Khan would like to fight Thurman

[Marlo Stanfield]

Khan talking nonsense what a shock

[handsofstone]

I've always defended Khan but in the last year or so its been impossible to,especially since Brook became world champ,Amir's excuses have been ludicrous

I can even forgive him refusing the Alexander fight when waiting on Mayweather but he hasn't learned his lesson and is content to hang around in limbo

[jimcook]

He mustve been talking about UMA thurman! khan is always coming out with crap like this , yet he always ends up fighting pensioners, midgets, or guys who have malignaggiesque power. he will probably end up fighting jo jo dan.

Some great quotes from Karim Mayfield building up his chances at fighting Mayweather...

"I've been the ring with everyone. I soundly beat Herrera, I whooped Pacquiao and Khan in sparring. Shawn Porter refused to step in the ring when he had the choice to fight me or Erick Bone with only one day notice. A lot of fighters have ducked me because I'm a serious threat to anyone."

Khan may end up fighting Erick Bone the way things are going

I will be truely shocked if Khan steps into a ring to fight Thurman. He's blowing hot air, at the end of the day he has to mention Thurmans name now and again to avoid looking like he's avoiding him, i'd say thats all there is to it, he's not going to fight Thurman, no way jose.

I'm getting there too.

I don't mind someone being slightly risk averse when they're chasing an even bigger fight.

But avoiding Brook and talking like he's the bigger draw when Brook is the champion is making him look silly now
And as I said in the OP, he's now talking about opponents that are even less reward for the risk. (Not that I think he will take the thurman fight)
I just can't see where he's coming from.

Hmmmmm Thurman is a big gamble for not much pay off. However it'd love to see it speed vs power but Thurman style upsets Khan tbh

I don't think Khan will ever fight Brook,Khan has this thing in his head about not giving Brook the pay day, and after all he doesn't need the money if he never fought again and he couldn't live with himself if he lost,which is highly likely imo

When will people learn? Khan has been calling out fighters he never had any intention of fighting his whole career

[rd350lc]

If this did ever happen it would only end with the best " funky chicken " we have seen in a while now

I always wanted him to fight Thaxton all those years ago.
