    I hope this happens.

    I love seeing Amir Khan't getting beat up... the overated, overhyped, arrogant, media-darling chump. Has there been a more overrated and overhyped boxer in this generation?

    Neither Khan or Bradley get beat up against JMM.

    ^I would give Bradley a chance but not Khan, he's just too easy to hit and would get knocked out

    Marquez could be 47 years old and still counter-punch the **** out of your boy, anyway give it a year and Khan will finally reach his true level, which is a Journeyman gatekeeper.

    Yeah that's why JMM ducked 2 times already, right now Khan got other business to take care of, let's let JMM enjoy his win right now.

    Khan would get KO'd by Marquez pre-peds. He would die against this juiced up version.

    Ducked? :lol: The age old internet term for ******ed reasoning, the same Marquez that was willing to get in the ring with some of the top top fighters of his era but is running scared from Amir Khan? :rofl

    Darni, there really is no hope for you.

    I don't understand why people speak of Khan against fighters like Mayweather, Marquez, Pacquiao etc. Even after back to back defeats, including a KO, people are talking about his next few fights as if they are a build up to a showdown with Mayweather. There are plenty of other fights that make much more sense, like Mayweather against Martinez, Marquez against Bradley etc. It's like people plain refuse to accept Khan as anything other than elite.

    Khan against Rios is a fight I'd like to see. Khan would need to not only get past Molina, but get convincing wins against the likes of Rios, Bradley, Guerrero etc before you can even think about the likes of Marquez, Pac and Mayweather.

    although a fight vs jmm would be good for the bank balance i dont think 3 losses in 4 fights would be good for his career

    I used to think that Khan would win against Rios, now after careful examination? He hasn't got a hope in hell, Rios will catch up to him at some point, and Amir's flappy attack will not be able deter him, I'm confident of a Rios KO.

    To be fair Bill, there is some truth to what Darni said. It's well documented that at the time, Nacho did not want his fighter to get in the ring with Khan. He made this very clear. It's understandable, because at the time Marquez did not look like a fighter that could compete against the best at 140, never mind 147. He looked bloated, fat, pregnant and on the slide. That was then though, and this is now. At 39 years old he looks an absolute beast, and is comfortable at 147. Ask Nacho again and if the money was right he would take the fight in a heart beat. Easy KO win for him.

    No you are right, and I fully concede that, its the term 'Ducked' I have a problem with, Darni only see's things in black and white ( and no Darni its not a racist term before you start) There are many reasons for a potential fight not to happen, as you stated in your post. :good

    I just pray that Darni will one day realise it himself?

    I think I would learn towards a Rios KO. Rios is one of the most exciting fighters in the world right now, but extremely limited. No defence whatsoever and relies on that epic chin way too much. At some point he will get "exposed", but I'm not sure if Khan is the man to do it. It's not totally out of the question because Rios is extremely limited and is a very basic pressure fighter. More like Margarito than JCC, but without Margaritos height and reach. Still, if Peterson can have the success he did against Khan, then I think Rios can also. He's a tough son of a ***** and as you say, Khan's flurries wouldn't deter him one bit. He would get inside, and once there you don't need to be a KO artist to hurt Khan.
