Floyd Mayweather vs. Amir Khan speculation & discussion

Lets assume Miadana is picked by Mayweather who should he fight as an alternative dude has plenty of options at 140-147

Thurman
Brook
Broner
Alexander
Porter
Collazo
Mattysse
L.Peterson

Confidence Builder Fights
Berto
Ortiz
Soto-Karess


Garcia is booked Provo , Bradley, Manny, Marquez Rios (suspended) Alvarado is all with Top Rank he has already beaten Judah & Paulie

I'm thinking Shawn Porter would be a good opponent for him with Porter he has a chance to win a belt porter is aciton packed Khan is action packed it could be plenty of excitement maybe even on the Mayweather undercard (I know its doubtful) Thoughts

 

Stupid question.

 

Porter for me. Perfect way for Khan to establish himself as a legit WW. Damn risky fight for him though...

 

I don't think Haymon would allow Broner to get his ass boxed off by Khan. My answer would be Thurman. Khan says his beard is good at 47 so why not prove it?

 

It's funny. I don't think any of the fights you listed as 'confidence builders' are sure picks for Khan. I think JSK and Berto stand a good chance of beating him. Ortiz with his head screwed on would give Amir a beating.

 

he should fight lucas

 

just fight porter.
or he needs a tuneup ? alexandria for a confidennce builder

 

The funny part is, I don't see many so-called '*****s' hating on Khan. What I see are primarily the Khan haters (mostly British) on here making post after post questioning Khan's resume and what has he done to 'deserve' the fight. (Side note - I still can't figure out why Khan gets the level of vitriolic hate he does from his countrymen. It's really odd.)

As a matter of fact, I'll go so far as to say most so-called '*****s' would say a Khan fight has much intrigue than a Maidana fight. Even though both are expected victories, you already KNOW exactly how Mayweather is going to deal with Maidana.

It ain't the '*****s' who are pissing on Khan as an opponent.

 

Unfortunately Ortiz with his head screwed on doesn't exist. That dude has issues.

 

Kell Brook's the one that will make him the most money. I don't see him wanting that fight though. I actually think a Broner fight would make a lot of sense. A win against him would give him enough buzz for a shot at Mayweather. Plus Broner's confidence right now could possibly be shaky. Malignaggi, without hesitation, said Khan wins that fight. Although he may be a bit biased....I do think his opinion has a lot of weight. Maybe even a Malignaggi fight could be a confidence boaster also.

 

i love the porter fight, winnable for a title too

 

A Brook fight is actually the best option money wise I agree. Best way to get his country behind him IF he can win.

 

Honestly I think Khan loses to everyone on that list and I'm no hater. It's a shame he is shot to bits.

 

Prescott, but we know he won't take it.

 

sounds positive. they hope to announce the fight in a couple of days
