    Khan struggled against Julio Diaz, the Collazo fight was clever matchmaking he hit Ortiz with one shot and got the fight. Other than that he wasn't a major contender before in the welterweight division right now their is a few guys that will beat Khan and Mayweather is one of them. I hope Mayweather just takes the fight I think somehow he is showing Khan more respect than he deserves because he picked Maidana instead expecting it to be an easier fight when in reality I think Mayweather would find Khan easier. Khan will not pressure like Maidana he will throw fast jabs and have few moments but his defense will not be able to evade the accurate sharp punches in return.

    Khan will get KTFO if he fights Floyd. Floyd has decent power, and he'll be able to time and counter Khan all night.

    lol at Judah he got outboxed by Malignaggi as well. Mayweather is another level from Judah even when Mayweather fought Judah in his prime after the 4th round once he settled down Judah I don't think won a single round.

    So what? Boxing is an odd sport...Shawn Porter had trouble with him...Julio Diaz's only success was landing the left hook (which went into the fight looking for all night) defences aside Khan did look awfully bad in that fight...but maybe that's why people enjoy watching Khan fights because 1 punch and he will be hunched over with no legs before getting stopped.

    This isn't about Judah it's about the type of maneuvers Khan used against him & how he'd use them against Floyd...

    Judah in his prime got knocked out by Kostya Tszyu in round 2. Floyd could not even knock him over in 12 when he was past it. Floyd was the one who got knocked down.

    As much as I've come to dislike Floyd, he is indeed a great talent with top-notch skills and ring smarts.

    Khan is just too flawed and lacks the ring smarts to beat Floyd. I'd be surprised if it's close. At best, I think Khan is mildly competitive. Khan's skillset has always been overrated simply because he's fast. He may make some tweaks and mild improvements, he did look pretty good against Collazo, but obviously Collazo is levels below Mayweather.

    Floyd will get little credit from me if and when he cherry-picks Khan and picks him apart, other than him performing well at a high age and continuing to do really weak in a relatively poor era.

    No one in their right mind can bee Khan beating Floyd. Mayweather will KTFO Khan, and Floyd isn't even a power puncher, that is how little chance Khan has.

    The Zab that fought Kahn, is no where near the Zab that fought Floyd.

    Floyd trolling as usual.

    This Showtime deal is almost a joke.4fights and 3 have been flopped,and against mediocre opposition.

    Guerrero and Maidana are not PPV worthy opponents.even Khan is debatable,but atleast Khan is really good fighter and step up from these slow podders.yes Khan has losses,but always KO.and against Floyd Khan chin is safe,Floyd is technician,not KO artist.

    Khan also can market a fight,could and should be +1 mill PPV.and Khan has more name than Guerrero and Maidana combined.

    Floyd probably wants Garcia next,and that's easy money.Khan is better than Garcia.atleast stylewise against Floyd.

    As I've always said, in Floyd's book even Khan is too dangerous for him. I'd be shocked if Floyd got in the ring with him.

    Amir Khan didn't say anything here. We're commenting on Floyd mayweathers comments and his continual ducking of any fighter who even remotely resembles a credible challenge.

    I can. Hence why Bitchweather is trying to get out of a fight with Khan as we speak.
