    Let's hope it doesn't happen in 2012 either.

    Let's just hope Matthysse wins and it doesn't happen in 2011, 2012 or any other time.

    Amir shouldn't be cherry picking an old legend way pass his best fighting in a division he shouldn't be in.

    Good, its pointless to see khan beat up a shot legend and then act like he is similair to manny because he also beat barrera and morales...
    Let morales win the fight then do what he wants, I still hope bradley shows up to fight khan in december.

    It would make him similar to emmanuel for cherry picking a shot legend. Amir would have Tijuana like emmanuel had Oldsley.

    he beat legend by headbutting him .... which is a pretty much a standard in Khan's arsenal

    Not quite. Morales would be achieving a feat nobody thought he would in the first place, and be fully deserving of taking an easy defence after going through two extremely tough fights with two young monsters (Maidana and Matthysse).

    Pretty fair to me ... not mention that it would make more sense for Morales-PAC IV or Morales-Mayweather (they are the same size right now).

    Yes he is ducking khan. No excuses he doesn't want any of him. Don't worry morales fans will understand he won't lose face.

    Morales is a smart guy, he knows he doesn't stand any chance against a fast boxer like Khan.

    Yep he well aware of it, but it cool he has done enough as a boxer he can get some easier pay days although I think his next fight he will get a gift decision.

    I think if he is able to beat matthysse he wil face maidana again, if matthysse wins he will probably face khan.

    He has good reasons for not committing to a Khan fight straight away.

    The cynic in me thinks Khan's handlers won't bother with the WBC belt if Matthysse is the one holding it.
