    If you read some of the posts you would know this to be true. Not everyone is a balanced poster like you. King Khan would destroy that hype job Thurman. And he would box rings round thay little old conman Floyd. Fact.

    Let me break the news.Khan already said the fight is not happening because of Ramadan. So find someone else that you visualize beating Floyd. It's the same results. People sit around and say this and that and when the fight happens, they're mad. Accept greatness when it's upon you.

    Like how you accept a mans ***** when it is thrust into you. Without question or complaint. King Khan only needs a few weeks to beat that bald little conman. Fact.

    Like how you use the minority that think that score is wrong,but fact is it was 118-110 deal with it. King Con is easy work too ,hay is this the same Con that got TKOd by Garcia? How fast is he and he could clip him.

    Not me. This fight is 110% a payday fight for Khan, which is why he has been banking on it for too long. Stylistically, Khan will look decent in round 1 and probably round 2, after that it's a one-sided ripping in favor of Mayweather. Khan literally has absolutely nothing but speed, and speed is something Mayweather knows how to deal with at the very top level. Aside from speed, Khan is predictable, has poor punch resistance, decent power(nothing Mayweather hasn't dealt with before), poor stamina and low ring IQ. I will be genuinely shocked if Khan competitive for more than 3 rounds.

    I'm a muslim and even though i'd want Floyd to beat Khan before the retirement, Khan doesn't deserve the pay-day.

    Devout muslim?:lol:

    Wasn't he sending pictures of his tiny ***** to a stripper a couple of years ago? :patsch

    Ali was a Muslim and he is the most popular fighter of all time.

    Not sure if you guys have even seen Khan's recent fights, but under Virgil Hunter, he doesn't fight like that anymore, but now he fights more defensively with a high ring IQ. Under Virgil, Khan is a threat to Mayweather, according to plenty of boxing experts, including the likes of Ricky Hatton, Oscar De La Hoya, Paulie Malignaggi, Al Bernstein, and even Floyd Mayweather Sr.

    Khan has faster hand speed, quicker jabs, taller height and higher work rate than Floyd. Khan also has fast foot work, high punch accuracy, long reach and range control comparable to Floyd. Khan is also a good counter-puncher (though Floyd is the better counter-puncher). Floyd will not be able to fight on the outside and control the range with Khan, since he also fights on the outside and has great control of range himself. If anything, Khan would have the advantage in range control because of his taller height, faster jabs and higher work rate. Floyd would also struggle to counter Khan's quick jabs (that's what Devon Alexander tried to do and failed). Also, Floyd isn't a power puncher, and hasn't KO'd anyone in 8 years, so it's highly unlikely he could KO Khan. Khan would stylistically be a very tough competitive fight for Floyd.

    Theres no way it would work against the height and speed of khan, he would be lit up early :lol: . I reckon he wont even use it at all, he might try it around midway but he will give up as soon as khan gets combinations off unanswered.
    Sr. would surely get him to try something else.
    thoughts?

    The only way he gives it up is if somehow Khan turns south paw I see no reason to a abandon it against an orthodox fighter ..Khan to have success must work off the jab
