    It'll happen after Floyd-Garcia. And it's a terrible ****ing fight. I would not pay a nickel for this ****.

    It would probably be the end of Khan's career. He would get obliterated.

    Mayweather needs to fight Alvarez next and go from there.

    I'd probably go to it if it was in England.

    If I could get my hands on a ticket that is.

    It'd be an irrelevant fight, that I'd watch only for the Lulz

    What is the point of a Rematch for the Garcia fight? Khan got drilled. He won the first round I had the 2nd a draw then got schooled in the 3rd and 4th.

    There isn't really a point for a rematch.

    Yeah.

    Only chance in my life I'd ever get to see Floyd live though.

    Plus it would be sweet seeing Khan getting ****ed up live!:happy

    How has he attempted to redeem himself?

    He's fought Carlos Molina(WHO????) and Julio Diaz ffs.
     
  8. khan is just trying to cash out.

    he doesnt deserve the shot at all

    It's a poor match, as Mayweather would easily win (most likely via stoppage) but it's probably going to happen at some point, as Mayweather still has a few fights left before he retires.

    Apparently Mayweather and Khan have sparred...I wonder how that session went. Considering that Khan keeps going on and on about wanting to fight Mayweather, I'm assuming he didn't do too badly in that session.

    this would be a really bad mismatch

    12-0 decision for Floyd or a late stoppage

    Prefer Canelo but I sure is not going to be Canelo, Khan or Garcia. I'm sure the front runner is Alexander if He beats Purdy almost sure of it. He was close to done deal, but mandatory status make Guerrero the frontrunner in Mai. I expect the Floyd fight would be for a unified title or Alexander vacating His belt.

    Happy for Amir because he's my favorite fighter, but happy about the fight? Hell no, it's a horrible fight because he'll obliterate Amir.

    It would be an exciting fight would last 4 rounds but will be **** because Khan earned it by beating Diaz
    That means basically out of Berto/Maidana/Lopez/Thurman whoever wins their next fight deserves a shot too

    Not at all. Khan's stylistic framework can trouble Floyd but right now he's taking a step to rebuild and later take two steps forward. He's trying to work out his defense and needs to maintain his offensive strengths while doing so, and that will take time.

    You can offset the fasting by doing charity work if need be. Also I'm pretty sure last year was the first year Khan has ever participated in Ramadan as a professional boxer. There's no doubt in my mind he'd take the fight. He's not devout like its portrayed sometimes.
