Contracts signed for khan-diaz at 143 in uk.

Diaz is being underestimated by many on here. The man can punch. Sure, he's past his best but we all saw Khan shipping punches to a powderpuff lightweight in his last fight. Diaz can knock him out. He beat Porter in his last fight IMO.

 

Sounds like fight of the century! I wonder who'll they'll find next for khan, rummaging through the graveyards, for opponents.

 

Weak as **** fight. Init

Had he offered Vyacheslav Senchenko, Juan Manuel Marquez, Humberto Soto, Tim Bradley, Josesito Lopez or Jessie Vargas good money he might have landed one of them. Team Khan are cheap ****s. init

 

Yeah because it has nothing to do with it being a **** fight ah, :roll:

 

It was nothing to do with money, you ignorant moron.

 

Its ALWAYS something to do with money

 

Low ball offers at a weight class that doesn't exist more like.

 

And ''Team'' Khan are well known for their generosity and honesty.

Saj is my hero.

 

It's not that they're cheap ****s. It's just that, during this rehabilitation period, it's a good idea to fight in the UK to maintain/reignite interest here. Because when he jumps back in with the Garcias and the Petersons, he'll be staying in the States for another long duration and alienate his UK fan base more.

That's probably why Diaz has been chosen. For a fight that's just a practice-run until he's given another crack at Garcia, he [Diaz] won't cost them and arm and a leg to bring over.

 

Khan always seems to get the shitty end of the stick in these debates, he seems to be held to a different standard. He is coming off the back of a couple of losses, one a devastating stoppage and still people want him to jump in with the cream of the crop.

Every fighter who gets KOd goes on a rebuilding exercise just to regain confidence. Look at Ortiz and the run of fights he had after Maidana handed his arse to him, no one batted an eyelid about that because its quite normal for a fighter like Ortiz to rebuild in that way.

 

:deal

"B-b-b-but he talks a lot" :dead

 

sarcasm is hard to determine over internet, now i know you are taking the **** but less acknowledged posters might think your serious

 

i don't buy this rebuilding bull**** anymore. if they wanted to rebuild him they would put his marriage on hold and squeeze in 4 fights for him against decent level opponents, instead hes fighting twice a year. I think his team knows that there limited to the risks they can take with him and are going with the safest options, i suppose its good for him as he can earn money but we as fans are left out.
