    His reflexes and counter punching ability is the reason why his opponents don't walk him down .

    It has absolutely nothing to do with his power .

    What does Shane Mosley know? You mean other than being in the ring with both fighters to assess their punching power? :patsch

    Let Khan go into a Mayweather fight thinking he doesn't hit harder than Alexander. He'll get KTFO just like Hatton who thought the same. :lol:

    I want this fight more than Pac vs Floyd even though im a huge Pac fan.

    Khan would demolish floyd. Khan is the fastest puncher in boxing today, that speed would have floyd all dazed and confused. There is only one winner in this fight. Probably why Floyd is ducking him now.

    And imagine losing your '0' to Khan hahahaha he wouldnt be able to step out of his house without being laughed at.

    :yep Exactly. Then after getting beat by Khan he can go and fight with the rest of the chumps and sit at home wiping the tears while watching pac and khan fight in the biggest boxing match ever. I can imagine Pac sending floyd a picture of his cheque on instagram :lol:

    47-1, its coming.

    I'm just being honest. this is what i see expect for ppl saying im just talking nonsense.

    1 - the Jab. pac doesnt really throw any jabs at all and im not sure if he really ever has. Roach has actually said that he throws them only to hide the left when it comes in. So yes it has a purpose but Khan's jab is WAY BETTER. Khan throw it with a purpose, uses it to keep distance and it sets up his combos.

    2 - Combos. At this point Khans combos are better then Pac's. When Pac throw him, he's somewhat accurate but man there still very wild and hes TOTALLY open for massive counters (reasn why Marquez has had great sucess in 4 fights with him). when Khan throws them is way more accuract then Pacquiao. lighting speed and after he throws, most of the time he gets out of there then comes right back in with some more. Gotta take Khan in combos.

    3. Balance. when Pac throws combos hes wildy off balnce most of the time. when Khan throws them he keeps his balance. Thats from what I seen. pac has good footwork when he turns but when hes in attack mode hes more of balance then Khan is. a few years ago i would say pac has more balance but now i think Kha does.

    I have no idea about chins. u can say Pac has a slighty better one and thats fine. For Pac now its a little hard to say because since the KO hes fought 2 jww's and bradley who has no power. since Khan got KO Garcia he has really faced a puncher either so Pac's chin would get the nod here but how much is that a factor against Mayweather??? Not much

    Boxing stance. Alot like to say pac's southp[aw stance will give Mayweather alot of trouble but i havent really seen Mayweather in trouble against a southpaw in his career. and at this point fighting conventinsal would be better IMO. why you say?? because everybody knows Mayweather's straight right is his best punch and thats ALSO the best punch to throw against a southpaw. I can see both fighters getting hit all night against the straight right but pac more because its easier to hit him with it then a conventional fighter.

    All in all i do feel at this point Khan is a toguher fight. Now by no means am i saying Khan wins because i still dont think that. ALSO BY NO MEANS am I saying Mayweathet doesnt need to fight Pac, that is STUIP AND RIDICLOUS!! Mayweather and Pacquiao need to fight each other. I just think Khanis the tougher fight and casinos do too. Pacqiiao +250, Khan +200

    what you guys think?? and for ****s read my last paragraph, I SAID MAYWEATHER STILL NEEDS TO FIGHT PACQUIAO!! So dont come on here talking about i accpet Mayweather to duck Pac for Khan and be happy about it. not at all!!!! :bbb:bbb

    One guy was almost cherrypicked a year ago (complete w/ rigged poll) and the other guy's been ducked for close to half a decade.

    Floyd knows Floyd better than you do.

    So why does Floyd want Pac now and says nobody knows Khan?? I think Because Khan has improved and is the harder fight. why do you think Mayweather doesnt want to fight Khan now??

    Because Khan can marinate. The Pacquiao fight expires for good in 2015.
