    No he won't, that ****er throws flurries with no technique at all, going against the best counter puncher in the sport, that's easy as cake for Floyd...

    Mayweather almost knocked out an iron chinned fighter in Guerrero in the 8th tonight before injuring his hand, can you imagine what he'd do to a mere con's glass jaw? :lol:

    All the heart in the world doesn't make up for having quite possibly the shittiest chin in boxing. Mayweather landed 60% of his power shots tonight, he'll have no issue landing that straight right onto Amir's brittle mandible :rofl

    Khan defence is not as bad as Guerrero's cuz he got a good chin he don't protect it and was open all night.

    Its seems to me Khan is having trouble making 140 now, so 147 would suit him better, if so his chin is not that bad.

    Mayweather's right leads are so crisp and land so accurately that it makes up for the fact he might not be the most powerful puncher - my point being one of those right leads that landed on Guerrero would wobble Khan big time...

    If Pacquiao can still perform with the same fearlessness and volume he did against MArquez before the big KO he is still THE best opponent for Mayweather at 147 - by a long long way...

    Styles make fights and Pacquiao's style can cause problems for Mayweather, though I think Mayweather gets the decision

    But I hate threads saying Khan is a better opponent, ALexander is a better opponent, it's absolute rubbish

    People need to accept the fact that Khan is not a p4p caliber fighter.

    :lol::rofl It 10x worse than Guerreros, did you notice that Khan keeps getting hit by the same ****ing punch and he cant make needed changes to not get hit with left hook he is just dumb in the ring no other word no ****ing RING IQ, look at his last fight after being knocked out by Garcia and hit 100 times by a left hook in last fight he still could not make needed adjustments to not get hit, and sometimes it goes to keep his right up and he doesnt even do that!!!

    I agree that Khan is one of the few people with attributes that might trouble Mayweather. But PBF would knock him out.

    Really? You remember last week when Khan was wobbled everytime a career lightweight clipped him? That extra 7lb is going to make all the difference :patsch


    This. Khan will never learn, I feel genuinely sorry for his fans as he will keep getting caught and stopped by the same punches. It's been happening since the Limond fight (his first actual loss) yet he can't correct it. He must be a trainer's nightmare, like trying to housetrain a ******ed animal.

    IF Khan had Mosley's or Hagler's chin then he would have a great chance against Floyd.....But he doesnt so he would get KOed!!!

    Yet the same guy faced 9 of his 10 140lbs fights without getting KO, by Maidana, Zab, Pederson(155lbs on fight night) show you he is weight drained now and 147 could bring new life into his career.
