    Why people think Khan could beat Floyd? Other than speed, what does he offer? He can't outbox Floyd.

    If Eric Crumble then beat Khan after Khan beat Manny and Floyd, where would you rate crumble? Its all hypothetical and unlikely, especially since Khan isnt a front runner to even land either fight.

    All time great obviously, no doubt about it. I think he beats both also.

    Are you Khan's brother? Or cousin? You ride Khan HARD.

    Because Khan's fans are a tad bit delusional.

    Somebody has got to fight the idiots dont they posting dribble on the forums. Was there anything you disagree with what I said? If khan beat Floyd and Pac which I think is a strong possibility considering how good he is looking, wouldn't he be an ATG?

    It's not just the speed. It's what comes with the speed. 4-8 punch combo's that landed in seconds, literally.

    It's also work rate, speed of hand AND foot, a great trainer in the corner, a sparring partner in Andre Ward who even Floyd raves about AND Amir's own experience from sparring world class opposition in Manny every day. Then there's the confidence which he can take from his own battle with Maidana...

    There's a lot of things, son.

    In that case 95% of boxer have slower feet then Floyd, so your point?

    KO in 6 lying there like a dead fish.
    That never happened to Khan.
    Khan is much faster and has boxing skills.
    Pac is now an old overrated swarmer.
    Khan wins this one.
    Maybe a shutout.

    Yes He would have .. Floyd had already dominated Hatton, plus hatton was 60% percent the fighter he used to be and he had lots of issue in his camp at the time and a new trainer.

    Cotto was coming off a bad beating at the hands of margarito again Pac is fighting a fighter that is not mentally all there.

    Both these fighters stood right in front of pac and both ran into puncher trying bulldoze him over.

    Floyd is nothing like ether one of these fighters, even when he has the Physical and speed advantage he prefers to use his skill and mental game to win the fight. Only drawing from his speed and physical attributes only when needed. This is what makes Floyd hard to figure out.

    Khan and Ward DO NOT spar together.
