    I don't remember who i heard saying that the only chance Khan has is to make the fight boring. And it's just a chance at being somewhat competitive, it might not work as expected, and Khan always fails to stay disciplined for 12 rnds anyway...

    Khan may do marginally better than those 2. He might win maybe 1 or 2 rounds.

    I think GGG is just being nice. He can't bring himself to say anything bad about anyone. He knows Khan is going to be good boy'd by Mayweather.

    Give me a break. GGG would steamroll Khan in three rounds.

    Khan skillwise is better than anybody on GG's meager resume.

    At least Khan had the nuts to move into a more competitive division.

    What? Who has Khan fought in this new "competitive division" with these nuts you speak of? Do you know anything about boxing or do you just pretend and run your mouth?

    I've answered your assertion regarding GGG's resume at least 5 times. Be a good parrot and pick another song. "Squaaaak, resume! Squaaaak, resume!" isn't persuading anyone at this point. It's been refuted too many times. When top fighters won't get in the ring with you, your resume will suffer, but what should be telling to everyone is the fact that top fighters won't get in the ring with him.

    GGG will move into a new division once he's maximized his money draw at MW. Ward needs time to up his fan base too before they can do a big PPV fight that they all have envisioned for GGG/Ward. Ward himself said it could be a big PPV fight down the road. Down the road. Get it?

    Fighters reach far in the sport to start charging PPV to earn more money, simple as that. You don't risk your very life in this sport and go far to satisfy keyboard trash that can't afford PPVs.
