    i b
    even i think most fighters need eight with warming up sparring losing weight etc etc

    but you know more than me so i will take your word for it

    i cannot think of a pro excluding journey men who would or have took a meaningful fight with less than six weeks to prepare

    but no doubt you will find them

    :conf Don't just take my word - Freddie Roach has won trainer of the year how many times? He feels 4-6 weeks is generally adequate.

    Hell, the longest Pacquiao ever trained before Mayweather was, I believe, 7 weeks for Morales. (can't remember which installment)

    Its hard to say, Khan would have to watch his weight during Ramadan to see he don't put on weight, so after Ramadan he could go into camp just focusing on the fight not losing excess weight..

    If that's the case 6 weeks is enough.. but make it 5 weeks with 1 week to recover from fasting..

    Glass hands Mayweather can't KO anyone

    King Khan is gonna run him into retirement

    I dont see even Khan being ko'ed, Manny walked right through Floyds biggest punch like it didnt register, at best Khan gets staggered and recovers.

    It's a joke that people think Khan can outbox Floyd.

    Floyd is on a completely different level from Alexander and Malignaggi.

    Khan has no one to blame but himself for not getting Floyd. He should have fought Alexander for the IBF title back in 2013.
