    Mayweather isn't knocking Khan out.

    Funny how Khan was a cherry pick but as soon as Floyd picks Maidana over him, now he's a duck. Which is it?

    You got a point there. Its a bit of a double standard by the dumbass fans. I personally was excited and thoroughly surprised when Khan was initially announced and I thought it was a duck when he chose Maidana despite Khan winning the poll.

    The difference is, Maidana BEGGED for a rematch with Khan. Amir has never said anything about Prescott, Peterson or Garcia again.

    Maybe a little too much info there, Bro, unless you want to tell us how he tastes too.

    The problem is, that's all it really is to them. Most people Floyd fights are there for the money only, not the glory.

    And Maidana is a Devon Alexander, Khan, and Andriy Kotelnik leftover. Yet, he had no problem fighting the C+ plodder

    but he had a good run and got a great win over broner, no one can deny he has made improvements since the losses. khan still has not convinced me..(and i voted for khan in the poll)

    Defeating Berto & Broner gets you a fight with Floyd Mayweather jr.

    Just ask Guerrero, Ortiz & Maidana.

    Also they all have something in common, they are all "has beens" &. "Has losses" and all flat footed.

    But he tells khan and pacquiao that they either have unfinished business with their opponents.

    Pacquiao and Khan has something in common, they both have speed and can punch. ( also both is a better boxer than Maidana, Ortiz and Guerrero)

    How were Guerrero, Ortiz, OR Maidana a "has been" going into the Floyd fights? They were all coming off the probable best or second best win of their career.

    And how do Guerrero, Ortiz, OR Maidana fitting in the category of "has losses" hurt them in terms of their qualification? Doesn't that just mean that they've fought good opposition, according to most? Most seem to think an undefeated boxer is an unproven one, no matter who they fight (which is very laughable and the easiest opinion to wreck).

    You pointing out Floyds hypocrisy that the above had a loss (although Guerrero had beaten every fighter he ever faced) as well as Pacquiao and Khan yet he doesn't make that excuse for them just shows your inability to recognize the reality of business and promotion of boxing. Of course someone should hype their opponent to make themselves seem better. Most fighters do that if they aren't trashing them left and right. See: Wladimir Klitschko's "mini-Tyson" quote regarding Jean Marc Mormeck.

    Khan now isn't as strong as Maidana is now nor could you cite his power at WW being greater than Ortiz had shown in 2011. I'll say that Khan probably has more power than Guerrero, but even that is a guess and closer to a push than me favoring either in the power department.
