    I can actually see Pacquiaos combinations, I find it difficult to see Khans as they are blistering fast. I think he's much faster. They both have good power, but I'd give pac the edge. Khan is a better boxer though, and I feel he is a bigger threat to floyd than pac is.

    I agree with everything you said EXCEPT the bit where you said Floyd is faster. No way. Khan is MUCH faster, WITHOUT QUESTION.

    and they have ZERO power behind them. Khan fights like a Robot the same exact punch combinations and movements over and over and over. Khan is a pitty pat puncher most his punches last night were landing on the gloves or barely even touching Alexanders face. :lol::lol:

    If he is so feather fisted then why was Alexander stunned a few times? Why did he not come forward not respecting his power? Khan had 50% connect percentage on power shots, 36% on jabs, 43% overall. Numbers don't lie, people do! :patsch

    Khan landed a few single punches not combinations. His combinations always have been pitty pat punches with either land on the gloves or barely graze the opponent. Yes he did have a few times where he threw one punch but not a combination that landed. Big deal. Plus he had a feather fisted guy in front of him not having to worry about what was coming back. Lets see him do that against Thurman. Or even Garcia (who is not a savage puncher by any means)

    Can't be called a cherry pick anymore imo. Khan now deserves the fight.

    That was impressive last night.

    Devon has an Iron chin anyway, he wasn't going to KO him, he took Mathysse and Maidanas bombs all night :patsch

    Mayweather will certainly consider that if he would like to come to Britain a Khan fight would be a stadium fight and generate a 50,000+crowd.If the money is there for him I for one would pay to see him.I know he likes Vegas and wether Khan could generate the kind of crowds Ricky Hatton took to Vegas is doubtful.Its a pity there is a split with us British fans over Khan,I myself judge him only in the ring and on that alone he is one of Britains most exciting and entertaining boxers we have produced but I guess its as Floyd says its all about the money
