    I know right. Moron keep talking about speed. What made Mayweather great wasn't so much speed but moreso his ring IQ. And Khan ring IQ? Forget about it.

    Of course these people know that. They are just hating as usual. Mayweather vs Khan isn't even a contest. It would be an easier fight for him than Pacquiao was. lol

    What about Berto?

    He's 5'6, with a 68" reach.

    Coming off of losses against Guerrero and Karass.

    Face it, Floyd didn't fancy fighting Amir, even if he could have clearly beaten him.

    Khan beat maidana.. And he can very well beat broner. What did the guys I named do to deserve the payday? Like I said, a khan fight was one of the most lucrative fights out there for Floyd, but he didn't take it for some reason, maybe he saw something in khan.

    Floyd obviously didn't agree.

    Pbf just fought Pac in the fight of the era. He could have retired in the ring after the Pac fight he had nothing left to prove. Berto was coming off a win and had a belt so I don't know what you're talking about.

    No one outboxed pbf. Are you saying khan who is an inferior boxer to pbf outboxes him? You're delusional.

    Hate is a powerful and intoxicating drug it seems.

    Indeed they do. And IMHO, Floyd's style is all wrong for Khan in every way imaginable.

    I could very well see Khan outbox floyd easy the issue is floyd has not got the power so khan should be ok

    You damn troll how many people have outboxed pbf? He's undefeated you know. Khan has 4 losses but yet pbf who has him beat in all skill departments foot work defense counter punching accuracy gets outboxed by him. Lmfao power is overrated skills arent remember that.

    What about the body punches that inevitably wore Khan down?, your eyes didn't see those or was it your limited mind that didn't comprehend?. Sure, Khan's performance was impressive but that was hardly unexpected by fans that have thoroughly followed him. He always looks impressive early till he eventually slows down and is reduced to being basic. It's only his speed that makes him appear extraordinary when in reality he's as basic as it gets.

    As far as Mayweather turning down Amir Khan is concerned, all I can say is.... :lol: You're one pathetic moron.
