    although I think it's a **** fight it's probably the only fight Floyd could make were I'd want him to win.

    I usually favour the underdog but khan pisses me off.

    You're massively underrating Khan. Sure, Floyd stands him on his head, but he does that to almost anyone in the 140-147 division (including everyone's current favourite Matthysse).

    Sorry Pal - yes we do... and no we don't think Khan will avenge Hatton, Hatton was legitimate - Khan is certainly not that - and neither of the Brit lads are as good as Floyd,

    Hope this helps you.

    Of course he's "legitimate", what the hell does that even mean anyway? :huh

    It was just less than two years ago that he dismantled Zab Judah in 5, the same Judah that out boxed Matthysse and gave Garcia all he could handle. Granted based on his most recent performance, Khan seems to have slipped somewhat, and the fight with Floyd will most likely be a one sided beat down... but he's really being under-appreciated now.

    This is a good fight for Mayweather. Khan is a live dog who has had two good performances against Diaz and Molina. Khan's handspeed and boxing ability could trouble Mayweather. I see this as a 50/50 fight.

    Timing negates speed, and floyd is the master. I think floyd wins every round very easy.If i was a top ranked fighter who deserved a shot i would be ****ing pissed khan is even in the mentioning ..

    Only reason Mayweather would be interested in Khan is for his dream fight in the UK. Mayweather has a big fan base in the UK though he shouldn't need to face Khan just to fight in the UK.

    Goodness you could've saved us the rest of the paragraph and told us you haven't seen any of Floyd's fights.

    The Oscar fight was the one which made people start calling Floyd boring :lol:
     
  15. Lol even a featherfisted ducker like Floyd would knock Khan out.
