Amir Khan not fighting on May 3rd undercard. Claims Floyd Mayweather is 'full of shi

"floyd, homes, I think he's a low-down, dirty, ruthless vato, eh, but I like that, homes. I like that."

 

You must forgive me - I didn't mean that he was going to be in the driving seat against Floyd - rather that as a champion there will be more demand for the fight, he will deserve more money (and will have earned that right), and will no longer be seen as someone that has to grovel to Mayweather in quite the way that he was reduced to recently. 'Bargaining power' seemed like a good catch-all term.

 

I do agree with this also. While as a fan, I appreciate the depth of the cards we have been given by GBP recently, ultimately I see it as a shame that the best fighter in boxing has got to a point where he has to rely on the undercard strength to make people cough up the cash for the PPV.

I was originally gonna give this one a miss - but if these theoretical fights get signed then I would feel compelled to buy the PPV as it would realistically be good value for money. I do feel that the undercard is something of a smokescreen now though to sweeten up what is usually a disappointing headline event. I think Floyd Maidana would maybe do Guerreoro numbers without a strong support cast. No one was clamoring for that fight pre-Broner

 

But Khan has no ring IQ and therein lies the problem. For all his good attributes are negated at the top level because he doesn't fight smart, has no head movement, backs up in straight lines and cannot resist getting in to a tear up thinking he's this big puncher. It will not be a good idea for Khan to fight Brook like an idiot. If he stays on the outside and boxes him, he can win a UD but the moment he lets his discipline go, he's in trouble.

I would fancy Brook to take him.

 

The only person full of **** is Amir Khan, for electing to go on a cocaine binge, counting chickens that hadn't hatched (Mayweather fight), instead of fighting Devon Alexander.

I have no idea what this guy was waiting on. I could care less what people in his ear said. If he believed that **** Amir really is a dumbass.
