“Ortiz went into it with, I think, the wrong game plan. Everyone thinks you have to go in there and rough him up. Everyone thinks to fight Floyd, you have to go rough him up. Obviously I’m not going to give my game plan away, but I don’t think that’s the right way to beat him…I’m exciting to watch; whether they love me or hate me, they gonna watch me. I think that fight with Maywether, next year, will happen in London or in Vegas. Mayweather’s dream is to fight in England. Everyone in the UK loves him. I have a lot of fans. It would be big over here. The fight will definitely happen. I mean, he fancies his chances against me; same do I against him. There’s too much money for him to not fight me…I have the speed, the accuracy, and the movement. A lot of fighters who fight him just come forward and walk in straight lines, like Marquez, Ortiz, and you seen what happened to Hatton, and Mosley was very stiff and static. I’m a completely different fighter. Okay, all these fighters have lost; I have too. The only thing I have over him is I’ve lost and I’ve tasted defeat. That’s what I have over him. It’s hard to handle the fear of defeat, trust me,” stated jr. welterweight champion Amir Khan as he shared his thoughts on Floyd Mayweather’s 4th round knockout victory over Victor Ortiz. You don’t want to miss what else he had to say as Khan is confident that he has the right game plan to be the first to defeat Mayweather some time next year. Check it out!
BJ: Amir, how are you doing?
AK: Good, thanks.
BJ: Right, I’m gonna get straight into it. Mayweather-Ortiz fight, what’s your take?
AK: It was exiting to watch and, you know, it was going to be an exciting fight either way. Ortiz went into it with, I think, the wrong game plan. Everyone thinks you have to go in there and rough him up. Everyone thinks to fight Floyd, you have to go rough him up. Obviously I’m not going to give my game plan away, but I don’t think that’s the right way to beat him ’cause that’s what Floyd Mayweather trains for. He trains for people to come at him, try to rough him up, and Mayweather has the best defense in the world.
