    has Floyd actually said that the result of this poll will determine who he fights yet?
    because all I've heard from him is "let the fans 'vote'"?

    Maidana had problems early.... then came on later. The ref had to constantly jump in every time Khan was hurt and be all like " no no you cant KO our A side!!". Phah.

    Maidana has improved a lot since the Khan fight. If they fought again I dont see many people giving Khan much of a chance.

    Its moot though, neither will do much to FMJ. I still think Maidana has a better chance of making it a fight than Khan though, just because of his stronger mental state , awkwardness and general intangibles. Khan is more athletic, but it will be a very straightforward and very one sided fight.

    Current Maidana would stop Khan within 5. Of course he wants none of that fight..

    Forget what maidana would do to khan. How many experts have picked maidana to trouble mayweather?

    I don't know what you are referring to. Most non-casuals want the Maidana over Khan fight for Floyd. He has shown the capability of finding the chin of fast and/or slick guys time after time. He also has massive power. Sure, he has his limitations in certain areas of his game, but like was pointed out before he is very good at managing what he has. This is not an easy fight, as if such a thing even exists at this level.

    Floyd will be on average, about a 3:1 or more favorite against anybody at 154 and below. That includes Manny Pacquiao, who would also be a big underdog.

    I fail to see the point of the original post. There is not a boxer alive in his weight class that Mayweather would be the underdog against. Not a single one.
