    Khan should beat Kell Brook or Garcia in a rematch before he is considered slightly worthy for a top fight. If he ever fight Mayweather, he will lose by UD as every other loser FMW cherry picks to fight. Pac on the other hand, has a serious shot at knocking out FMW before 6th.

    Khan has problems with powerpunchers who stays on him and trades with him

    Floyd is not going to fight that way .

    Khans best chance of winning is to out work Floyd and I see that happening .

    Khan on points .

    Floyd would win and probably by stoppage. Khan just can't take a punch, and I believe he'll even be hurt by mayweather punches. Khan is a very good boxer, one of the best but he can't take a punch and you know with his style that will always cost him big time.

    Khan is all wrong for Floyd at this stage of Floyd's career.

    The fastest hands in Boxing.
    Lightening quick combos.
    Youth.
    Stamina.

    That's a HORRIBLE mix for a fighter who is slowing down A LOT.

    Things go horribly wrong for Khan when he gets hit. A very talented boxer who's chin lets him down.

    I think so, yes. Willie Limond hurt Khan and Willie Limond was a light puncher and he boxed at super featherweight before fighting Khan. If Limond can hurt Khan then I can't see no reason why Floyd can't, if he lands cleanly, which he normally does.

    Other than speed, Khan has nothing to offer Floyd.

    why bother talking about it , its just another fight that is not going to happen , floyd will take 2 easy fights against same old past opponents and that will be it , he is going nowhere near manny or amir .

    Think about this for a moment:

    Floyd going from Ortiz, Guerrero and Maidana...to a boxer like Khan...

    Although Khan isn't levels above these fighters HE IS WAYYYYY different and so much more of a threat to Floyd...Will Floyd really take such a fight? after fighting the slow smaller Marcos Maidana twice? I doubt it...

    The fans...

    Maidana did a great job to give the fans something to be interested about for about 4-5 rounds in the first fight...

    I think Floyd will time him and get him out of there round 7.
    Rounds 1-4 or 5 will be competitive but Floyd will start making him pay and round 7 lights out.
