Amir Khan Vs Joel Casamayor On July 31st O2 Arena

doesn't make sense. You gotta look at it from a different perspective. GoldenBoy is trying to build these two young fighters into marketable talent. By putting them in against each other, you highly risk losing one of your products.

Also, Ortiz wouldn't take that fight for July.

 

Yeah.. but you also seem to be describing a hype job. Guess it's just the nature of the sport..

 

The tired line from his fan boys is "yeah but after this it's onto the big boys".. they said it after Salita, they said it after Paulie, they will say it after this, but he will continue to avoid the big boys, because his handlers know his chin is egg.

 

A fighter can be hyped whether he's average or great. Its the nature of the sport. The guy is 23, and he just fought two top 5 or top 10 guys of his division in the last 10 months. His career will probably last another 10 years. That's 120 months. And although there will be lapses of poor opposition, his level of opposition will on average continue to go up if he continues to be succesful. Its inevitable for any fighter who is in the spotlight.

I think boxing fans act like impatient spoiled brats sometimes.

 

Mas Puto!(LiL *****!)
This is a tought fight for a 35Yr old who is coming up in weight. Not a 5'10" 23 year old olympian trained by Freddy Roach! Oh and to top it off Casamayor has to get a KO to win.

 

weak.....and then he's gonna go for Marquez instead of someone at 140 who can bang. ****ing bull****, he's fighting a blown up shot junior lightweight

 

Nah not Marquez that would actually be interesting. Most likely hell fight Ricky Hatton after this fight. Then Nate Cambell, then rematch Malignaggi LoL

 

Casamayor is one of my favs ever,when he was in his prime never ducked nobody,and was avoided for many-incluiding Floyd.He was there 3 times against the great cprrales,beat him twice.
but now he will be used to feed those new champs and improve their resume.Its unfear to see casamayor at almost 40,fighting the young and strong Khan,in England and in a division where he had only fought once-against a nobody.
hope he collect a good check and retire after this,and i hope he doesnt get hurt.

 

it would throw a wrench in HBO's Plans if Casa were to Spark him with a str8 left hand

 

Lazarus at what stage will yourself and Darni realize Khan is a cherry picking hype job joke? How many more fights where he avoids the best will it take?

Khan "calling out" Maidana, who is injured and has been paid by GBP not to fight Khan is friggin hilarious.

 

Not the fight everyone is clamoring for, but I get the move. Stay busy and build the anticipation for the bigger fights, they'll come. Khan is only 23 and there aren't many avenues to explore after this bout other than the big fish. Patience, people.

 

lose-lose fight for khan.
Pathetic. This better be free on TV/SKY.

 

Not the fight we wanted, I hope Casa can put up a fight.
