    Mayweather would eventually adjust to Khan, in about 4, maybe 5 minutes.

    He secretely apllies those testosterone tissues so that Floyd's absorbs that,Amir loses the fight of course but then possibly Floyd gets caught and disqualified... No other way I can see it, do you?

    He gets Floyd to hit him with a hook, the hook is so powerful it spins Khan's head until its facing away from Floyd and then Floyd hits him with a straight which nails Khan in the back of the head. Floyd is DQ'd for hitting his opponent in the back of the head, end of fight.

    Sometimes people put too much bank in hand speed or power as "the key" to winning.

    Khan's handspeed and nervous-like foot movement isn't an "all you need" checklist to beat someone like Mayweather. Those are simply good attributes he has, but many don't realize that more goes into a fight than a fighter's attributes.

    Mayweather is an adjuster. He can take a good shot. He is more experienced. He focuses on fluidity rather than speed. He doesn't try to show off better than his opponent, he's simply relaxed and can control his pace. He has a world of confidence in his abilities. He trains hard. Has a great training relationship. He's patient and takes advantage of flaws. He's economical. He treats every fight as his biggest challenge. In fights where he can't do exactly what he's used to, he finds other ways to win. He's versatile on the outside AND inside (unlike Khan). He actually knows how to cut off the ring. He doesn't panic under pressure. He keeps his focus when a little tired.

    It takes more than saying "all you have to do is jab" or "all you have to do is stick and move" or "all you have to do is pressure him non stop". Those are great things to do, but these guys aren't robots. Not everyone can stick to a gameplay for 12 rounds. Or if they find that consistent jab for instance isn't working because it's being countered, what else do they have? If Khan finds he's faster, but Floyd's more accurate and better on the inside, then what else does Khan have? If Khan finds a hard time landing cleanly vs Floyd, what else does he have? If Khan gets rocked or tired from being so hyperactive and is less mobile, what else does he have?

    Look at more intangibles rather than just attribute flash.

    Hard to argue with that statement...
