    Saw khan interview yesterday on tv where he said he wants to stay at 140 as its more exciting. Says he can beat mathysse.

    If true, he's got huge stones to match his big heart.

    He is also delusional.

    This is actually true, there are various sources out there confirming this and I'll just drop one link. However, I'm not sure if Khan, as usual, is talking out of his ass or he really plans to fight him.

    I'm pretty sure he's just talking out of his ass as he usually does. Doubt his management will allow this especially when they could secure a big money fight with Mayweather. Maybe after the pay-check against Mayweather they will have nothing to overprotect him from and sign up till he gets knocked out enough to finally retire.

    I honestly can say this if he faces Lucas it will be his last fight, i can even see him ahead at scorecards when fight gets stopped, as Paulie said Lucas does remind of Julian Jackson with his power, and Matthysse has good skills so there is no way Khan doesnt get hit cleanly a lot of time and he will be KTFO!!!

    **** off iron_chin. He hasn't changed his mind, he said he feels like he wants to, but won't.

    He has more nuts between his legs than he does between his ears.

    There is such a thing as having too much heart.

    even Amir Khan doesn't believe Amir Khan has a chance at 147 against any of the top guys

    It takes heart to talk rubbish?, how about wait and see if he's serious before giving him credit?

    i saw this interview, actually if you watch it again you will see, when he is asked if he would like to fight matthyse, he says yes ill fight him, but hes doing it while shaking his head horizontally.

    To anyone who understand body language, his words were saying yes, but his subconscious body language was saying no.

    And he was asked twice and he done the exact same thing, watch it again you will see what im talking about.

    Matthysse has concussive power against khans chin, not a good match up for khan

    He's definitely got heart as shown by his past fights.

    When has he ever shown a hesitancy to get in the ring with the best fighters in the division???

    Hes already fought
    Kotelnik
    Maidana
    Maliganggi
    Judah
    Peterson
    Garcia.

    What makes you think he'd be afraid to get in with anyone?

    The guy has shown his heart constantly
