Khan showed a lot of heart.

Sure it does. It's hypocrisy at its finest from you, as usual. You want to criticize a guy for his faults that ACTUALLY gets in the ring on a consistent basis, as opposed to one who doesn't.

 

The fight was signed before he lost

 

How? How excatly does activity level translate to heart? So if a guy fights 4 times a year he has more heart than a guy that fights twice a year? What you're saying is seriously lacking in regards to logic. If a guy decides not to be more active because he lacks heart, then wouldn't that show up once he got into the ring? You can sit here and fling all the names you want at me. That's not going to change the fact that are saying doesn't make any sense.

 

I give Khan credit for knowing the importance of a little comedy in the ring. He made my night with his "1-2 Kangaroo" and ended it with the "Baby Deer" which for the record, is my favorite Khan dance right after Zab Judah doing the "Dougie"

 

If you're interesting see seeing displays of 'heart' watch the special olympics. Talent and heart aren't enough for Khan to succeed, he needs skills.

 

Yeah he did show a lot of heart, But no chin. None.

 

I'm sorry if your delusional rationalization has once again let you down, but the stance you're taking about Khan making mistakes, is in fact, hypocritical.

A guy comes into work on time every day, never calls in sick, and takes all the work thrown at him. He makes some mistakes and his boss pulls him aside and calls him a failure.

Another guy calls in sick routinely, only works 2 months of the year, but does excellent work when he's in the office. Boss calls him aside and praises him for his work.

That's hypocrisy. That's what you do.

 

My stance is in no way hypocritical. You either don't understand my position, or don't understand what the word hypocritical even means.

Ok, it's obvious, you don't understand what the word hypocrisy even means. You also don't seem to understand how the real world works. Furthermore, you keep trying to change the argument in order to support your illogical point of view.

This is a results driven world. It's nice that Khan gave it his all. However, he made a bunch of mistakes and failed miserably. I'm not trying to write the guy off or anything, but he did fail. He should be criticized for his performance and he should be trying to work to correct his flaws. He's a professional, he's supposed to give it his all. I simply see no reason to applaud a guy doing what he's supposed to do. That in no way makes me a hypocrite. You only throw out that word because you don't undestand it's meaning and because you have a personal issue with me.

Not one part of anything I said in regards to Khan's fight has anything to do with hypocrisy, or Floyd Mayweather and his activity level. You're simply pulling things out of thin air.

 

I was dissapointed, but hey, that's life. This is boxing, and one big punch can change everything. At least Khan went out on his shield and showed heart, and really that's all you can ask for as a fan... you can only do your best. It's going to be interesting to see where he goes from here, he can come back but it will be tough.

No excuses though, Garcia caught him with a hell of a shot and deserves praise for doing what Maidana failed to do.

 

A classic case of more guts than brains.

 

Give props to Khan for trying to dig in, bite his bit, and fight hard under heavy fire. More props

for not making excuses.

 

The example I gave above is a perfect analogy. You know it is. The fact you espouse Mayweather's inactivity yet will **** on Khan makes you a TOTAL fraud and hypocrite. It's OK, I understand how your lack of objectivity would blind your understanding of a perfect real-world simile even a child could comprehend. It's all been spelled out for you as clearly as day. You are total JOKE for a making a comment like that about a fighter like Khan while on the other hand having Mayweather as an avatar.

I'm not even a fan of Amir at all, but am willing to give him credit for taking fights on a consistent basis, often in another fighter's back yard. Two things Mayweather can't say about himself at this point.

 

Ton of heart.

Hell there was even a moment in the fourth where I thought to myself:"No **** he is coming back!"

 

It was a terrible analogy and it says a lot about you that you think otherwise. If I own a company and one guy comes in everyday, gives it all but keeps ****ing up, while another guy comes into the office less often, gives it his all when he's there and does terrific work, I'm going to prefer the latter employee. It's all about the bottom line. If you don't understand that, you don't understand the business world.

You have to be trolling me here. There's no way you're serious, you can't be that stupid. You're the one who brought up Mayweather. All I said about Khan is that I'm not going to applaud him for doing what he's supposed to do, and that he failed on Saturday. Neither one of those statments have **** to do with Mayweather's activity level.

This is a joke. How can you question my objectivity when you are the one resorting to personal attacks? Nothing I said in regards to Khan lacks objectivity. What I said was perfectly objective and you responded by bringing up an unrelated subject.

Ok then, so you're basically saying that fighters should not be expected to have heart and give it their all, and that we should applaud those that do. You're also saying that activity level is equivlent to heart. So according to you, a guy who fights 3 or 4 times a year has more heart than a guy who fights twice a year.

Do you even stop to think about what you're saying? First off, that fight was in Vegas and Garcia is from Philadelpia. In no way is Vegas Garcia's backyard. Khan is a GBP fighter. They need him to fight in the States to make money off him, which is why he fights over here so often. If they could make more money with him fighting in the U.K, that's where he would be fighting.

As far as Khan's activity level compared to Mayweather's, there's a few issues with that. First off, they are at two completely different points in their career. Khan is going on 26 years old and is just entering his prime. Go look at Mayweather at that age, and you'll see he was just as, if not more active.

Also, Mayweather is 35, a point where it's expected that many fighters will or will have already, retired, he has an assortment of injuries, he's a ppv fighter unlike Khan, and has a more limited pool of opponents, and he makes a ton of money which decreases his need to fight(do you think Tiger Woods plays in as many tournaments as an up and comer who makes a fraction of the money?).


Lastly, your assertion that activity level is equivlant to heart is completely ridiculous. There are a whole host of reasons why a fighter would be inactive(many of which I already named), if a lack of heart was one them, it surely would show up in the ring. You can't give me an example of Mayweather lacking heart in the ring, because there are none. With that being said, you somehow claiming that I'm a hypocrite because I say that we shouldn't applaud fighters for doing what they are fully expected to do is completely baseless, illogical, and nonsensical.

Your problem isn't with what I'm saying, it's with me. You can't successfully attack any of my points, you can only attack me. If your problem really is with what I said, then your thought process is completely off base and you have no idea how to defend a point of view.
