Floyd Mayweather vs. Amir Khan speculation & discussion

Says at the end he'd take the underdog, breaks down the fight pretty good. If you threw $100 and Khan pulled it off on rounds you can make a nice gain ha

Even a broken clock is right twice a day-that's about his average.atsch

 

Is that a CRT TV in the background??

 

i guess u didnt get the humor in the post atsch

 

:yep

 

Im in the huge minority and I don't give a fucc, I think Mayweater will lose the first 3 rounds, and once he adjust will not be offensive minded enough to knock Khan out or down. I don't think a Khan SD is totally out of the equation

 

Khan too linear
Khan's footwork too sloppy
Khan's defence too bad


to stand up against Mayweather.



Khan didn't kick Judah's ass because of handspeed entirely. He kicked his ass due to his range and non static footwork. Also Roach told Khan everything he needed to know about how Zab fights... all the little tricks zab does... Khan could time every single one of them. With Mayweather it's a whole different ball game.

 

Khan needs to do the unthinkable to win the first 3 rounds. which means he would need to be reckless and no way you winning rounds against Mayweather reckless

 

So you think the first two rounds of Garcia fight wouldn't look good against Floyd? Do you think if Floyd hit Khan with a hook in an exchange it would hurt Khan the same? I just cant see Floyd wanting to exchange with anyone and trying to pot shot, and Khan doesn't fatigue like the usual Floyd opponents

 

Those rounds were good but that was Garcia not Mayweather. Not saying Khan cant win 1 or maybe 2 but he wont win 3 rounds in a row. probably wont win 2 rounds in a row. Thats hasnt against Mayweather in a long time if ever!

This will be a differnt fight then usual though. Khan keep a ahigh workrate and moves alot. way different styl then Mayweather has seen in a long time. Mayweather will want to pot shot him but if Khan stays active and moving it'll be hard.

I think it will be fun to watch but Khan is not gonna win 3 rounds in a row and most likely wont win 2 rounds in a row.

 

:good Its nothing but the truth and sometimes the truth hurts (well if you are a Khan fan, or you defend this fight :rofl)

 

So many differences between Khan and Judah. Khan doesn't put his punches together like Zab, Khan doesn't have to brain of Zab, and the most important factor in this fight is the fact that Floyd has improved since 2006. He's smarter, and is fighting more defensively smart than ever before. Especially with Floyd Jr in his corner.

I want Khan over Maidana, but they will both lose.

 

Coo..i respect that. I know Garcia isn't Floyd but I think the reason no one has won the first couple of rounds against him is because no one has the style of Khan along with speed. I think Floyd lack of offensive activity will hurt him in this fight, in the judges eyes at least

 

He's point is silly, "taking your foot off the gas" will get him murked. He's talking about the most accurate puncher in the history of the sport.

 

Khan has the speed to give mayweather trouble, but he doesn't have the boxing IQ power or ability to beat mayweather. Khan is like a sports car who's fast in a drag race, but he can't corner nor control with any intelligence where he's going. Alto his work with Virgil Hunter has improved him and slowed him down form having his foot on the gas full throttle. He's still has his limitations, he doesn't setup anything to open his opponent up, his defense is still shi to running or pushing.

Funny thing is I believe Maidana is a easier fight for Floyd. A slow predictable slugger is right up mayweather's Allie for being tailor made for mayweather to pick apart and look good for 12 rounds. The element that makes Maidana interesting is his power, he has a punchers chance. Khan at least brings something we haven't seen mayweather face in forever, he's fast and i believe he can out work mayweather and win a few rounds. But in the end khan throws punches in bunches but wouldn't land much of anything cleanly. After a few rounds may would have seen all khan has and adjust and make him mis n pay all night. Khans output would slow plus he would be discourage from the fact he can't get to mayweather.
