    What a complete and utter waste of time and money. I have totally lost all respect now for mayweather now that khan looks 99% his next opponent. Floyd has recently stated that Garcia has not done enough to earn a right to fight him, the same fighter who brutally knocked out khan!! Now in the last couple of days he has also said that pacman does not deserve the right to fight him, so if being a seven weight champ and knocking khan around a sparring ring for fun is not worthy how the f**k has khan become a worthy opponent. Floyd mayweather an all time great, no way his legacy is now it tatters taking this fight

    Don't agree that it ruins his legacy,but do agree its a crap fight.Id rather Mayweather fought Lara at light middle and Khan went for somebody in the ratings or a champion below Mayweather,which covers everybody.Ive got a feeling Mayweather would like to fight in Britain,and Khan is the only one who wants to fight him.Hed be far better avenging the Garcia loss.That would qualify him better for a Floyd fight,but it won't happen and he wouldn't win if it did.So hell fight Floyd,maybe here,lose,and retire.Mayweather wins and goes on to a bigger challenge,legacy intact,unless he does a Roy Jones.

    Garcia has also said recently he isnt looking at Floyd and wants to fight opponents 'in his era'?

    He will wind up Pac non stop so i take that with a pinch of salt, its anything to annoy him and Arum (the reason for no fight)

    Love how Mayweather has been able to string Khan along long enough that he will be completely under cooked by the time the fight comes round as he'd have been out of the ring for 13 months.

    It's just Floyd all over.

    I understand peoples frustrations, but don't underestimate Khans speed. If he can sort his defence and ring IQ he stands a good chance. Lets be frank, he was whooping Garcia's arse round by round until he made a dumb mistake.

    No, his footwork (and everything else other than fast hands) is levels below Floyds for a start so his hand speed/flashy 4 punch combos will be pretty much nullified after round 4 latest, on top of that Floyds ability will mean he is winning by this point anyway. A one sided joke

    Garcia was happy to be outboxed whilst waiting for the opportunity, he looked for it a few times prior to detonation

    Well everyone has their own opinion, but I'm sticking to my guns and not calling it a one sided beat down like everyone else. If Judah can send Mayweather to the canvas then Khan sure as hell can. :bbb

    Mayweather is a great fighter but this bout is a disgrace. He does lose some respect within the real hardcore boxing fans. Especially the fact he picked the fight. It is a ***** move.

    Its all about money for Mayweather, he knows interest from the Asian population who support Khan means mage bucks and huge PPV numbers.

    I wont be buying it

    Mayweathers 'Legacy' is laughable.

    Not a huge fan of Khan but maybe I'm the only one who thinks Khan's style could cause Mayweather a lot of problems in this fight.
