    Khan is the one that passed on the fight in September due to his religious commitments. Mayweather sure as hell wasn't going to delay is already known date for Khan.

    LOL @ ducking Khan.

    Floyd has tried to cherry-pick Khan for years and Khan keeps messing it up lol.

    If and when they fight, it will be in Vegas.

    what there all missing is that mayweather was reportedly denied a visa last month when he was scheduled to visit us in the uk for series of question and answer evening with mayweather shows.

    so unless that was a lie its unlikely he gonna get a visa at wembley so soon after being denied which im gutted about although was in vegas to see last fight.

    He was not beaten by that cheat, Peterson, was robbed by hometown / home country judges.

    Garcia's Dad won't let his son in with Khan again. Not sure why Prescott has not happened tbh.

    If Khan beats Pac, and Floyd does not take him on, then Floyd's reputation is ruined - he will clearly be seen as a ducker.

    When Khan beats him, the refrain will be "but a prime Floyd would have battered him, but, but, but..." Etc.

    See also: Joe Calzaghe schooling Jones and Hopkins.

    I seriously can't believe people think Khan would be competitive with Floyd. The two are on completely different levels. People go on about Khan's speed, but Floyd has the best timing in the sport. It wouldn't take long for him to start timing Khan.

    To our surprise, however, Mayweather revealed a new scoop to us. Evidently, his personal massage therapist, Doralie "Bad" Medina, is starting her own makeup line and Mayweather is partnering with her to venture into the cosmetic industry. [/B



    Next big announcement...that he is GAY. And nothing wrong for being gay, good job Floyd.

    Ellerbe is in the final stages of getting his Promoter's license in New York. Would be surprised if Floyd did end up fighting at Barclays next May.

    Khan does deserve a shot at Pacman and Floyd since much lesser opposition have had there shots already. The only issue is his new trend of hugging/holding fighters non stop case and point his last fight with Collazo. P.S your statement of him being the most feared man in boxing is quite hilarious i seriously hope for your sake that you truly do not believe that.

    concaine has the reputation of getting koed by a gusty wind.

    not promoters' fault.

    worse, he is featherfisted.


    would be fun to see him against pac though. interesting to see if pac kos him at first flush punch that connects.

    arum has said that they've made inquiries as to khan's availability, arum said they didn't get a response.

    i think haymon's fighters are exclusive only to showtime.

    Ghost was mandatory I believe (whether you agree he should of been or not)

    Maidana was a belt holder coming off arguably career best win

    Guerrero is a better than Khan and would knock him the f*** out.
    Chris Algieri is coming off a big win against the dangerous Provodkinov, thats better than anything Khan has done recently

    Khan barely sqeauked by Maidana, Maidana would retire Khan in a rematch.

    Khan also lost to Peterson and got embarassed by Garcia
