    For the first two rounds, he then gets countered and timed to hell for the next nine, and knocked out in the eleventh.

    I actually believe Khan would cause Mayweather more problems than Pacquicao with the right game plan. Unfortunately in the Peterson fight he let his emotions get the better of him and decided to exchanged punches rather than box and move. Still believe Mayweather would win comfortably, however with Khans size and speed(and as I say the right gameplan) could initially cause Mayweather problems.

    first 3-4 rounds Mayweather has trouble timing Khans long and fast shots but starts to get into his rythym walks him down and counters to a 8-4 type UD

    Yeah, in the lead-up to the fight I can definitely see him annoying Floyd.

    Yes definetly. With his speed, height, reach, jab, of course he will.

    Floyd will eventually figure him out. But for the fist 6 rounds, i reckon Khan would be winning, till flyd takes over.

    I can see alot of probs for floyd up to rd6.

    Possibly even with a KD.

    If a shot Judah can do it so can khan. Probably still loses.

    For a round or two until Mayweather gets his timing down.

    Khan has a shoter reach than May and doesn't have the footwork to make a flat flooted Floyd move. His entire gameplan is to run in, throw a ton of ineffective shoe shines then get on his bike...wash rinse...repeat. He's going to get outclassed and KO'd
