    can someone actually give the reasons why pacquiao is more dangerous of a fight than khan when according to puertorricane, khan is more younger, the naturally bigger guy and the faster fighter?

    This is my vote if it was an opition. I think Mayweather wins at 154.

    Pac has better footwork, punch placement and the power to actually hurt Mayweather and make him pay for any mistakes.

    it's not an option and floyd won't fight him either. floyd said he wanted the winner of william-martinez but proceeds to fight ortiz. also at 154, i don't think martinez is a much risky fght for floyd than pacquiao at 147.

    If the Question is who is better overall Pacquiao or Khan and who will be better overall mid 2012. The answer is an easy one Pacquiao is and will be the better boxer. However, Styles make fights. At least that is the saying. Pacquiao's style is made for Mayweather. He's going to come right at him and be open for counters. Pacquiao's defense can be best described as above avrage. I'm not arguing that Khan is better than Pacquiao or that he is a great threat to beat Mayweather. He however has advantages that Pacquiao dose not have. The first is he's tall with long arms. That is always an advantage in boxing. Next and this is probbly more important than his size. After all size is only an advantage if you use it. Khan is more of a pure boxer than Pacquiao is. When are going to learn that swarming Mayweather dose not work?
    I don't expect Mayweather to have any real problems with either Pacquiao or Khan. Expect for getting Pacquiao in the ring with him.

    Pacquiao might have lost step(s) by then..and Khan might have improved significantly.

    Only time will tell..

    Obviously it's Pac, but I wouldn't be surprised if some *****s would say Khan. After all, Khan is also a YOUNG HUNGRY LION.

    there was once a thread back in 2008 asking if who would win between gamboa and pac if they fight a year later. i'm sure most old timer know who the thread starter is and he also thinks highly of gamboa saying gamboa would beat pacman in 2009 but not enough to beat a supernatural in joan guzman. :lol:

    but i got what you're saying. pac is not exactly a fresh fighter and could in any time now drop his game significantly especially with his fighting style.

    Sergio and thats because he thinks in the ring and is not so robotic plus he's bigger, nice speed and power, plus he's a lefty.

    I alway thought the fighter to beat Floyd will hold natural physical strenthgs such as length and size....i think its harder for smaller guys or guys around is size to beat him because he has freakish arm length for his size coupled with everything else he has and does.
