    We should know by the end of next year who is the King at 140.

    The King at 140 should then be in line to have a shot at the winner of Floyd/Pac if they want it. Because at 147 **** is dead apart from Floyd and Pac.

    Dude...

    I agree, the low blows were bull****, but B-Hop kept fighting on. I didn't see the RJJ fight, so I can't comment on it. I was surprised to hear that B-Hop was supposedly drained afterward, especially since RJJ seems to shot these days.

    As for Floyd "fighting like a man", Floyd is cherry picking his fights against low risk opponents. Nothing about that says "fighting like a man" to me. Sorry.

    Khan would not fight on the inside and would tie Floyd up when coming close, Khan is great at maintaining distance and controling distance, working off the jab.

    Even if things go that fast, I think Floyd would actually move up to 154 where all the real killers are after he beats pac. There's Martinez, Cotto, Williams, etc at 154. Why would Floyd sit around and wait for kids from 140 that are taking a million years? He's the biggest draw, so he can only move up.

    I honestly don't think things will go that fast at 140. Bradley is using Floyd Mayweather type of reasoning even though he's never even been on PPV before to not fight Alexander. Khan talks about how he wanted to fight Bradley, but when push came to shove he's looking to fight old man Marquez now. Devon Alexander can't even find an opponent. Maidana is missing in action.

    :lol::lol::lol: Delusion.

    Floyd knocks out Khan with the first lead left hook or straight right hand he lands. You're talking about two different classes of fighters. They're not in the same league, not even the same ballpark, not even the same ****in' sport.

    Because Floyd is out there, stepping it up now...fighting "killers". :lol:

    Floyd wants lowest risk/highest visibility paydays as possible. He isn't about tough fights.

    And you know this, man! :nono

    You are forgetting Khan is a big boxing name here in the U.K, Khan vs Mayweather here in U.K would break our PPV records for sure.

    BIG MONEY/ bigger than anyone at 154

    Plus Khan at 147 will be his perfect weight soon

    Cotto is right there at 154. He's the third biggest draw in boxing right now.

    Talk about overrating a fighter:rofl...Let Khan take on a stiff challenge at 140 and then talk...Until then, you cant gauge a fighter's ability until he's actually tested!

    I'd argue that Andre Ward has just as high of ring intelligence as Floyd right now. Same goes for Hopkins, though he's an old fart.
