who's he beat ? had 3 fights.....2 of whom are LWWs in his last 2 WW fights ie Algeri and Alexander...they are career LWW fighters not WW. Also both are not noted punchers. Algeri is the most pillowfisted this side of Malignaggi! Alexander was a good win....well seemed it till Alexander went and lost his next fight also vs Aaron Martinez....??? Then we have his 1st fight at WW against a true WW in Collazo who was old past it and sports a 44% KO ratio. I am believe or not a Khan fan - he's very fast and pretty skilled...however he is testing the patience and losing a lot of fans with his delusions. At WW Khan is PROTECTED. He has Haymon looking after him with some prime CHERRY PICKING of opponents. He is GREEDY AND DELUDED trying to get Kell Brook to take 20% of the money in a UK mega PPV fight. I really hope Brook does walk away from him - he really doesn't need him. He has a belt that will attract many other top fighters and potential unification matches....walk away Kell let Amir take lesser money elsewhere!
Its a pitty he actually has real good talent and the style to beat alot of fighters, He really needs to man up and fight Brook who gives him a chance to make 1- Probably the most money outside of a Pacquiao fight (Mayweather is retired at the moment) 2- A chance to win an IBF title 3- Recognition as the best British Welterweight
Fear is the reason why he's stalling. If he's gonna take a loss that ends his career against Kell he wants paying hugely for it. So he tries for an 80/20 split in his favour. That alone makes me start to dislike him despite supporting him in all his previous fights.......I cant stand the hypocrisy and GREED. Against Pac he'd have been the B side...would he have taken 20% split here ? I doubt it!
Uh...no it didn't? atsch Hatton..... Um... Heck I'll even throw in Marquez even though he starched Pac at 147..
Smh Just to remind you you said fighting at WW against people who were JWW, k? Ortiz last fought at Jww in 2010 and NEVER went back and never will it's called growing up, and he weighed more than floyd fight night Maidana?! Eh? Ur going five years back when he even went in that weight, he is a big WW dude Hatton I agreed Was a Jww but it wasn't hattons first fight at the weight Sharmba Mitchell was FLOYDS first fight at 147 not to mention over a decade ago, Mitchell had two more fights at WW before giving it up he obviously couldn't make Jww anymore. Edit, I forgot Judah. Floyds 2nd WW fight Judah 6 previous fights were at WW.... Your last sentence makes no sense r we picking and choosing times to fit your agenda? I'm not even going to entertain Pac. you do understand floyd's prime was SFW? Or doesn't that count because it's him? Look we know he is a bit of an idiot but he was an idiot who could box.
Virgil has realized Khan isn't dedicated enough...If Khan wins his next fight against a decent opponent I fully expect Virgil call him out on his lack of dedication post fight and tell him he could do so much more than he has been doing.
What has Brooks resume got to do with the argument. You do realise that your comment doesn't negate the OP argument against khan. If you are gonna defend khan, come up with something better then questioning Brooks career.
Khan was learning under Virgil Hunter. Virgil is not the kind of trainer who will fix everything within the first couple of fights. Khan beat Algieri (rather tough fight stylistically, he beat PROVODNIKOV and Taylor). Khan beat Collazo (who was coming of a win against Ortiz). Khan beat Diaz (who was a big stylistic threat). Khan beat Molina (first fight with Virgil after getting knocked out).
