    The Khan reach thing is way overstated, IMO.

    Floyd is actually the one with the longer reach.

    Khan couldn't even dominate a mediocre Algieri, whom Pac didn't give a single round and knocked down what? 6 times? It's a joke Khan's name is even mentioned with Mayweather. He could earn his shot if he could man up and fight Brook. Right now he's irrelevant.

    We saw in the Algieri fight that Khan has ALWAYS been mostly attributes.

    Khan isn't in the same SOLAR SYSTEM as Floyd in terms of technical skills.

    Only lost to 2 punchers.. Garcia is not a counter puncher he punches with you.. will to take to give..

    Even with 2 points deducted many people had Khan winning vs Peterson go watch that fight Peterson did not win more than 3 rounds..

    Barring 2 poor outings undr Hunter Khan is a different fighter now.. and we will see this vs Floyd..

    2 poor outings? That's 2 too many.

    I like how every time Khan fails to impress, people just say he had an off night.

    The reality is Khan isn't that good.

    The Khan from Alexander fight would of made light work of Algieri.. Khan had an off night... Khan needs big fights to keep him motivated. .

    Oh? Did Khan have an "off night" against Garcia and Julio Diaz?

    Face it, Khan is an average fighter.

    Pacquiao was a poor outing from Floyd? :rofl

    He beat Pacquiao decisively.

    You're such an idiot.

    He had an off night against Diaz due to weight? The fight was at a catchweight.

    And Khan can't outbox Floyd.

    He doesn't have the ring IQ to do it.

    Lol

    That's funny

    Khan has big UD wins over good boxers like Kotlenik, Paulie, Zab, Alexander guys who can box not punchers but Khan made light work of them..

    I just can't wait..
