    Khan is a fragile man. Pac is being a friend.

    You know what Pac reminds me of? Remember that guy Little Mac from Punchout? This tiny little guy knocking out all these huge colorful monstrosities. Thats Pac. Mother ****er must be using those stars!

    Punching Power = Pac
    Angles = Pac
    Speed = Khan ( slight edge due to youth )
    Footwork = Pac ( wide wide margin )
    Experience = Pac
    Heart = Equal



    Honestly, I don't see Khan winning at the moment.

    To add to that:

    Better combinations: Pac
    Better single shots: Pac's straight-left is better than anything Khan has.
    Better chin: Pac
    Defensive ability: Not sure about this one, actually. Might be close. Neither of them are known for their defensive skills.

    Khan is a good fighter, but I honestly don't ever see him winning against Pac or Floyd unless they have significantly declined when he meets them in the ring. Khan is a talented, good boxer -- those two are on the tier above that, though, in the 'special' category.

    I give Khan a 40% chance of beating Mayweather based on height, speed, and his improved ability to take a punch. I give Khan NO CHANCE of beating Manny. Manny throws to many punches, and hits hard. Mayweather can land a good punch on Khan, but he's not active enough to get many KOs.
    That's why I give Khan a chance vs Floyd (his style is pretty good to beat Floyd), but no chance to beat Manny. It's not cuz Manny is unbeatable...I think Mayweather vs Pac is like 50/50, but Khan is all wrong for Manny.

    heart is nowhere near equal, Pac has been rocked by the greatest fighters of this generation at the lower weights and sufferred nasty cuts and kept coming forward. Khan tends to fold up and hold and survive for rounds at a time, that's not heart.

    I give Khan's lack of penetrating offense as the real reason he will look stupid against Mayweather: those 1-2-1-2 shoe shines are fast but super predictable. You never know what Pac is going to throw, or even slow guys can be unpredictable, but Khan just isn't. He moves in and out with speed but isn't accurate because he doesn't change the trajectory of his punches in favor of raw speed that often doesn't land.
