    That's what the Marquez bout was all about. He was going to drop the belt and take that fight rather than face his mando - Maidana.

    "he never mentions Tim Bradley".......he recently admitted he aint ready for Tim Bradley

    "he doesn't want to fight Maidana".....Freddie Roach and GBP won't allow him to fight Maidana

    "calling out a 37 year old light weight that just got beat in his last fight".......That 37 year old is JMM whose last fight was Floyd ****ing Mayweather

    "brits will say Marquez is ducking Khan"........Brits will say Nacho Beristain has advised Marquez not to fight Khan

    Fanboys and haters........get some perspective

    I ****ing hate when a fighter holds a title hostage, with no intention to unify or even fight the other top dogs of his division

    Paulie would be the fight for Khan. I think Paulie could still khtfo, but it would be much less likely.

    Only if Urango agreed not to hit Khan in the head the way he agreed not to hit Berto in the head. Backroom deal.

    Nope. No 'dropping the belt' involved at all. Golden Boy promote Khan and co-promote Maidana and want the fight to be bigger before they put their two fighters in the ring together, so were looking at an agreement to not enforce the mandatory. Khan gets a bigger name fight, Maidana gets slots on HBO, both get better known in the US.

    Nothing particularly to do with either fighter, both of whom would fight anyone put in front of them.

    Khan said he isnt ready for Bradley. And they don't want to fight Maidiana.

    Hopefully the fight they really want Pauile Malignaggi happens. That is the fight everyone wants to see.:deal

    Not me! We already know the outcome...
    And it's exactly what a lot of the so called 'haters' said; "He's not going to fight Maidana, not Bradley, not Urango, not Alexander but featherfisted Malignaggi." And that's just what's happening now.

    So take the belt that saysd WORLD CHAMPION from his waist. Dont stand getting pictures taken holding up 1 figner to signify "I am no. 1"

    What was the point in the Kotelnik fight ?

    No wonder British boxing gets such a ****ing slagging

    Building up Maidana? :huh

    All of a sudden he's a commodity worth building up, they never seemed to be trying to build him up before.

    Don't try to sell that. They bent over backwards to get Maidana to agree to step aside.

    before you start quoting this kinda ****,just wait and see who is named for his next fight,he has mentioned bradley in a recent interview and said he thought tb was the top jww at the mo and its a fight he wants in the near future,but hes just not quite ready for him yet,alexander and urango woudl be outboxed easily by khan the same to with maidana oh and khan already beat the man that bet maidana

    you think its only british boxers who duck people... pathetic

    is mayweather british ? is JMM british - no, yet hes ducking ;) maybe not in some peoples terms, but taking a fight and then maybe not going ahead with it can only be called ducking

    whats so wrong with khan taking a few easier options first.... hes still young & very very green in some areas, whats wrong with him being cautious
