Sonar Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 (edited) Amir Khan vs Floyd MayweatherFight set to be confirmed this week for Las Vegas in MayThe Bolton boxer will take on pound-for-pound king in a mega-bucks welterweight bout at the MGM Grand - and earn himself around £3.5mIt's on: Floyd Mayweather and Amir KhanAmir Khan is set to announce this week that his long-awaited showdown with Floyd Mayweather has finally been given the green light, writes Tom Hopkinson in the Sunday People.A deal has been agreed for the 27-year-old to fight ‘Money’ Mayweather in a mega-bucks bout at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas on Saturday, May 3.Sunday People Sport understands that Khan has already signed his end of the deal – which will net him around £3.5million – and that Mayweather is expected to put pen to paper on his side of the contract following his return to the United States from a promotional trip to South Africa.The fight will be promoted by Golden Boy Promotions along with Mayweather and Khan’s own companies.Mayweather, 36, holds the WBC’s light-middleweight and welterweight titles, with the fight likely to take place in the heavier division.It will be a tough test for Khan, who has fought only once at welterweight, and not least because Mayweather is acknowledged as the best pound-for-pound fighter on the planet by most observers after Manny Pacquiao lost to Timothy Bradley and Juan Manuel Marquez.Read more at Sourceupdate: Fight is off Edited February 27, 2014 by Sonar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kn_andre Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Mayweather is still Undefeated and undisputed Champ ... He has one of the Fastest hands in Boxing just like Sugar Ray ... Though Floyd is a Flamboyant Showman, nobody can deny the fact that he is One of the Greatest Boxers of All time ... Money can absorb Punishment if he meets a Tough Opponent and he also has a Strong Jaw .. He can turn a Fight on its Head in the Twinkle of an Eye because he has knockout Power on Both Hands ... It will take more than Guts for Khan to beat Money ... Clearly, Khan is the Underdog going into this Fight - but who knows ??? Its always the Underdogs that Pose the Greatest Threath !!!

You think Floyd talks silly now, listen to him after Bruce [RIP] gets ahold of him.... :)EDIT: Bruce talked silly too (altho I would rather eat a green furburger than tell him so)! Maybe its a pre-requisite for an ass-kicker to talk "silly:? I dunno. Look, I mean LISTEN to Lesnar, He sounds like a little boy...again Id take the green furburger over telling him so....but its the truth.

kn_andre Posted February 26, 2014 Share Posted February 26, 2014 Yes i saw this last night on the News ... Mayweather comfirmed that he will be Fighting WBA Welter Weight Champion - Marcos Maidana on May 3rd 2014 .. Though its a Fact that Amir Khan has Defeated Marcos maidana before, but that is not taking anything away from him .. Marco is not a Push over Fighter ... Judging by the Fact that Marcos was the First Man to beat Adrien Broner ( Who was formerly Undefeated till he fought Marcos maidana ) So for now, its a Champion Versus Champion Fight ... According to HHH of WWE, Mayweather did " Whats Best for Business " .... Amir should just accept his fate and move on .. I believe he will get another Crack at Mayweather when the Promoters thinks its right and come to an Ageement .... Cheers Guys ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
