A Mere Con's comments in the ring after the Paulie fight..

What a stupid comment. So why did he bother fighting for the WBA strap in the first place. Should he just spend the next 5 years fighting bums until he ''matures''. Bradley's 24. Alexander's about 23. These guys would jump at the chance of big fights.

It's also amazing that Khan turned down a fight with Pacquiao. I don't know of any other fighter that would walk away from the biggest pay cheque he'd ever get in his life.

 

Why aren't Bradley and Alexander fighting each other in that case?

Hasn't happened.

 

Is that why they aren't fighting each other?

Alexander is facing an opponent that Khan basically shut out three fights ago.... who hasn't fought since I believe.

Talk about double standards!

:rofl

Alexander can't get big fights. Neither can Bradley. Whereas with Khan, he is a big name etc so he can get the big name fights but just doesn't want them.

 

of course he's not fighting pac, he would get owned

why would he make a move like that when he still has stuff to do at 140?

 

Fighting each other wouldn't be a big fight?

Why is Khan v Bradley a big fight and Khan v Alexander is a big fight, but Bradley v Alexander isn't?

 

What about the rematch with the guy that KOed him in 1 round?

 

Alexander holds two of the three main titles.

Bradley used to be WBC champion, but seems to have delusions as to how much money he ought to be making, let's be honest he's not built on the win over Witter the way he ought to have done.

If neither can get big fights it ought to be a message - fight each other. A win over Kotelnik means next to nothing, Bradley is testing the water at 147 but without taking a big risk he ain't getting a big fight.

Khan shouldn't really be criticised any more for taking the Marquez vs Diaz winner or Katsidis than either Bradley or Alexander.

 

Why? Khan has beaten better opposition since then and Prescott has lost to worse.

 

bradley alexander would be epic

alexander would own him though :X

 

Anyone with sense knows A Mere's china chin will get shattered when he steps it up. Roach is good at protecting fighters through careful match-making. So it may be a LONG time before Con fights anyone of note.

 

I know what your mean. He needs to get his finger out and fight some one decent at his own weight.

 

I'm sure Amir Khan felt great after the Malinaggi fight(a solid win that you can't discredit-Paulie is an elite in the 140 division) and wanted to take on Maidana who he feels is a solid puncher and who he could win against but I'm pretty sure his managers/trainers were upset with him when he said that and talked about it with him later saying that it doesn't make financial sense yet(which it doesn't). I would stop hating on the guy though, he's trying to make a living just like all the other boxers and he will eventually fight those guys if you give him a chance.
