Yes, this should be good. 8 pages of frothing, bile filled, eye popping rage directed towards Khan because the WBC have awarded him a completely meaningless "ranking"

Amir is a mere puppet in all this, carrying out the whims of he who is truly in charge.

I blame George Groves.

Expect Khan vs Berto soon, and if he wins then he will be fighting Floyd Mayweather.

Al Haymon gives these guys coming up in weight, a Berto fight before Mayweather.

Berto is Floyd's fluffer nowadays.

Floyd has a 6-fight deal worth $200m , but he must have 6 fights to earn that guarantee.

People forecast that with the right opponents, with PPV, he could maybe earn $250m - 300m from the arrangement.

So fully expect at least 3-4 names that should be nowhere near a ring with Mayweather, unless he gets old overnight and retires quickly.

Read this on eastsideboxing earlier its old news.

I'm sure he has been no 2 in the WBC's 147lb rankings since the turn of the year.

A fight between him and Broner though that is a possibility within the next year :bag:
