Floyd Mayweather vs. Amir Khan speculation & discussion

I wonder if some people actually realize that the only boxers that Mayweather is fighting is someone huge following(except Pacquiao).

My point is Mayweather doesn't have to hype up Khan. Khan and his fan base will do that for him. Mayweather just talk **** just like the usual.

 

Pacquiao was also coming off a loss, not just any loss but a devastating KO loss! There was no shame fighting a guy like Rios who has an all action style in your first fight back after a KO loss and taking a year break!

Khan is coming off a win against Julio diaz :rofl who even dropped Khan and came close to stopping Khan!!! Diaz had won only 6 of his last 11 fights before he fought Khan and had already been KTFO by Kendall Holt

:hi:

 

but can Mayweather really afford to talk **** about Khan? there is so much May can say about Khan! he can say Khan has a glass jaw and has been KTFO more then once! he can say Khan has never fought at 147! he can mention the fact he got dropped by Julio Diaz in his last fight! There is so much Mayweather could say about Khan, but how will that benefit Mayweather and make pepole think Khan has a chance?

Mayweather wont talk **** about Khan, he has to hype Khan up otherwise this fight has no chance of being taken seriously!

 

guerrero and canelo have never been knocked out.

khan has been knocked out twice.

i'd say both have better skills.

he wasn't outclassing swift. danny was zeroing in on him as the hbo commentators were blowing khan.

 

yes floyd has zero power its just his punches have snappness which put the fighters of

 

This once again supports the *****s are hypocrites thesis indeed.

 

Cotto looked like crap at 146 that fight before :hi:

 

I disagree with so much here that it is hard to know where to begin. In what parallel universe was he "outclassing" Garcia before the stoppage? Sure, he had a round or two advantage at the time but he was hardly "outclassing" Danny.

If I hear one more person on here cite Khan's handspeed as a reason why he'll trouble Floyd, I think I'm going to put my head through a brick wall.

So let's all say it together.... handspeed does not:
1) Compensate for poor defensive acumen
2) A shaky beard
3) ZERO inside game
4) Questionable ring IQ

Moreover, Khan is not especially difficult to hit once a fighter adjusts to his handspeed and lanky build. See Lamont Peterson. See Danny Garcia. See Marcos Maidana in the later rounds.

If a relatively crude tactician like Peterson could find the mark against Khan, what the do you think a ****ing maestro like Floyd would do???

 

Money will say here's a British ******* that I will knock out. That's all he needs to say to get > 1.5 million PPV.

 

He will come out and say bull**** like "Khan called me out on national TV and it's only right that I return the favor. I have a lot of fans in the UK and I want to give them what they want." or some doodoo along those lines that the *****s will smear and rub their faces into like its chocolate pudding.

 

what a shambles this makes the rios fighter better ahahah the number 1 p4p is fighting khan loooooooool

 

I look forward to watching Floyd fight a guy that just had a hard close fight with Julio Diaz lmao what a joke fight

 

Floyd quote: "I still see Khan as an unbeaten fighter, Peterson was a drugs cheat and Garcia and Prescott got lucky"

Floyd sr quote: "Khan is very fast, just ask Paulie, has an iron chin, just ask Maidana and is a former unified world champion"

 

"He's the greatest pa kistani boxer ever."
