well they did duck....![]()
well did you notice at the end of the post I put the sentance
'And that's to name a very few british fighters that have had huge amounts of guts.'
Hamed never really took on anyone that was huge favorite to beat him.
Sam with Joe
Haye hasn't ducked anyone. But again IMO haye hasn't been in with anyone he wasn't favorite to destroy. That will change though when his fight with wlad is announced at the end of the month.
By the way I'm looking forward to changing your name, sig or avatar. Whatever you want.
Sorry but which elite fighters did fight their defining fights when the other guy was at his best?
Didn't Floyd Mayweather wait until Sugar Shane was almost 40?
What about Calzaghe and Roy Jones and B Hop?
Or Lennx Lewis and Tyson and Holyfield?
How often does it happen that a young pretender faces the true champ in his prime? Very very very rarely, because even if the challenger is bold enough to want it, the champ will avoid him to get some easier defences.
Khan is just being honest. Plus he's Manny's team mate and friend, it's just courtesy to say that if he wants to fight him to also add that he would time it when he's slight past his best. If he said he wanted Manny and could beat him now that would cause friction in the Roach camp don't you think?
I'm not a fan of Mayweather. Infact I hate the guy, I think he's an ass. That being said, I don't think he owes us, the fans, or anybody else anything more once he fights pacman. It's time to get off of him. The man can't fight until he's 50. He doesn't owe every up-and-comer a fight. I see him going away for another 2 years after (if) he fights Manny. He may come back if everyone starts talking about some other guy being the G.O.A.T. and is around his weight. But I don't think he owes the fans anymore if he fights Pacman.
Well, good luck with that...
Seeing as he loses to Paulie on the 15th, I can't even begin to fathom how he would go about accomplishing this.![]()
