    Glass everywhere if he gets in Pacquiao. I'd quite like this match up. It'd be funny to watch the Khanturds go into hiding again after his latest devastating loss.

    The idea that he could outbox Floyd is laughable, TBH.

    Khan makes a lot of technical mistakes. Floyd exploits his opponent's mistakes.

    And who cares what Khan did to Collazo and Alexander? Neither of them are even 1/10th as skilled as Floyd.

    Exactly **** footwork can't fight on the inside fights dumb at times somewhat easy to hit. PBF would have a field day with Khan.

    Khan doesn't have the ring IQ to win.

    Idiots think speed alone is enough to beat Floyd.

    Khan gets stopped by round 6 for me, he'll put up a valiant effort but he can't keep Pacquiao off him. Pacquiao struggled with Mayweather's speed which would be a pertinent point but it was the brain behind that speed, Khan can't out think Manny.

    Floyd wont have no field day vs Khan, Khan is all wrong for Floyd who's mind set of a defensive fighter would be his downfall vs Khan..

    Floyd will have trouble timing Khan due to the fact he likes moments of inactivity and likes to time his good time to get off his shots, Khan wont allow him many moments like that.

    Plus Floyd never punches back in mid combo when the other guy is throwing rather he will cover up and go to the ropes..

    Khan wont allow the time other fighters give him, Khan knows to fight the fight at a high tempo and set his workrate which Floyd will not enjoy..

    Trust me Rodger knows Khan's a tough fight for Floyd and they will i repeat will never fight Khan even if Khan beats Thurman and Brook..

    Floyd would lower Khan's work rate with his counters.

    If Algieri and Julio Diaz can time Khan, surely Floyd can.

    It'd only be a matter of time before Khan does something stupid, and Floyd capitalizes.

    The problem with that is, they were willing to get hit in order to land on Khan, Floyd doesnt want to get hit, he wont throw with Khan, only after Khan.

    Why would Floyd not want to get hit? Khan can't hurt him.

    Also, Khan STILL lunges when he punches.

    Because that would make Floyd look bad, and thats not his style you know that regardless of Khan having power or not..

    Khan wont lunge in vs Floyd, he will respect him..

    But he still won't be afraid to get hit.

    What makes you so sure Khan wouldn't lunge against Floyd?

    Also, Khan leaves himself WIDE open after a combination.
