    The boxing game is not a stagnant game, it's dynamic, and guess what.. Maidana has improved whereas Amir Khan has faded.

    Maidana would slaughter Amir today.

    Well he should be fighting pacman. But out of these 2 i disagree with you. Maidana is an easier fight for Floyd than Khan is and he should be testing himself against the best option. Styles make fights and Khan poses more problems than Maidana.

    He won by 1 round. Hardly a dominant display either.

    It was also 3 years ago. Their careers have gone in opposite tangents. Khans has gone downhill, and downhill hard.

    We should judge boxers on their recent perfomances, not what they looked like over 3 years ago.

    If you say so. It's completely baseless to say Khan is the harder fight though.

    Khan is garbage. He struggled with Diaz and Molina ffs.

    Pac-Rios was one of the lamest figts announced in a long time, Mayweather-Khan is not great but way better then that

    No it isn't.

    Atleast Rios had been fighting at a championship level within the last 2 years.

    Khans hasn't had a championship level fight since he was blown out in 4 by Garcia.

    Both **** fights, Khan-Floyd is way shitter though.

    Yep. tell me why not? Khan might not have the best chin but Rios is a punching bag. Rios would be lucky to win a round against Khan, would have to pray for a KO

    I'd bet money on Rios knocking Khan out.

    Because Khan has struggled with Molina and Diaz in his last fights? Is 2-2 in his last 4? Hasn't fought at a championship level in 2 years? Hasn't looked impressive since Judah almost 3 years ago?

    Is that enough reasons?

    Khan is a glass jawed punching bag himself. His game is one dimensional as hell.

    He's all speed and flurries.

    Rios KO's Khan in 2014.

    How many times have we seen him against slow flat footed fighters.. do we really need to see another one. It will be complete domination for 12 rounds. I can only assume the *****s want this so they can teabag him some more. Khan may also be an easy fight, but it'll be good to see how he handles the speed.

    Hey i didnt say its a good fight at all. Somebody said this would be one the lamest fights announced in awhile and i think Pac-Rios was a lammer fight announced
