    They know wuss up in recent interviews you can see by their expressions Khan's style his going cause Floyd problems Sr even went on record saying Khan is a harder fight than Manny for Floyd..


    I don't think they will take the Khan fight, Probs fight another slow flat footed Latino who is made for Floyd, I know Showtime want Floyd vs Khan because it would be an exciting fight, but Floyd won't risk his 0 so close to retirement.

    Floyd would find a way to beat Khan.

    Khan was never a quality fighter, but I feel like he was much better 4 years ago than he is today. The guy peaked at 23-24.

    Bull **** under Virgil Khan is more effective and measured..

    With Roach Khan was too reckless..

    Roach just being Roach taking about this new Khan, it's all about winning at all costs not looking good and getting KO..

    Freddie would probably have a better gameplan for Khan , he has experienced Floyd already with Oscar and he had some success in that fight .

    That's your opinion, Khan was too open with Roach sure he looked better but a KO waiting to happen.

    With Virgil he has wised up and not looking to jump in too much and taking his time.. It's a 12 round fight not a 3 round fight..

    Voted Virgil, misread question. Virgil Khan has a better chance of beating Pac, Roach Khan has a better chance of beating Floyd.

    Neither Khan has a very good chance of beating either. :lol:

    I think Sugar Hill would be a good fit for Khan.

    To be honest. Khan should avenge two of his three defeats:

    Danny Garcia - an obvious defeat that he must avenge.

    Lamont peterson - It's fine if he doesn't avenge this. (Was a clear robbery) Take away the 2 points hometown deduction and khan wins.

    Bredit presscot - An obvious defeat which needs to be avenge. Understandable not fighting presscot now cuz not much reward from it.

    Based on height and speed it could prove more difficult because Khan at least boxes unlike Maidana who is a plodder !
