    1. Floyd Mayweather would absolutely embarrass Amir Khan.

    2. Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather are truly on another level from the rest.

    I agree... Mayweather would KO Amir in a bad way.... and Pacquiao is a beast too.

    I thought Khan clearly won, but the fight was competitive. Amir would get smoked by Pac or May.

    Khan should fight Bradley. Algieri should fight Malignaggi.

    Agreed.

    I think it also showed that Algieri belongs. Khan was wrong for him in every way and he still made it a great fight.

    Yeah, this new trainer is good for him. His gameplan made it competitive. If he tried to box him, he would've gotten dominated by speed.

    It proved that Algieri is an elite level talent and how good a shot Pacquiao still is when he's got two functioning arms. Don't forget that Algieri performed better against Ruslan with one eye for virtually the whole fight than the top 5 ranked P4P Bradley did with two. Ruslan was robbed against Bradley. And Algieri shut out the same Emanuel Taylor who came within a whisker of paddling Broner's ass and now Algieri fought on even terms with the very highly regarded streaking Khan and lost a razor-close one in most fans eyes.

    After training Andre Ward, Virgil Hunter must be disgusted with Khan's inside game. Like, "What in da fuuuuuuhh is this boy doing??" :rofl:rofl:rofl:patsch

    I don't know. I saw plenty of hold and headlock. No where near the Ward technique though.

    Khan did improve on the hold and hit part though, but nowhere near the level of Ward.

    I was really impressed with Khan's conditioning in this fight. I'd still like to see Khan vs Mayweather.
