    Khan would be Floyd's worst opponent in 10 fights.

    Sharmba Mitchell in his welter debut was a worse fight than Khan would be, I will say that.

    Hell no.

    People who say this have got to be either trolls or British fanboys.

    Zab Judah was faster than Khan but unlike Khan he also could beat PBF to the punch and was a natural counter-puncher a harder style for PBF to deal with than Khan. I can guarantee you that all this speed you think Khan has will disappear after 4 rounds. Khan's a front runner not only that he will not be the faster fighter in the ring.:deal PBF will still beat him to the punch due to his superior reflexes and timing. So Khan's supposed hand speed advantage is simply overstated and not true.

    PBF will have his way with Khan any way he likes it, outside, mid-range or inside it won't matter. This fight is easy to predict and has one-sided clinic written all over it for those who can analyze strengths and weaknesses of boxers.:deal

    How so? It took Garcia only 4 rounds to KO him :lol:
    You think it would take Floyd longervto start tagging him and breaking him down. YDKSAB!!!!

    Even Hunter said that at this point Floyd is quicker and probably as fast

    I don't even know.... Sharmba is probably a good shout.

    The difference being he was considered 'The King' back then.

    This fight would be a joke.




    BUT - people always start talking about guys Mayweather will be fighting, and dissing on him and the fight, when in reality he never winds up fighting them. Id wait to see if this fight actually happens.

    Whether you think Mayweather takes the easy roads or not, the fact is an opponent like Khan would be out of character for Floyd.

    Some great posts but some of you morons can't f'in read. I already stated in the opening post, it is not about skill, it's about who has earned the fight. Guerrero, maybe you think he is less skilled than Khan, same with Ortiz - IT DOESN'T F'IN MATTER. This thread about is about earning the bout. Ortiz and Guerrero both proved themselves top contenders at the division with their respective wins. KHAN however has not beaten a top 10 fighter in 2 years. Stop talking about Maidana, Kotelnik being better wins, it doesn't matter ****, those fights were 3-4 years ago. We are talking about now
