    Another massive plus point for khan is this will be the 1st time in years that he is the underdog. He will not have the burden of feeling he has to win in style(1 of his most damaging weaknesses). He can go out there and relax and not worry about putting on a show.

    Nothing different to any of Floyd's opponents, they're always the underdog, and always lose.

    Khan will be ahead on points when he's KO'd in the 6th round.

    Khan's wingspan is 71" compared to Mayweathers 72" so what is al this reach advantage to Khan nonsense?

    He will have height advantage, and that is ALL. He will have less strength, and less power, and far less skill, I wouldn't even think he has much advantage with speed either. He throws combinations, and his chin comes up. Suicide against someone with the skill, and accuracy of Mayweather.

    from a mentality point of view this will be a big plus for khan. His willingness to entertain the crowd is what cost him the garcia fight. Throwing 7/8 shots at once trying to please and leaving himself wide open to counters. Yes floyd counters better than garcia but with nowhere near the same amount of power or conviction.

    Which part don't you agree with?

    This fight is such a foregone conclusion there is no point in breaking it down, Khan is leagues below Floyd and whatever he does Floyd will do better, Khan WILL lose and lose badly, the end.

    If Amir Khan is bad news for Floyd :lol:, you wouldn't want to find out what Pacquiao is to Floyd.

    You can have all the reach in the world but if you don't know how to use it, it's useless. Remember Concreto's height and reach compared to the opponents(half his size) he went after?

    The only way Khan is bad news for Floyd is Floyd taking the fight in the first place against yet another inferior opponent.

    Khan may have the advantage of hand speed but if so, only a by a fraction. Also, Mayweather footwork faster than Khans foot work.

    yeah, floyd appologises for being head and shoulders above the rest.
