    I think this sums it up. He is really good but he can get KOed in virtually any fight. I don't think it is only about the money though. With the split in his favor he might make more money fighting Brook. He is looking for legacy and money realizing that Manny and Floyd are past it and they are there for the taking.

    Khan is probably one KO loss away from his career being over.

    agree with this except ill say that the brook fight is always there as a backup and khan isn't running after $$$ so you can see why he wouldn't take that fight......it's not going to happen in the next 8 months for sure though

    People saying Khan has a big UK fan base, don't be so sure. His last fight in the UK in Sheffield sold horribly, with loads of empty seats.

    When compared to Brooks ticket sales (Slightly biased as Sheffield is his home town) Khans sales were laughable!

    The Pacquiao fight is infinitely better than a Khan fight.

    "Oh Khan is young and fast, he will give Mayweather trouble".

    :lol:

    Please.

    Mayweather-Khan would be a cherry-pick, and of course people would try to defend it by saying "look at all you who said Khan was a serious challenge, blah blah".

    I'd be fine with either fight.

    I do think the Khan has a better shot than Pac at beating Mayweather though

    What had Khan done at that time? Go life and death with ancient Diaz?

    Well apparently he did enough for Mayweather to include him as one of two options for his next opponent :lol:

    A poll that Mayweather said would allow the fans to pick his next fight :lol:

    Why would you even try to defend that fraud.

    Furthermore, how can you defend such pathetic actions

    I guess he didn't expect Khan to win the poll.

    very true but he is in a better position now, especially after the destruction of alexander

    also floyd dont got many options... floyd is gona pick wither pac, kahn, or cotto. i would prefer the fights in that order too if i was able to choose.
