Mayweather gives Khan take-it-or-leave-it offer


Recommended Posts

Floyd Mayweather Jnr has promised to fight Amir Khan next year - but only if Khan beats Jessie Vargas first.

WBA and IBF light-welterweight champion Khan intends to have one more bout at 140lb, most likely against Lamont Peterson in December, before moving up to welterweight and taking on Mayweather.

However, it appears that he will have alter his plans and face Vargas, the unbeaten 22-year-old under Mayweather's wing, if he is to achieve his ultimate goal.

"Once Amir Khan faces the future of boxing, which is Jessie Vargas, my fighter, Amir Khan has a fight with Floyd Mayweather, but he must face Jessie Vargas first ? You got to earn it," said Mayweather.

"He's fought a Zab Judah who I fought six years ago. I fought a young, strong, hungry Zab Judah and he fought a Zab Judah that's a lot older, but we want Amir Khan to fight Jessie Vargas, we're looking for that fight. If Amir Khan gets past Jessie Vargas, then Amir Khan has a fight with Floyd Mayweather."

Meanwhile, Mayweather has lobbied for Ricky Hatton, who he beat via technical knockout in 2007, to be inducted into boxing's Hall of Fame.

"I take my hat off to Ricky Hatton, a true warrior and true champion. We had one hell of a fight when we faced each other and I wish him and his family nothing but the best. Hopefully he can go into the Hall of Fame one day," Mayweather said.

Here's hoping Khan takes Mayweather up on his offer. :)

Funny how Money keeps calling every fighter out except one.

QFT!

"Money" needs to put his "Money" where his mouth is! The world doesn't wanna see him continue to roll over everyone who just ain't good enough. There is one man waiting, go get him Floyd, what you scared of? Winning streak?

    • More Microsoft Account headaches: Office 2024 licensing bug finally gets detailed fix by Sayan Sen Microsoft often highlights the benefits of a Microsoft account (MSA) as it points out the unified access users get across devices and services like Windows, Office, OneDrive, and Xbox, which can help in synchronization of files and settings for convenience. That is also why it is a mandatory requirement during Windows 11 installs. However, there can be major problems too. For example, earlier this month, we reported on an incident wherein a Windows user was locked out of their Microsoft Account when Windows flagged their OneDrive upload activities, and apparently there was no way to recover their account. We discussed how, in such a case, users can lose all their data, especially if it's BitLocker encrypted, which is not all that unlikely on Windows 11 24H2. You can read the story in full in this article here. Meanwhile, on the topic of MSA, Microsoft has finally released a detailed step-by-step guide for fixing the Office 2024 licensing bug. The tech giant had already published an update earlier back in December last year. While that was supposed to fix the issue, the problem likely persisted for many users. For those who need a refresher, users whose Microsoft accounts held licenses for both Office 2024 and earlier editions like Office 2021. After upgrading to Office 2024, the MSA continued to display the older version. At the time, Microsoft only stated that installing the latest version of the Office 2024 app would fix the issue. This week, though, a detailed guide has been shared. The company writes: You can find the support article here on Microsoft's official website.
    • Hey Neowin folks, I’m struggling with my Samsung QLED Q80C smart TV’s Wi-Fi dropping randomly. It connects to my 5GHz network but loses signal every 20–30 minutes, interrupting streaming. Details: Device: Samsung QLED Q80C (2023 model), Tizen OS, firmware updated to latest (May 2025). Network: TP-Link Archer AX73 router, Wi-Fi 6, 5GHz band, WPA3 security. Environment: TV ~10 feet from router, no major interference (tested without microwave or cordless phones). Setup: Streaming Netflix, YouTube via built-in apps; issue persists across apps. Steps Tried: Restarted TV, router, and modem. Switched to 2.4GHz band—same issue, slower speed. Assigned static IP to TV in router settings. Reset TV network settings and reconnected. Checked router logs; no disconnect errors logged. Searched Neowin; found a 2024 thread on Wi-Fi issues but no TV-specific fixes. Expected: Stable Wi-Fi connection for uninterrupted streaming. Actual: Wi-Fi drops every 20–30 minutes, requiring manual reconnect. Has anyone faced Wi-Fi dropouts on Samsung QLED TVs or Tizen OS? Could it be a firmware bug or router setting? Any debug tips or workarounds? Thanks for any ideas!
    • I can see why you would need an AI browser
    • if you get your MSA locked and can't recover it, and if you are on win 11 24H2 that can do automatic encryption (on Home editions too), then the BitLocker key goes with that account.
