    Good post.

    And Algeri completely changed his style for that fight.

    So Khan had to constantly adapt through out the fight

    People don't study the details plus 2 previous 147 outings Khan came in the ring 160+ vs Algieri Khan came in 155lbs and said reason for that was they were expecting Algieri to run so Khan wanted to be fast on his feet, yet he surprised them by coming forward but Khan adapted but people give him no props for that..

    Really though? '..catch/shoot..' ?

    Mayweather connects on a huge variety of WWs with over 50% of his power punches. Been proven time and again.

    Let's say Khan is TWICE as good defensively as the next best....just for getting ridiculous. That still mean Floyd at absolute worst lands 20% of his power shots. Enough to trouble Khan badly unless we see a career best performance from him.

    About the same as a win over Berto. Not much value at all.

    No, Mayweather is just taking the p*** out of Khan.

    People should just stop talking about Mayweather Vs Khan, even suggestions like this just encourage Khan and his fans to continue to talk Mayweather, it's time to move on.

    Khan has spent over 2 years, over 2 years chasing a fight he didn't deserve and Berto gets the fight, there comes a point when you have to say it is never going to happen for whatever the reason.

    Khan wouldn't beat Garcia anyway, sooner or later Garcia bangs him in the mouth and Khan tastes canvas.

    Decent opponent, no better or worse, Maidana level. Not got the style to trouble Mayweather unlike Maidana though.

    I think he'll fight Khan or Brook for sure, I'd say he'll have a three fight extension, this Berto fight suggests that to me.

    Sure he would have then after the fight you wouldn't have given him an ounce of credit and called Khan a cherry pick like you do after every PBF fight.:deal
