Re: Boxing 2012

Seems Hatton will be going for a Squash match but has set the 24th of November as the date at the MEN Arena (Manchester) Khan seems determined he'll be in the ring in November too.

Calling it unlikely that Khan's the opponent as it's not a squash match by any means.

Your typical boxing fans have been quick to dismiss the Mayweather/Pacman possibilities giving the reason that neither of them need to face Hatton and have both previously beaten him which is all fine and true but we all should know it has nothing to do with how good or how poor the other guy is, It's how much money the fight can generate. A fight against any of these two would be a substantial cash-in.

I feel like Mayweather has achieved all he can achieve now. The only guys that want to face him are the up and coming young fighter's who haven't a clue what they are actually getting themselves in for. Getting in the ring with Floyd would put a hefty mark on those undefeated streaks and so on. Mayweather has nothing left to prove. Pacman will never and probably never could beat this man. Mayweather adapts to his opponent's style and proceeds to dismantle the guy piece by piece and I have no doubts that would happen to Manny also.


Khan's opponent?

Kell Brook? Would propel Khan back on track and could make Brook's career should he win. A loss for Khan I'm afraid would spell the end of his career.

Garcia II - Unlikely for me, I feel that Garcia know's prior to a fluke Knockout punch he was being totally dismantled in the ring and was looking close to bowing out himself in a few more rounds. Khan would stick to a gameplan this time whilst Garcia will be over-confident of KO'ing him again which would land him in trouble coming forward into the blurring speed of Khan. Garcia won't be in any hurry to take a rematch up. In the mean time, Garcia has opted for Erik Morales.

Lamont Peterson - Grudge match so to speak with Lamont having 'cheated' in their previous encounter along with some dubious scorecards. Lamont is no trouble for Khan in the ring and is someone Khan should really be putting out before bell.


David Haye - Well there's only one fight David has any interest in and it's Vitali. It's 50/50 at the minute and could go either way and we'll not find out for some time. If Haye catches him, Haye knocks him out, If he lets Vitali throw the jab of death then he loses on points that's the way I feel about it. according to Fury & Price, Haye has ducked the pair of them. That's a load of crap. Quick talk to get your image up somewhat, neither of them would tell him that to his face and neither of them would dare step in the ring with him this early in their careers. What would Haye gain from knocking out two guys with no credible fights to their name.. and destroying the British Heavyweight division in the process.
