    You honestly think that Khan would give FMJ trouble?? You've got to be kidding. So his style was not enough for Garcia (who has pretty much been exposed), but too good for Floyd??

    Khan even struggled with Algieri, but will give Mayweather trouble?

    Some of you have to be putting these stupid posts for attention.

    there is no indication whatsoever in khan's last fight to show that he can beat floyd. he just boxed to survived the last bell so as floyd sr said, "he doesn't deserve a good payday".

    I'm going to use one of my favourite phrases now. Mayweather will beat Khan like a rented mule, he has no answer for the straight rights and floyd will time him after 2 rounds. If he can time Pacquiao pretty quickly and Garcia, Algieri and Peterson can get Khan's timing down, he will not pose any threat whatsoever. Mayweather probably has more power than him as well.

    I actually think Mayweather can stop him. Once he gets him on q*eer street, which will definitely happen on more than 1 occasion in the fight, it's just up to him to push the gas a little bit on his offense and put together some combinations. His accuracy, timing and counterpunching ability is way too much for Khan.

    The moment Khan feels the first right hand counter is the moment that Khan become hesistant and trigger shy. It happens with guys much bigger than him that fight FLoyd, I see no difference with Khan.

    but then this is actually a very good fight for floyd since khan has a weak chin and not so powerful. floyd is more skilled, experienced, and still has speed to counter him. he would actually look good in this fight unlike vs thurman, brook, ggg. floyd is after safety fights and money not legacy.

    What exactly has Hunter "improved"? We saw that he still has the same flaws he's always had.

    Combinations? You mean where he throws the same 1-2 combo over and over? Or do you mean his stupid little shoeshine flurries?

    Footwork? He didn't look comfortable on the back foot against Algieri.

    His defense hasn't improved. Look at how much he got hit in his last fight.

    Peterston didn't nullify anyone he was on PEDS. He's a cheat a fraud and a disgrace to boxing

    I already debunked the idea that you need power to trouble Khan.

    It's nothing short of a joke that people think Khan can outbox Floyd.

    Khan has ALWAYS been mostly attributes. Take them away, and he's an average fighter.
