    Is that out of the realms of possibility?

    Or could that be next?

    Wouldn't sell as his next fight. Khan got stopped just two fights ago. He's nowhere near ready to fight Floyd, although his basic stylistic mold can serve him well against Floyd. I think there's a reason Roach believes so.

    Khan is a way better fight then the two bums he's trying to fight.

    Khan has no experience at 147. Alexander beat Maidana and Bailey. And didn't get KO'd within the year and lost twice within the past 16 months. Alexander is a much better fight than Khan. Guerrero is better than both... I would still like to see Mayweather/Khan down the line if Khan establishes at WW and Floyd fights long/active enough.

    Regardless of how much you hate khan, be honest, you all are much more intrigued at khan-mayweather then the other two opponents

    Khan has advantages over Mayweather style wise, and when you factor in Mayweather isn't a power puncher, it does have interesting possibilities.

    I'm at the point where I just want any fight to be made, so I can look at it from there.

    Still see this as a surprisingly easy win for Mayweather than some do. Given the fact Guerrero has whiskers he knows he can rely on, and given he can work up close. Guerrero IMO, gives Mayweather a more competitive bout.

    Much easier to beat Berto up from inside, than it would be to take on Mayweather mate.

    Hatton would be a classic example, once he got inside on Mayweather (using a speed of foot that RG doesn't have.) he found it hell contending with Mayweather's use of elbows and subtle lateral movement. Also, Mayweather has started to throw uppercuts more in his last two fights, it's bad news for RG if that continues.

    Have you ever seen Khan outboxed? (Since Kinderlan anyways)

    With the length, output and variety of combinations it'd be intresting to see how a 36 year old Mayweather deals with a very quick Amir Khan.

    Against Khan Mayweather would be the one having to do the work - either trying to counterpunch or walk Khan down.

    Looking at his opponents over the last 5 years then it's very clear that Khan would be a very interesting matchup

    RJJ knows.
