    Yeah but khan really didn't deserve the fight now did he? He got dropped in his previous fight up to that poll and looked horrible. Where as maidana came off a huge upset win over broner and had a belt. He was far more deserving as noted on this site when the poll was put up where maidana won. Pbf was dumb for making that poll in the 1st place khan is more known to casuals than maidana but on boxing forums maidana won the poll going away. Pbf should have fought khan since he won the general poll but he would have been bashed for it on boxing forums because he was not their choice.

    Deserves got nothing to do with anything Pimp. Straight up, without your excusing bull****, Floyd said he would fight the winner. He fought the loser. That's a duck in my book.

    You worry WAAY TOO MUCH about people bashing floyd. You really shouldn't give two ****s about it...

    Jlc didnt fight hatton at lw so that has no bearing at what he did at lw.

    I loved chico but he spit out his mouth piece in that foty with jlc and you know it. Jlc had a great run at lw and is probably the best lw of the era, who's better?

    No, he didn't. But after cheating he scale to beat Diego @ LW, he beat NO ONE.

    So.. WHEN, as in what years, made JLC the best LW of his "ERA"? What wins??

    Y'all repeat that so often should be easy to answer.

    Im not excusing it i said he should have fought khan but people here wanted maidana here and on boxing sites had he fought khan instead people would have said he fought a guy who was undeserving and ducked maidana who beat a undefeated cheap imitation of pbf in broner

    I asked you who was the best lw of the era and you refuse to answer. I dont need to tell you who he beat at 135 hell a boxing record search can tell you that. What it can't tell you us who was more deserving of the best lw of the era Lance. Answer the question instead of side stepping the question.

    Khan is a speedster who can be timed so easy. Just wait for him to rush in and catch him straight down the pipe. Crawford dropped him exactly because of this. He rushed in with no regard for defence and got clocked perfectly.

    Floyd's laser accurate right hands would time and crack Khan.

    Floyd ducked Khan, Margarito, Prime Cotto, Prime Pacquiao, VADA testing, Maidana's gloves and Erik Morales.

    Don't give me that ****. I Asked you a question FIRST sucka! And I can see from your post, you have no ability to even answer it. You are already scared to type it out. YOU will just repeat that line all the time.

    Oh...people on this board wanted Maidana... so that trumps the thousands that voted for Khan... Dude... you don't have to defend EVERY ****IN THING about Floyd.

    Beating a cheap copy, in Broner, is what makes one deserving?!?! Are you freakin kidding me?! That's dumb crazy!!!

    Also, on the replay it looks like Danny is looking away when he landed one of those hooks that put Khan down. Which speaks to Amir's lack of head movement.

    He threw that punch to where he figured Khan would have his head. Amir was not a difficult fighter to hit.

    I think he should have fought him or Danny Garcia instead of Berto. I also think it’s an interesting fight, for the first 5 rounds. Khan isn’t anything spectacular, Mayweather would eventually land on that chin.

    Even Khan one of the most delusional fighters there has ever been does not think he could have beaten Floyd.
