    No way.... I'd rather he at least fight 2 or 3 times at 147, even if a Floyd fight does happen down the line. Jumping straight up a division then fighting the goddamn ringmaster...not a good choice, in my opinion.

    But Amir did speak about the Alexander fight in the last few days. Something along the lines of that fight "being 11 or 12 weeks away", when talking about his current training camp. I call bull on this new article.

    Like Ortiz, and thr e Ghost earned a shot?

    Of all people, Khan has the best chance of beating floyd.

    He about 3 inches taller, unlike Canelo.
    He can match hand speed.

    Lastly even though he has a bad chin, Floyd has soo much power. He can't hurt Khan with his feather fist.

    Khan can walk straight to Floyd and not worry about being hurt.:lol:

    Boxing is a business. Khan places asses on seats. British boxing fans alone would generate $$$$$....

    I saw this about Khan waiting on Mayeweather on fight hype. I don't know how the hell they would even consider facing Khan since Khan hasn't really did nothing especially at Welter Weight. He should fight Devon Alexander for the IBF belt and then we can go from there but until that happens this fight should not even be consider.

    Khan better fight because like I said in another thread, if bradley beats Marquez then hes gonna be the front runner even with Top Rank.

    Mayweather fights guys almost all the time off there biggest win or a big win. Guerrero, Ortiz, Mosley, Canelo. Khan's last win was a cupcake and he got dropped, how the hell does he think he can sit down and get the fight??? He has to fight Alexander or he wont get the fight

    There is not a single true statment here a part from Khan being taller but he is only an inch taller. Khan looked like **** in his last fight, Floyd has more than enough power to KO him. At end of the day Im not sure if you are not trolling.

    Floyd has way more supporters in the UK than Khan does

    Floyd ain't gonna fight Khan anyway, not unless he can get a significant win under his belt quick time

    Khan is an exciting fighter who is also exceptionally skilled.

    If the fight happens I think alot of people would watch to see:

    A) Khan get Koed

    B) Khan get dominated

    C) To see if maybe, just maybe Khan puts it all together on the biggest night of his career
