    Got nothing to do with it, Khan under Hunter is doing great, and after Khan makes light work of Algerie he is ready to beat Floyd..

    The quicker Floyd rides off into obscurity the better the sport will be.

    :lol: straight threw Pax out the window. The next hypothetical Floyd-Killer who has "all the tools" to beat Floyd has emerged. :lol:

    Many people felt Khan would have even a better chance than Pac well before Pac Floyd was made.

    Khan is not fighting September. He misses Ramadan, ISIS will behead him.

    why would he this year but wouldn't take it in sept last year... he clearly stated he can't fight then because of ramadan...

    Obviously it isn't but it would mean he has to train through ramadan. Not happening

    Couldn't beat garcia, couldn't beat Peterson, struggled vs Diaz but we are to believe he has the skills to beat Mayweather.

    Floyd haters get more funny every damn week.

    How can we tell he is doing great? :huh

    Look at his opposition under Hunter. They have been complete feather fisted opponents and if that isn't enough they have ensured that Khan has the height and reach advantage also and it still hasn't stopped him from getting knocked down :lol::rofl:patsch

    Put Khan with Hunter in the ring with the SAME opponents he had when Roach was training him and you will get the same results which was knockdowns, knockouts, and embarrassing losses.

    The ONLY difference in Khan between Roach and Hunter is Roach made him fight punchers. So, saying Khan under Hunter looks 'great' is a lie. It is smoke and mirrors. Khan is a Glass Jawed fighter. That will NEVER change. You could give him Ray Arcel and Eddie Futch and when he fights anyone with power he is getting knocked down and knocked out.

    First off, while I admire Khan's ambition of wanting to fight for bigger paydays (like every other dam contender,) he needs to cool off with calling these guys out. He's fought only a couple times at WW and it wasn't against top fighters in the division.

    If he really wanted to do things the right way, like most fighters are forced to do unless they're a P4P/PPV star, he should fight some of the live dogs in the division, you know, guys that have actually been campaigning their for several years. Guys like Thurman, Brook and Porter all seem like viable options.

    As far as how Khan would do against Mayweather, Uncle and Sr have mentioned Khan sparring little Floyd a few years back and weren't impressed by him that much. Sr said after the Pacman fight that FLoyd deserves an easy fight for his last match under his SHOwtime contract, and he specifically mentioned Khan as an opponent for this easy fight.

    If Julio Diaz put Khan on his backside, than pretty much anyone with a decent counterpunch can do the same. He's got talent, but FLoyd's got over a decade more of experience against much more solid competition. He's too green to be taking on FLoyd right now. Mayweather has too much left in the tank for me to think Khan would pose a problem against him.
