    Yes, but Pacquiao saying "Mayweather's punches did nothing" is a whole other story. Pacquiao has a tested chin and will always compare punching power to the Cotto's and Margarito's of the world. Khan has a tested chin of glass.

    Pacquiao was bull****ting, those punches did plenty, he knows it and we know it.

    There's a reason no one can walk through his punches, he hurts big guys at 154. They get so scared to throw because that punch is always lurking in the shadows.

    Khan gets starched by May. Everyone knows that.

    He doesn't need serious power to stun or hurt Khan. I believe Algieri, Collazo, Gomez, Limmond and Diaz already proved that.

    Mayweather didn't even finish Marquez who was a bloated lightweight when he fought him. He didn't finish Judah either, he hardly had a chin of steel.

    You said feather-fisters don't beat Khan.

    Lamont did :deal

    And Floyd had a 67% KO ratio at JWW. :deal

    3 career fights there:
    Corley UD
    Bruseles TKO
    Gatti RTD

    All the evidence we have suggest Floyd hits harder than Lamont :bart

    Oh ya, Floyd's better than Lamont too, btw :nod

    Mayweather put Marquez on his ass, Marquez has never been stopped in his career.

    Khan has been dropped 10+ times and stopped twice. :rofl

    There's a huge difference.

    Marquez was a goddamn Lightweight when Floyd fought him and he STILL didn't put him away.

    He wouldn't finish Khan either even if he somehow managed to hurt him because he doesn't take risks.

    Floyd would have to beat Khan in a boxing match, and feather-fisters don't beat Khan.

    Arguable

    Those 3 sit on their punches more, we don't see May sitting on his punches.

    When he does, he puts a hurting on guys.

    14% KO ratio at 147 is not respectable power, it is feather-fist territory.

    He has power but won't use it often because his style is winning the easiest way possible. That's what he is known for. When he sits down, he could hurt you...especially if you have a chin of glass. He just doesn't do it often because he can beat you by hardly doing anything.

    If Mayweather feels Khan's "power" and says, "Hmm, I'll risk it with this guy. He can't hurt me." He could go for a KO. If he decides to fight smarter, not harder, then he'll blow him out and Khan won't win a single round.

    Yes it does, Willie Limmond put that boy on the seat of his pants and he can't punch through a wet paper bag. :rofl

    The dude has a chin made of the finest glass in China. :lol:

    Once May connects with those right hands, Khan is going to fold like a cheap tent. :deal

    Oh shut up :lol:

    Now we're going to "argue" that Floyd hits harder than Margarito if he "sits on his punches" :lol:

    Delusional.

    Mosley knocked Margarito the fcuk out, iron-chinned MARGARITO.

    Cotto knocked Judah the fcuk out after a bruising beating, Floyd went the distance with him.

    There's no comparison, they were punchers, Floyd is a feather fister. A feather-fister with broken hands.

    Mayweather has enough power to keep you honest i wouldn't say he hits hard i am big fan of his as well.

    Those 3 hit harder fighters themselves know if anther fighter hits harder Mayweather in the past acknowledged cotto,mosley had more power but said skills will always win.
