Thought amir khan was a cherry pick for floyd mayweather?

Khan won the poll but Mayweather opted to fight Maidana, why is that? Mayweather fought Khan and Alexander's left-over and struggle.. That makes Bradley and Porter's win over Alexander even better.. Plus, I am one of the few guys here who thought Khan would give problems for Floyd..

 

I think Khan's hand speeds would give Void problems and it appears that Void believes that also, thus, Void backed out of the fight with Khan.............

 

He's really making that a habit..

Margarito, Martinez, Pacquioa and Khan.. :bart

 

If Khan pulls off a win over Pac, Mayweather-Khan could sell out 3 Wembley stadiums.... just saying

 

I think that AK and MP are former stablemates makes for an interesting fight.
They have sparred many many rounds, fairly sure Freddie Roach has commented on how often AK would get the better of sparring, which of course is different to fighting but indicates that Khan is of a worthy level.

 

He's a cherry pick for both guys. However, when was the last time Pacquiao cherry picked anyone in comparison to Mayweather?

 

Stylistically, Khan has a far better chance to look good against Mayweather than Pacquiao. Pacquiao carries serious power in both hands and if Collazo and Diaz badly hurt Khan then wait till Pacquiao starts to land.

 

He did hurt and stun Khan with a flush shot late in the fight that forced Khan to hold as tight as he could.

 

I think it's a stretch to say Collazo 'badly hurt' Khan, though he did stun him somewhat with a clean shot to the chin. Let's remember though that for all of his 'serious power' Pacquiao has only scored 2 knockdowns in his last 8 fights and no stoppage wins during that same stretch.

 

Lol wtf? He looked the same as ever in his last fight.

 

Rios, clottey...

 

by pac fans do you mean the few on a message board? shut up with that garbage. no one wants to see a khan vs pac fight either

 

It could be that people hold ellerbeweather in higher standard as he's supposed to be the you know p4p best? Idiot.

 

cherry pick in terms of boxing is when a fighter (floyd) selects to fight a fighter that poses lesser risk (khan) than a tougher fighter (pacquiao) available and willing to fight him.

with pac fighting khan, i don't consider it a cherrypick since pac is willing to fight better fighters (jmm, floyd) than khan.

 

Amir Khan beats Mayweather unless he gets KOd.....

Pacqioua is however a horrible choice of opponent for Khan.:nono
