    Earlier this year he was getting lambasted if he fought khan


    Khan beat 1 ww contender in the top 20 now mayweather is supposedly gonna duck or is ducking him now? Which is it?

    Khan went from cherry pick to world beater with one win?

    Khan is a glass jawed con-man and nobody actually believes that he deserves to fight Floyd OR Manny.

    He probably won't beat Floyd as Floyd is also very fast, has great reflexes and timing, is very smart in the ring, is very experienced and very hard to hit but then again, nobody will beat Floyd at 147. However with Khans speed, work rate, combinations, skills and general style he will give Floyd a more difficult fight than most.

    Styles make fights.

    Khan won a poll that Floyd created on his own website yet still didn't face Amir, and faced the man that Amir beat 2-3 years earlier!

    And he also displayed head movement and improved footwork. People just refuse to see any development, no one is calling Khan an ATG and the true acid test will be to see if these improvements hold up against an aggresive swarming power puncher......

    You're flip flopping everyday now. First he ducks Khan, then he cherry picks him, now he ducks him again? Wtf be consistent. Either you like the Khan fight or you don't. You can't choose to call it a cherry pick but call it a duck at the same time.

    First you say anyone not named Pac is a duck.

    Now you say not fighting Khan is a duck lol

    So in your logic is only option is Pacquiao. Stop skating around it.

    Everybody y'all said he ducked, when he signed to fight them your bravado changed to lame. Excuses.

    He supposedly ducked SSM and DLH but anyone who actually was watching boxing in the late 90s know he was calling them out and arum held him back....he beat both when arum wasn't involved


    He supposedly ducked cotto, but soon as arum wasn't involved the fight was made and he won

    People said he never fight canelo, he did and schooled the kid


    Notice a pattern? Like he said y'all find anyone with hopes he loses but he beats em then come all the vs excuses. Proof is in the pudding...besides PAC man he has faced every challenger of his era....a fraud cant beat 13 former or current titleholders in a row.

    Look it up....mayweather has faced stiffer comp than any active fighter today and some people are blind with hate.

    let me make this clear I have always said if he fights anyone other then pac its a duck

    BUT if he does not fight pac then fights someone like the ghost yes he is ducking khan in that way do you get my point?

    Then why was Floyd widely criticized when he mentioned Khan as a potential opponent?

    Get the feeling Floyd is going to on vacation again just like when he was trapped between Margarito and Paul Williams....
