    He has the height, reach, jab and handspeed to limit the exchanges.

    Then why did he duck him and fight Berto for less money?

    I once thought I saw Amir Khan in person at a farmer's market. Turns out, it was just a walking daikon radish.

    That's a personal anecdote for you. Because I love you as a friend and brother.

    Prime Khan was all wrong for aging / about to retire Mayweather in 2014-2015, but prime for prime, come on now.

    Floyd was on another planet to Khan, prime for prime.

    If he would beat him or not we will never know.

    Mayweather ducked him though and thats a fact.

    Prime for Prime, yes but Khan did pose stylistic problems for Floyd.

    No he doesn't. Floyd has the longer reach. And Khan's jab isn't even that good.

    So deluded. Floyd's speed, defensive work & reflexes mean that Khan would struggle to catch him clean.

    Against glass chin Khan I think it would be very likely, once Mayweather starts walking him down its game over.

    Floyd figures Khan's timing around 3 or 4 & gets him outta there soon after that TKO regardless of how old Mayweather is. It would take an extra couple of rounds if FM was at his worst.
