    my points exactly khan has never seen anything like pac none of his past opponents even come close to him

    khan COULD beat mayweather

    khan WOULD get knocked out by pac its not only pac I would say many many big punchers from the ww div would have him out

    all it takes is one shot from rios that's what I am saying khan could beat mayweather but for me if he gets in with a puncher its a big risk

    theres a theory I've seen in places that Floyd beats pac, who beats khan who beats Floyd etc etc.

    based on what i saw vs DA I think khan will find it easier vs Floyd, however pacs ko power has diminished so its a close one, Khans a live dog against both

    What will Khan do when Floyd takes away his speed with timing?

    Big disparity in class, Floyd even at this stage with an easy UD. I swear that half the posters here are on Khan's PR payroll, such is the nonsense they are spouting.

    LOL at Floyd would struggle to win a round. Floyd is the master at adapting.

    I agree to a certain extent that Pac is no doubt a true ATG and that he has the power to hurt Khan. But take Khans new defensive nous and his impressive improvement under Virgil, picking the right shots, being efficient (he has had 43% PCT vs Alexander and like 50% PCT vs collazo), ability to control range along with his physical advantages such as a massive advantage in height and arm length over pacquiaos 5'6 inch height and 67 inches reach. Khan could be a serious nightmare for Pac equally because he could keep range make pac lunge in and pick him off all night. But on the contrary Pac could easily hurt Khan, but then again Khan hasn't been hurt at 147 a weight he said he is highly comfortable at and Pacs not had a knockout in years.

    even the power pac has now is far far too much if you don't have power then khan will box you're head of

    like I said before the shots Bradley got hit with in the pac fight would have khans head of

    great that's good I like khan as well but nothing will prepare him for fighting pac alexander would not prepare him
    pac is a completely different animal its not only his power (he is not like a rios with just power) he has experience speed and footwork like I said amir would have a much much better chance with Floyd then pac and he himself knows this

    believe me if khan was put infornt of pac he would get his knockout :yep guys like toni,clottey,jmm,rios,bradley,chris all have chins much much better then khan

    or gets off first? Alexander was trying to counterpunch Khan but Khan was too quick. Khan would get his punches off and then move out of range or tie Alexander up. Khan's defense still has holes in it so someone taking the fight to Khan would have more success.

    Since when was Rios a power puncher:patsch He has no power at 147. THe only reason he was winning at 135 was because he was so much bigger than the smaller guys, he was like a bully in a playground. When he met somebody his own size he lost. But if you actually look at the fight, he would not even get close to khan imo, would be a comfortable UD for Khan.

    Floyd can still fight on the inside when he needs to.

    I agree that Khan has much better chance vs Floyd but he also beats pacquiao in my opinion. He's sparred with manny numerous times and he believes he has his number.

    there is a reason why khan has said many times pac is a much tougher fight its because he knows anyone with power will be a big problem for him
