    Khan-Marquez pisses all over Khan-Maidana/Bradley. Maidana/Bradley are nobodies compared with Khan/Marquez. Simple as.
    Only in ratings and notoriety. Bradley is BY FAR the most accomplished fighter at 140 right now. BY FAR. Maidana v. Bradley at 140 is much more significant for the division than Khan v. Marquez. Marquez hasn't even ever fought at 140 and Khan hasn't fought anyone in the top ten in the division at 140. Be real.

    Fenster, it's ok we understand you are a Khan nut-hugger. But, fact is fact, Khan is being protected.
    Don't be silly. I'm not a nuthugger of any fighter.

    I'm telling you dummies how boxing works. It is about money. Khan earns lots. He has the potential to earn lots more in America - hence HBO and Golden Boy.

    Bradley is the top man at 140 but a complete nobody compared with Marquez. Even powderpuff Paulie is a bigger draw than Bradley.

    And Khan BEAT the man that beat Maidana. You need to be real, son

    We all have our favourites Fenster, it's easier to admit it. But, you're right with your arguments about Khan & HBO, even if I would rather see him in with Bradley.

    From Dan Rafael today (ESPN.COM)

    • Maidana agreeing to fight Cayo is part of a plan in which he's agreed to delay his mandatory fight with full titleholder Amir Khan, Schaefer said. "Everything is worked out," he said. "Maidana is going to continue to be the interim champion and we're going to promote three fights for Maidana, including March 27, and it will lead to a fight with Khan. We'll build Maidana here in the U.S. and give him great fights, and the same with Amir. If they keep winning, then you'll have the big fight sometime next year." Schaefer said a fight he discussed with HBO and Maidana, which Maidana is interested in, is a match with the winner of the March 6 Devon Alexander-Juan Urango unification fight, which HBO is carrying. Another one would be for Maidana to face the winner of the planned May 15 fight between Victor Ortiz and Nate Campbell. Maidana stopped Ortiz in June in an upset. Schaefer also said Maidana is open to facing titleholder Tim Bradley on Showtime. "The point is, there are a lot of great fights we can make in the division," Schaefer said. "We discussed the Bradley fight, but Maidana didn't want to fight him at this point, the main reason being is he didn't want to wait to June, which is when I think Showtime's next available date was. But he would fight Bradley too."

    Hatton taught HBO a lesson on the rating power of the UK fighter... does khan have that power yet? i really doubt it but you can't blame them.

    To be totally honest i really think Khan is getting too much flack as you know I'm one of Khans biggest critics but to be honest this is a massive fight for him and if he comes through it with his chin he deserves major credit.

    still think he'll lose but hey no complaints on this matchup from me.

    Come on Khan

    and Missy i thought i was your favourite

    Pfft.. cheeky sod.

    If using perfectly sound reasoning to demolish Calzaghe haters makes me a nuthugger then yeah I am
