    mayweather told khan if you want to fight me in may to not in a million years fight Pac in case he loses which will lose him money because it will make the fight with mayweather and khan not as exiting

    also khan is signed with al haymon

    Stop trolling, the only decent point you bring up is about Khan being more deserving than previous opponents. Not many people seem to have a problem with Khan fighting Pacquaio.

    As for the Algeri vs Pacquaio fight, there are better options but it's by no mean a poor choice especially when people were harking for Pacquaio to fight Provodnikov, a guy who Algeri beat. Anyway, I can't fathom why people are surprised about Pacquaio fighting an in-house fighter, it's business as usual for Arum.

    Pacquaio will fight anyone and everyone. He isn't ducking Khan. I think Khan vs Pacquaio would be an intriguing fight and the build up would equally be as exciting. The problem is Khan draws big viewing figures and Espinoza has said that he's got a showtime contract. I doubt they would let Khan fight Pacquaio on HBO.

    You obviously do give a **** about him, you post in nearly every topic related to him. You even try to pass the Peterson loss as a legit victory for Peterson, a boxer who admitted to taking performance enhancing substances in their fight. That's how low you'll go to discredit, Khan.

    Beat a top 10 welterweight and then they can roll with the hype of the fight.

    Khans resume is good but he hasn't beaten a top 10 fighter since 2011. His performance against Collazo was good but Collazo had seen much better days but he did what he had to do.

    The other fighters like Bradley,Maidana, JMM, Alexander, Porter and Thurman have been beating good relevant opponents.

    Hell prior to his loss too Maidana you could argue that Broner deserved a shot over Khan. Beaten all the good men in the 130+135 divisions he was number 1 moving up to challenge at a new weight.

    Khan beats a Guerrero or a fighter along them lines and then he warrants a shot imo.

    Many felt the same way about Maidana vs Khan, could see Khan moving in and out to score a points win, fast straight shots.

    But Provodnikov power means he has a shot of a ko even late in the fight.

    dont get me wrong, i've always liked khan when i first saw him against Salita. Quick and great combonations....however, during his bad run in, he has been calling top teirs trying to skip the ladder....if you put it this way, do you think brook deserves a fight with khan? to me, brook is just skipping the ladder to the top..so my answer is no, brook does not deserve a match.
    I agree with most of the stuff you said, base off his attributes and resume and fan base/money generated, he should be next in line for neither (pac/mayweather) one. Its not even if he beat a legit ww, because pac's last fights are 140 pounders, so idc if he beats a ww to earn a shot... pre-maidana vs mayweather, khan did not serve mayweather. post-maidana-mayweather i believe he should be up next. just my opinion because no one esle should deserve a fight with mayweathe more than khan.

    So mayweather has said that he's going to be releasing he's 2015 surprise fight on September 13th. The two theory's of the people his going to fight are Manny Pacquio or Amir khan at Wembley stadium. if he did fight one of them, do you reckon it'd be a good match up & either of them having a chance of winning.

    I'd say stylistically they'll throw in a good fight for floyd. What do you guys think?

    Most are saying he just wanted pacquio to get out of his prime. But....
    Pacquio has just beaten a primed & undefeated timothy bradley.

    *****5exuals like Maryq can not stop obsessing with Pacquiao. WHY? Because they are jealous little pinoys.
    Its sad when his own countrymen don't support him, because he never threw a few pesos your way.:-(
    But you give head to all the Bakalas in your province for less :|
     
  14. Why do people think Mayweather will fight at Wembley Stadium?

    First of all, that's not a big surprise. Most of Mayweather's viewers are in America, and we wouldn't give a **** if he fought at Wembley. His surprise will obviously be more significant than Mayweather fighting at "Wembley Stadium" LMFAO

    EDIT: I know Mayweather would love to fight in England, but it doesn't make business sense. The rest of his future fights will be at the MGM grand.
     
  15. He's just bitter because he has a small dick. Let him vent.
