    Everyone gonna be calling for Floyd to fight Amir, this fight will become the new Mayweather-Pacquiao which people are losing interest in fast. Most people (rightly) think Khan has a better chance of beating Floyd than Pac now anyway.

    Lamont will have no answer for Khans speed and power, I'll be surprised if he isn't stopped by the 9th round. Can't see him getting past the jab and Peterson leaves himself wide open for the straight right hand. Body shots are gonna kill him. This will make the McCloskey fight look like a difficult nights work.

    Khan isnt in Mayweather's league. Would be a pointless fight. He hasnt done a thing at 147 yet.

    This will be an easy night in comparison, the McCloskey fight wasn't exactly 'difficult', he won every round.

    Amir to step it up another level tonight, people who say Khan doesnt deserve a shot at Floyd - you telling me Ortiz did? for beating a hypejob?

    and saying he's not in Money Mayweathers league is a sign of nerves, its pretty much common knowledge now that Khan poses more of a threat to Mayweather than anyone else, and he keeps getting better.

    Not difficult per se, but far from easy.

    Not landing = Hard work.

    And I disagree, I think Peterson can cause Khan problems at times.

    Khan won't destroy Peterson.

    No one has done that.

    Nothing, disgraceful performance by McCloskey. Maidana is the only man at 140 to give Khan a test. Lamont has a chance if he can get inside and do damage. I still think Khan wins 8-4 or 9-3 on the scorecards.

    Exactly.

    Khan will take a warm up at 147 and fight Floyd late 2012.

    no one yet, but hes moving up to 147 next right?

    1 or 2 more fights then Floyd? sounds pretty fair to me.

    as for Ortiz, what the **** has he done in his whole career!? apart from beat hype job Berto.
