing to his legacy.
I mean absolutely nothing and that's what JMM is after.
The money is a plus.

Khans spees will giva just about anyone problems but doesn't mean much.

I disagree, I think JMM first priority is MONEY at this stage in his career....

I think JMM is a fighter who hasnt been a huge draw and needs to cash in while he can......I think Khan/JMM can be made for big dollars and JMM will be interested. I also think JMM will think he has a pretty good shot at beating Khan. The big fighters near the weight now are Pac/hatton/Mosley/Mayweather....JMM is down the chain a ways and will be left out in the cold.

There is one thing JMM is fighting for now that's his #1 priority and that's legacy. The money is important but I think he wants more weight on the legacy aspect of his career. Which is why he wants to fight Pac again he went to the Filipines to challenge him. He moved up in weight and fought Casamayor the lineal champ and took on Diaz.
Does that sound like someone who's interest is to make money only?

Let's keep in mind Nacho used to manage them and it was never about money it was about fighting the best. Now he's handled by GBP who ofcourse will make the best fights that will bring in the most cash for THEM as a team which includes the fighter.

I agree that the fight makes money, if you read back on my posts I didn't say it didn't what I said is it makes no sense for his legacy and brings nothing to his career.
If people are saying beating a "pudgy" "young" & "inexperienced" Diaz means nothing then what will be said if he takes on Khan?

I think JMM will see Khan as a big money, well known/hyped young gun that is flawed and may be there for the taking.

I think the winner of Hatton/Pac takes on Mosley who than possibly takes on Mayweather (or vice versa) which leaves JMM in the cold for at least a year and a half.

Khan doesnt seem like a bad option....

When your argueably the #1 P4P fighter in the world AND you have GBP handling your career chances are you wont be left in the cold.

One things certain win/lose or draw JMM will fight whomever from Hatton-Pac and it will be a big fight.

Who knows I mean Holt-Bradley are about to unify the fight can def. catapult them up towards a JMM fight at 140 adding to the fight will be the magnitude in JMM being the 1st Mexican EVER to capture a 4th world title in a 4th div. which would make the event huge. Of course it would be even bigger if it can be done with the winner of Hatton-Pac but that is yet to be seen.

The winner of Pac/Hatton wont be fighting JMM, when Mosley and Possibly Mayweather wait on the sidelines...

JMM/Khan brings more money than JMM vs winner of Holt/Bradley..

It's simple to see why we are disagreeing.

I'm looking at this from a legacys stand point.
You guys are looking at it from a financial stand point.

It's that simple.

I would be disgusted if JMM took on Khan as he has preached about fighting for his legacy.

And Bilbs, Amir is no legend killer.
The only legend killer I know is time.

If anyone here believes that Khan would add to JMM legacy please let me read your reasons I need something to laugh at this morning... I've already laughed at Bilbos.

I'm not saying he is a legend killer mate I'm just saying how the fight would be hyped.

Beating Khan may or not add to Marquez's legacy but how many fights in a boxers career can be legacy definers?

Marquez has just fought back to back against Pacquaio, Casamayor and Juan Diaz, three huge fights. You don't think he might want to take an easier fight and still make the same money?

I reckon he'd actually make more for fighting Khan than he did for Casamayor and Diaz, seriously.


Khan is the second biggest draw in British boxing behind Ricky Hatton and people are queueing up to fight him.

Khan is an Olympian, a top prospect, fast and exciting and he's beaten Barrera.

That makes him a marketer's dream matchup.

Providing Amir doesn't fuck it up by getting sparked in his next fight, which lets face it is never out of the realms of possibility I'd say this fight WILL happen AND it will be huge.


And how can you say you'd be 'disgusted'? Can you name any other fighter in recent times who beat a legend and didn't get a title fight off the back of it?

I would like to see khan fight some in top10.No point in trying to get his career back on track after Prescott fight the chuck him in with JMM who lets be honest Khan has no chance of winning.
