Amir Khan at least has the tools to trouble Mayweather

    Flat Footed fighters should be nowhere near Floyd.

    Danny Garcia
    Devon Alexander

    Good fighters but offer nothing to Floyd.

    Khan would be lucky to see 4-5 RD's.
    (W/Amir's chin Floyd will look like Tyson.)

    Khans speed would not trouble Floyd in the slightest. He may be fast but he jumps into his punches, look at some of the shots he was getting caught with against Diaz.

    Floyd would take his little backward steps and time his counters all night long until Khan did his chicken dance.

    Khan has nothing that will challenge or even surprise Floyd. He'll get KTFO. This fight shouldn't even be considered considering how much he struggled against a faded Diaz. He should fight Alexander first. If he wins then maybe he's a viable option. But currently it's a **** fight.

    Not true

    If you have the tool to trouble Mayweather then you have a chance to fight him.

    Amir Khan is like a 12 year old kid that stole his dad's keys and hopped in the Lambo,
    he can't handle the speed, and by that I mean his own speed. His mind processes slower
    than his hand and foot speed, that's why NO fighter has trouble landing on him. It's foolishness to even put him near Floyd.

    all i'm saying is if peterson, maidana, julio diaz & danny garcia can all work out khan, how do people see khan troubling the most adaptable fighter around? Floyd can fight any style because he's such a good all rounder fighter. Seriously never call a floyd KO but i'd be suprised if this goes past 8

    Khan has some serious things going for him but they're negated by the fact that he's a walking cantaloupe. Cantaloupes can't hang with Mayweather. Like you though, I'm intrigued by Mayweather/Lara, which will not happen without Lara becoming Mexican or Chicano. He can't become one of those and it's unlikely he becomes the other.

    It would be foolish for Floyd to fight Khan anyway.

    Might well be Mayweathers easiest ever pay day, but makes for **** viewing.

    Khan's speed isn't on Mayweather's level.
