    I think Mayweather does want to fight him. Big, marketable name with low risk and Floyd could get a KO win

    Mark it down, They will make big $$$ together.

    Perfect candidate for Floyd. A fighter who has looked horrible over the years, coming off of one win, and moving up to a weight he isn't proven at. Sounds like what Floyd has been picking over the last several years for the most part.

    The Uk fans who dont follow boxing like most on this forum would let this fight go without accusing of cherry picking ect it will simply be can Khan avenge Hatton or some ****

    If they fight Floyd will be over here doing promotion for it always says the UK loves him he will make sure it sells, get a win then **** off till next may

    "When I got caught by Danny Garcia's left hook it was a wide shot and I should never have been caught with it. It's a mistake I won't make again...














































    until I fight Julio Diaz and he lands the left hook every time he throws it"

    How has he looked 'horrible'? Against Peterson, Khan was robbed a decision and against someone that was admittedly on PEDs when he fought Khan. Against Garcia he didn't look horrible per say he was stopped but he didn't look horrible during the course of the fight. Against Molina well...he swept every round with ease as he should have. His win against Diaz is being undermined. Yes he was down in the 4th but he wasn't hurt and yes he was hurt in the 11th but did win all the rounds with ease. Diaz does have good power and was just coming off a Draw and arguably should have been a win against an excellent prospect in Shawn Porter.

    I'm not saying Khan has earned a shot at Mayweather, but just that I don't see how Khan has looked horrible. He hasn't looked great but certainly not horrible.

    Khan is going to get KTFO against Lucas . But he did clearly win against Maidana , unless of course it appears you choose to only count those rounds in which Maidana does well.

    If Khan was lucky that Maidana landed that shot in the 10th round and not 1st then Maidana was lucky that Khan landed that terrific body shot that had him rolling around on the canvas with only 10 seconds left in the round.

    We;; I think he looked horrible since the Peterson fight .. though it was controversial, he doesn't know how to fight on the inside and has ver subpar defense. Julio landed right hand after right hand and Khan couldn't adjust. Not knocking him b/c he is very talented but he has ben made to look amateurish quite a lot as of late.

    Khan really isn't that marketable anymore. Floyd usually fights guys coming off of a big decisive win. Khan "beating" Diaz isn't big or decisive.

    Exactly. If Khan manages to get a decent win or two, I fully expect to see this happen.

    Winner of Khan and Alexander should get to fight Panochita.
