    The haters are just getting nervous because they know, deep down, Khan is looking real good and is going to be hard to beat. If he cleans up the division (not saying he definitely will, but he has a good chance) they'll say he's ducking the top guys at 147.:nut

    Agreed - although I have reservations about whether he can cope with elite level fighters given questions about his chin/punch power....it's clear he is talented and will cause most of them problems.

    Time will tell....people need to chill and enjoy the fact that there is a new kid on the block....who is threatening (at least) to make waves and shake things up.

    He can fight the spinal version of Maidana, but then you'd be crying about how he was fighting a guy with a broken back.

    Exactly. It's not like the division revolves around Khan. If Bradley and Alexander are two top dogs at that weight, then let's see them take each other on! It would be a FOTY candidate even before the bell rings.

    In any case, Khan's going to have to fight one of them anyway if he wants all the belts.

    At least be consistent with who he's ducking.

    If he says he wants Maidana, apparently he's ducking Bradley/Alexander.

    If he fights someone else, then he's ducking Maidana :?

    In any case, Maidana isn't going to age between July and autumn. What difference is it going to make if Khan fights him a few months later.

    How dare he be Muslim.

    :nono

    Finally, I can't resist asking a last question:


    When was the last time Bradley stopped someone?


    I'm out. :hi:

    Exactly. He wont fight Madiana next. No chance. He'll wait till all these young guns have fought each other and beat each other. I expect him to fight someone like Morales next.

    He could pull someone from the local boozer to fight and his nuthuggers would defend it. It's just pathetic. MAN UP and fight, your supposed to be a champion, act like one.

    Its lucky the ref stopped the fight last night because it was close on the cards. I had it a draw going into that round.

    You're a joke.

    (And for the people who don't know, this guy was exposed as a racist clown in the Brit forum, too.)

    Tbh, he has a loss and is talented enough to outbox anyone at this division so he should just go for it.

    The excuse making for this guy is only rivaled by Floyd fans. I've never seen anything like this. Even to the point of "if and would" scenarios. "If he beat the real King Kong, people would be upset he didn't fight Godzilla." What nonsense from people with no real foundation for their irrational man love.
    Of all the guys in this very deep division, he's the only one that's been demolished by a journeyman. He hasn't fought anyone who throws anything harder than pillows since, and you people (esp. foul mouthed adolescent doc wannabe) act like he's Ray Robinson.
    I'll give him a tune up if he wants it. How bout Breidis Prescott.
    From his ever-so careful management, we still don't know if he can handle anyone who is decent that touches him. The guy may turn out to be great, but he has not earned the right to dictate any terms at this point. I dont' care how popular he is with irrational knobbers. And I don't care how powerful his promotional company is. In the ring, he hasn't disproven any of the doubts people have about him because he hasn't taken on a challenge that addresses them.
    I got no problem with a tune up because he doesn't deserve to talk like an elite, but like I said, how bout someone who can crack. Like a Prescott, or Urango or Katsidis or even Ortiz.
    Prove yourself, then act like you can dictate terms, but before.

    You idiot. I wasnt exposed as anything. I told you I support BNP. Big deal. Fact is Paulie was making Con miss with everything he threw for the first 7 rounds.

    He didn't dictate. That's just what he wants.

    As people have said he has beaten guys ranked 5 and 6 in Koletnik and Paulie, very convincingly. Who else has better wins over the top division (I am not aware).

    The fact that you support the BNP is bad enough (I honestly have no idea why anyone with a functioning brain would even consider backing them, but whatever) but you apparently can't even score a match, either.

    It's true that Malignaggi had Khan missing more than usual, but scoring that fight a draw going into the final round is just wrong on every possible level. Watch it again without the racism clouding your eyes, if that's possible for you.

    Exactly, add that to that they also said Khan would never ever dare to think about fighting Maidana.
