Floyd Mayweather vs. Amir Khan speculation & discussion

the official weight limit for the fight was 143.
so that means he made weight comfortably he didn't look weight drained, being tight at a weight means that you barely make weight during the time of the weigh in which he didn't.
this is being weight drained.

Its hard to tell with pics, but I do remember Khan looked dry to me.. I even posted that view on the british forum after weigh in.

 

he doesn't look dry in any of the picks, you know what a dehydrated person looks like, there pale, there lips are dry and there orbital bones are sunken, and they barely make weight during the weigh in khan was none of these so stop making stuff up.

 

Well we will know for sure when Khan fights at 147, Khan been saying he should of moved up after beating Zab due to him having to lose 20lbs to get to 140...

 

I'd favor Amir due to his clearly superior ring IQ.

 

you're going off of assumptions now, when khan left roach, there was never any mention by roach or his conditioning coach that he had issues making weight in fact hunter wanted khan to stay at 140 and not move up to 147 (so if making weight was such a problem why keep him at 140?). khan only said this afterwards but if you're naive enough to believe every word that comes out of his mouth then go ahead. the weight making excuse is something he said to chase after floyd for a final pay day before he(khan) retires.
the real reason khan doesn't take shots all that well is because he's been in too many wars the maidana and peterson fights took something out of him and he hasn't been the same since. its not an issue of being tight at the weight, you're just extremely naive

 

lol Khan playing chest with floyd is like me playing chess with my 5 year old

 

As I said... If Khan was is talking **** about his weight I think Floyd will KO him inside 4 or 5 rounds..

 

The thing is no one outboxed Khan and fo sure floyd's gonna be the first one to do it or not

 

They surely can't sell the Floyd / Khan fight after Khan's last two lacklustre fights so hey need a named opponent beforehand. But someone who can't punch because Khan's chin can't get cracked.

Basically they need someone Khan can look good against so hype the Floyd fight which is still 8 months away.

Who will they pick do you think?

 

Going by other threads Apparently his gonna sit it out and wait for the Mayweather fight. Only easy fights that could generate a decent crowd at Barclays would be rematches vs Malignaggi or perhaps Dmitry Salita . He loses to everyone else at welterweight.

 

Not really bums, but Senchenko, Malinaggi, or Jessie Vargas would be great fights for Khan to shine in and give the illusion that he is back on top his game and prepared for Mayweather (if there is such a thing)

 

He nearly lost to a shot Diaz.

No way are Khan's handlers going to risk putting him in with anybody before Mayweather.

 

Khan's jab looks **** under Virgil.. It used to be the best jab at 140

I want the jab he used to use against Judah and Maidana back....

Virgil is trying to make an unsmart fighter smart... it can't be done.. lol

 

Jessie Vargas would have a great shot at beating him
