    Maidana has developed a left hand under the tutelage of Robert Garcia, I'd pick Maidana to stop him late.

    Danny Garcia, however.. would knock Khan out in one.

    I'd much rather see Garcia take on Maidana for his title in Danny's debut at WW with the winner taking on Mayweather in September.

    Khan really has no business being spoken about for the top fights in the division, especially after his putrid performance against Diaz. He honestly looks like his best days are behind him.

    I would enjoy seeing Maidana ruin Khan.

    So the one who beat Maidana now has no right being talked about in the same conversation as him..riight. The hate for Khan on here is amazing.

    Khan's already ruined Maidana - flooring him with a delicious body shot in the first round!

    Why in the world does Garcia/Khan need to be next? LOL.

    Khan was exposed more against Garcia than Broner was against Maidana.

    Khan made an offer to Garcia already a couple of weeks ago, Garcia denied it.

    Maidana/Thurman need to be next

    Garcia vs Paulie need to be next

    Well, he looked awful against Julio Diaz, a fight where Khan was supposed to accel and be able to look great in. This sport, like many others is a "what have you done for me lately," theme and Khan just hasn't looked that good in the past couple years.

    He doesn't deserve a rematch with Garcia after his awful performance against Diaz and I don't think he deserves a shot at Chino either who's had a very nice string of wins against Soto-Karass, Josesito Lopez, and now Adrien Broner.

    The fight between Khan and Maidana was 3 YEARS AGO. A lot has changed since than, including Khan getting KTFO. You can't live in the past and continue to think Khan is still a world class fighter, because he really isn't.

    Shawn Porter got a gift draw against Diaz and then scraped an SD past him in a rematch, look what he did to Alexander.

    Khan was easily winning the rounds against Garcia but didnt show him enough respect, got wild wanting to knock him out. Id give Khan the edge over him in the rematch. Garcia is overrated, very durable and has an iron chin but he's there to be beat

    Danny Garcia is more worthy than Khan, Khan has a bunch of blind ****stani and Brit fans that DKSAB that will bring in the money. But Garcia deserves it more

    You're writing him off prematurely. He beat Peterson (got robbed and cheated). He was outclassing Garcia until he got careless and walked onto a bomb (Garcia's Dad's pre fight antics got onto Khan's head). He then changed trainers and is going through a transitional time, and he's still won 2 fights since even if they wern't great performances.

    You're forgetting one thing- Khan is a very stupid fighter when he gets stunned. Instead of trying to regain his senses, he continues to stay in the pocket and fight toe to toe with his opposition. Garcia would knock his head off if they met in a rematch because Danny possesses one punch KO power with his counterpunching (especially with his left hook,) and Khan would continue to engage him after he gets stunned with a punch.

    The Diaz fight was a very telling fight, Khan doesn't look like he's able to take a big punch that well anymore, and Garcia would just unload on him with that left hook counter. Khan might have better technical ability, but Danny is no slouch himself and definitely holds the edge in his counterpunching and overall power, 2 of Khan's major weaknesses.

    It's not like Garcia got lucky with him. Khan got knocked down and at the end of the round he had time to recover and regroup for the next round, and he still fought like an imbecile and decided to continue to engage with Garcia in the pocket. This happened for 2 successive rounds which ended up with Khan getting KTFO. He's a fun fighter to watch but that's because he's an idiot when he gets stunned, doesn't know when to go on his bicycle or when to hold his opponent when he gets hurt.

    That's essentially the reason why Khan will never be an elite fighter nor does he deserve a fight with the P4P king. It's ridiculous to think his name is being mentioned as a potential opponent for Floyd, khan has done very little the past couple years to warrant a shot with him. It's just utterly ridiculous how delusional Khan is.

    I have to agree with this statement. He does fight dumb and his defense is the biggest issue. He needs to learn how to take a knee etc..but let's give Hunter a chance and see if he can teach this. It's still early days
