    Amir Khan says that Floyd Mayweather has agreed to fight him. I think Khan has a great shot at beating him. Awesome match up...I think Amir could cause problems for Mayweather.

    Much like Ortiz, inexperience and immaturity will lead to a loss against Floyd. Floyd is just too experienced and mentally tough. And there is a huge disparity in skill. Mayweather KO6

    Khan can cause problems for like 2 rounds.

    Mayweather is far too skilled, intelligent, versatile, and just plain on another level than Khan.

    I won't give Floyd much credit for this cherry-pick (yes it is a cherry pick).

    If May was more active (like fighting 3x a year...hell, even 2x a year) then him fighting Khan would be an okay matchup. As it is, him fighting once ever 1.5 years would make this a little less than ideal. Still, not the worst match up out there. Khan is decently big, he's fast, he's got an okay pedigree and resume, he's a champion in his weight class, he has a good team behind him.

    Yeah, he got sparked by Prescott and he didn't look stellar against McCloskey but all in all Khan v May is still somewhat intriguing.
