Jesus Christ that's embarrassing. They've never even shared the same ring? Khan really does seem to be fantasist, doesn't he? I'm genuinely starting to think the man has gone mad.

You've got some in the comment second saying Ward is saying that to cover his arse! :lol: ..... Personally I dont think Ward is lying about them sharing a ring together. Im pretty sure I remember seeing an interview where Ward was asked about Khans progress under Hunter and Ward said i dont really know as we train at different times!

I know he's desperate to get the Mayweather fight but he really does sound ridiculous calling Maidana his 'leftovers'.

Khan barely survived Maidana. Does anyone seriously think he would fight MM again? Maidana has come on in leaps & bounds since then, while Khan has regressed.

Is Khan's quote verified ? Khan does spar bigger guys, but I have never seen him train at the same time as Ward, can't see why he would make that up ? don't make sense, he has sparred with many punchers at wild card, that he could use for his argument, Ward is not a big puncher anyway.

He said it on his twitter I think!

With regards to the fight with Mayweather, I would rather see Khan against him, more then Maidana, Khan's speed would would make it more interesting, Maidana is too crude and slow, he does have power, but Mayweather would school him without taking any chances, to a boring points decision, against Khan, Mayweather would go for him and that would make a more entertaining fight

I tend to agree with that even though im not a fan of Khan's.

Agreed. I think Miadana is marginally the better opponent at this stage but Khan will make for a better spectacle.

Dela Hoya's speed gave Mayweather problems, so did Zab Judah, the other thing is that Mayweather counters single shots really well and Amir Khan throws punches in bunches, at rapid speed, don't forget Khan was causing Garcia lots of problems until he got caught with a haymaker, I remember the trouble Norton gave Ali with his speed, yet got smashed by Forman,

Amir, for £100 I am willing to be a witness to you taking clean right hands without flinching from Deontay Wilder.

Caught with a haymaker? Garcia was timing Khan. If Garcia managed that, what do you think Mayweather will do?

I have never said that Khan would beat Mayweather, but he will give him problems, will Maidana ? Doubt it, Floyd won't get hit. Don't jump to conclusions.

Expe, don't waste yourself, such a waste of valuable time and energy, do something more productive.

Khan is certainly the more exciting option but whoever Floyd picks is a soft choice, the American is just so many levels ahead of both Amir and Maidana as well as pretty much every other boxer on the planet.

Took 30 seconds while I was making my dinner, come back when you have something credible to back up what you say. Floyd Mayweather will knock Amir Khan out, see the pictures above.

My life does not revolve around forums and the internet and Mayweather may knock out Khan, my argument was that Khan would be a more entertaining fight then Maidana, don't jump to conclusions.

I would of chosen pacman for the perfect fight, then GGG or Martinez at light middle or even Bradley, they are the best fights out there, in my opinion, but we have been given a choice of two.

Khan would be over a lot quicker, so I'd get to go to bed earlier, but at least Maidana would go in with a puncher's chance, but neither fight really interests me, there's plenty of other fighters who are more deserving and would make for better fights than Khan and Maidana.

This is embarrassing. Now Hunter is trying to claim that when Khan said Ward, he meant Ward's sparring partner :confused: http://www.BS.com/hunter-clear ... ing--74502

I agree he does seem between a rock and a hard place.
