    Outwith Manny,he's had one stay busy fight at 140 since he went up in proper shape.How do you conclude that he's ducked Khan?
    You're another Khan fan who thinks because Amir comes on TV and says he's offered some ATG a fight and the ATG says no it's a duck.The truth is Amir offers derisory opponent-style wages,which means that no realistic offer has been made.If you have a Winky-style knockback then you have something to discuss here,but until you can prove that Khan made what Marquez considers a satisfactory offer,then you have nothing.
    Like I told Ironchin,if I offer you five quid,no travelling or training expenses,no accomodation and a fight outside my house,you saying no does not constitute a duck.It constitutes a derisory offer which you're perfectly entitled to decline without fear of consequence or implication.
    But it's there if you want it.:bbb

    Good fight. I see Marquez winning, but wouldn't be surprised if Khan pulled it off.

    Instead he went for the biggest slice of the pie in Pacquiao and outboxed his ass only to get shafted by the judges...Yeah, the same Pacquiao who would destroy every single one of those dudes you listed, Khan suffering the most devastating highlight reel KO. :deal

    Morales and Marquez are both old legends

    who should retire sooner than later

    Garcia and Khan both have the edge on them

    Garcia might have trouble with a fit Marquez however

    i will fight you for 5 quid outside your caravan.

    provided you're 150-170, and provide me with a post-fight full scottish breakfast.

    I think this would be very very risky for Khan.

    If an old Marquez is risky fight for a young out fighter like Khan then Khan should just retire and forget about becoming a new P4P star.

    JMM's uppercuts would land and I'd actually feel sorry for Khan. He will definitely be susceptible to those punches and it will lose him the fight in devastating fashion.

    I used to think Amir would keep Juan on the end of his jab and win a decision but not any longer.

    After seeing Amir fight more, I consider him a puncher. His style sux against counterpunchers.
