    I can empathize with people, but people who complain need to offer an alternative or a solution

    Two people who deserve it the most: Tim and Garcia. Garcia either by his own will or Haymon doesn't want to move to 147 yet. He has firmly said this multiple times, he earned the 140lb belts the hard way and wants to keep them and get fights from them. Bradley is not a PPV number maker, and do you think Arum would negotiate it for Bradley but not Pac? Let alone the HBO Sho neetwork issues.

    People also need to be consistent. Who did Alvarez beat? I have Trout winning, and he DID land more powerpunches and jabbed him to death. Mosley who just lost his last fight to back cramps? How about Guerrero? Those two guys are fine but someone who TKO'd Judah, Malignaggi, Maidana, Kotelnik doesn't get it?

    Just saying

    To the passionate of the sport this kind of sucks, is at most intriguing. To the numberless of drones...this is an exciting fight.

    Lots of people crying and stating an already known problem. Offer a solution or an alternative. Relative to Floyd's other options this is a good fight. That or have a humping heartless Alexander fight Mayweather.

    Sergio, Cotto, Lara, even Manny in 2014 is a better fight.

    He can not honestly think he can sell a fight with somebody who should not even be sparring with him, could he?

    It's not so much that Khan won't present Mayweather with problems and even have a chance of beating him but that he just doesn't deserve the fight. Had he faced and beaten Devon Alexander then at least he would have had a belt and name at Welterweight to make the fight more attractive but coming off rather poor performances against Molina and Diaz hardly merits a fight with the P4P number 1.

    Within the Goldenboy stable they have Danny Garcia who is far more deserving of the fight after the Matthysse win.

    Devon Alexander has picked up a few decent wins lately and could have got the shot.

    Ruslan Provodnikov only has a 1 fight contract with Toprank so i'm sure something could have been negotiated to get him out of it and be free to fight Mayweather.

    If khan beat Alexander it would be a malleable fight at least

    Garcia sucks, he has no chance, forget him... Limited one dimensional, no chance against may

    Cotto won 5 rounds last time in a very close fight, a rematch wouldn't be a bad idea

    Pacquiao is the fight everyone wants but floyds health comes first

    Martinez, Bradley, Pac, Lara/Trout winner, Alexander, Maidana/Broner winner, Garcia (if he wanted it), and Thurman should he beat Karrass. All of which would be infinitely better than Khan at this point.
