Why does Khan think he can dictate unification process

    Interesting and not at all surprising that Khan wants Bradley and Alexander to fight each other first, considering most people think both are better than he is. Therefore leaving him with the slow-footed, slow-but heavy-handed Maidana to fend off. I think they split the Americans up, one fight Khan, the other Maidana with those two winners facing each other.

    Khan wants to fight Maidana to put to rest the talk of Khan ducking heavy handed punchers since his loss to Presscot. I think its an interesting fight.

    You don't speak for 'most people', so don't try and pretend you do.

    So getting your promoters to pay a fighter to not fight you isn't ducking? If that's not ducking, what is?

    LOL. Haters can't criticise his performances anymore, so find some empty rhetoric to cling to. **** off, everyone wants to see Bradley-Alexander and everyone was calling for Khan to fight Maidana. You stupid ****.

    All him saying is people were all over the place saying Khan ducked Maidaina and now that he wants to face him, its not right.

    If your not planning on fighting them in the future then its ducking. Khan wanted to fight a bigger name on his us debut I don't see much wrong with that.

    He has to fight maidana eventually, I mean the guy is the Interim Champ :lol:. Couple that with the fact that everyone thinks his chin is open to destruction by the guy, then yes he should take it. Everyone wants to see Bradley-Alexander on top of that, so it makes perfect sense to do it this way.

    Well yes he said he wants to fight Maidana next after the fight, then I come on here and read a report saying Khan is scheduling a fight in late July against a different opponent.

    July fight will obviously be a tune up bout, the later HBO date will most likely be Maidana. Is that not ****ing obvious to you?
