    Khan has no chin, no ring IQ, and no punching power. I still can't understand why he's in this game. Floyd absolutely has the ability to KO Khan. The contest won't go longer than 3-4 rounds and Khant's jaw will be shattered once more in front of the world. Garcia and Prescott knocked out Khan by power, but Floyd will do it through masterful precision. Mayweather isn't that hard of a puncher, but he is incredibly accurate. Khan will just be another victim. To be honest Khan doesn't even deserve a fight with Mayweather because there are so many other superior fighters in that division.

    Of course, they go after the weakest links like he has been cherrypicking his whole career. Who is the weakest fighter within nearby weight classes, can bring some draw to make it a marketable event and poses no risk? That's who Mayweather is fighting. :-(

    why fight khan

    he might leave with a record of 25-15

    it would look bad on mayweather.

    kell brook is a welterweight

    gbp think khan will bring the fans dollar like ricky did ,
    it aint happening :bart the matter at hand is gbp put lots of dollar in to khan from the beggining , if they dont make this may fight now it might never come at all and amir could very well end up being a costly over hyped and over paid mistake on there part

    Absolutely Floyd has the power to shatter that Glass Jaw. Floyd Sr is a ChinChecker he quit training Dawson because he had a Glass Jaw and he knows how important Chins are in Boxing.

    This fight won't go but 4 or 5 rounds.

    Khan has a chin like Wlad. Once he meets a puncher it's all over. Same with Wlad. Why do you think that Wlad avoids punchers and has been avoiding punchers? Wlad has no chin.

    Too bad. Khan ain't fighting Alexander ,that would have been the only fight that would have made him worthy of a shot against Mw had he won..

    If you can take Maidana's punches for 12 rounds then you dont have a glass chin,Khan is very vulnerable at times but his chin aint glass..
