    I'm not a Mayweather fan by the way. Khan couldnt hit McCloskey clean, how will he hit Mayweather?

    What's your point?

    Mayweather >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>khan>Maidana>>>>>>>>>McCloskey

    If you struggle against a C class fighter what chance do you against someone with Floyds skill and defense.

    I was disappointed with Khan.

    He was hitting Mccloskey he hurt him in the 6th the problem is he has a habit of admiring his work. Instead going back and score more. He also has to work on sitting on his punches and really hit thru opponents not pitty pat.

    Mayweather owns him at this stage.Floyd is an ATG boxer let's look at a bradley fight before entertaining that fight. I was dissapointed too. The fact that he doesn't have any real brains in there.He looks like a gronk in there sometimes specially when Mcca was covering up there we have Mr KHAN put his foot off the pedal.

    Let it go guys, let the Brits have their fun with Khan because its the only decent fighter they currently have besides Froch who is miles better than Khan.

    Brits are just proud in the mediocre Khan so let it be.

    Don't tar all of us with the same brush. I'm a Brit, and I don't support people just because of their nationality. I've always said that Khan would get embarrassed against Floyd. The fact that some people even take the idea of a Floyd/Khan match seriously just leaves me shaking my head.

    It looks handy, but is it? Weak punches but they look cool. That's about it![/quote]

    Agree with you completely on that point....

    Khan looked terrible because of the upper body movement of McCloskey.

    Damn right he doesn't to fight McCloskey again lol.

    I'd expect Mayweather to actually try and land a few punches every round

    Someone never watched a McCloskey fight before - or boxing. Welcome to sweet science dude. Half of the game is called "defense", you better look up for the word at urban dictionary.

    McCloskey made Khan look like an amateur so what does that make Khan?
    Khan is not beating Bradley fighting with those stupid flurries that look like he is pushing his punches rather than actually throwing punches. Come on guys, get off the Khan Coolade already, Bradley will dismantle him and Mayweather would make Khan look like a complete novice. I thought McCloskey was clearly losing the fight by at least 4 or 5 rounds or maybe even all 6 but he made Khan look like **** in the process

    Actually it was a combination of Paul making him look bad and Khan himself didn't help matters by using the old bum rush and charge method and then windmilling his punches. Surely for all the work he puts in at the wildcard and the top class sparring he gets, SHOULD NOT STILL BE LOOKING LIKE AN AMATEUR!!

    McCloskey would give the likes of Bradley & Maidana absolute fits. He's proved he deserves to be at the level, albeit as a gatekeeper. Styles make fights. :rasta
