    If Khan beats Paulie I'm sure GBP will find a way to avoid the elite again.

    Until he signs to fight any of the elite he is a fraud, simple as.

    Look at Bradley, what a hero, taking on all comers left right and centre, he's the guy you should idolize Darni.

    :lol:

    Thats why Khan at this stage of his career has more than what Floyd had at this stage.

    Khan has already got his own promotion company.

    Since when was JMM and Hatton 'featherfisted'?

    Did you see when Hatton was fighting Pacquiao. Before it, everyone was saying Hatton's power would make the difference etc etc, so seriously, I wouldn't bring up Hatton being featherfisted around here.

    And JMM is not featherfisted. So I don't know how you can bring up that point at all.

    And even if they main boys do get eliminated (which I don't believe), Khan will still have to face the guy that comes through, right? That wouldn't exactly be a 'featherfisted' easy fight, would it?

    I doubt Khan himself is shivering on the thought of fighting Maidana, his handlers are.

    Carefully managed to the side, to let Maidana be picked off by an elite fighter in Bradley.

    My main man is Devon Alexander, but I must say.. Bradley is the ****ing man.

    I have a lot of respect for Bradley, but you see fighters like him have to get more risks to make ok money, where Khan gets good money taking less risks.

    Sad fact of life, Khan was a star at 17, its like winning the lotto

    I never said they were featherfisted, what I meant was they are regarded as medium, low risk / high reward compared to the likes of Bradley, right now.

    Besides, I dont think JMM or Hatton will fight Khan right now, but they have been looking for both of them, knowing JMM is not doing good as a light welter, and Hatton is likely shot to ****.

    Featherfisted or not, they're looking for the easiest money.

    I am not a Maidana fan but why say that he will get exposed when Bradley beats him? So what if Maidana were to beat Bradley? Is Bradley exposed now or that only applies to the guys that lose? Styles make fights and maybe Bradley has what it takes to beat Maidana or viceversa.

    As for Khan, he will fight these top guys in due time. If you can't see he is being well managed I don't know what to say. Khan has to be well mananged because he is a 'MONEYMAKER' for his trainer and promoters. One more loss and his stock will go down dragstically. Sad but true, that is the way it is in boxing. They have to take Khan slowly to build a fan base and become an 'elite', once there it won't matter if he losses or not just like ODLH, Pac, Trinidad etc. did becuase people will still pay to see him fight win or lose at that point.

    Either of these guys is whoopin' Amir's ass, unless he does something amazing against Paulie and changes everybody's mind.

    MrMagic, you give Maidana too much credit. The most likely outcome is that Khan shuts him down in a safe UD, and stops him if he keeps trying to rush in.

    The guys fighting in a couple of weeks, wait until the fight happens before deciding who's ducking whom.
