    Yawn! People come with their virtual matches. Deal with this, Floyd beat Canelo, Floyd beat Maidana(2ce), Floyd beat Manny! He is the greatest of this generation of boxers! Amir does not have the tools or boxing iq to be effective.

    Canelo was inches short on a few of his counter attempts before finally catching him. Floyd would walk Khan into all kinds of shots

    According to these nutjobs, basically Floyd loses to whoever he didn't fight, Margarito, Williams, Khan....don't matter how many times they lose or get put to sleep by lesser fighters than Floyd. They all somehow got the remedy to beat TBE. They want Floyd to lose so bad there imaginations and fantasies take over rational thought

    How many people have said that they truly think Amir would have beaten him?

    Most people have said that Amir would have caused him issues and Floyd didn't seem to want to fight him.

    They're right.

    Khan doesn't have the ring IQ to win.

    :deal

    People and these fantasy matches are crazy. Khan took this fight knowing that he would lose because he is a con artist like all majorlevel fighters are including Manny who was taking selfies for the biggest fight of his ****ing life. He knew he would not win he was just happy to be there like every Mayweather opponent after Cotto.

    :deal:good

    If he had of fought Margarito they would have said that Baldomir would KO Floyd because he beat Judah.

    The Williams fight was never mentioned ever and Paul admitted that to Fight Hype, so :huh

    Khan is just desperate to cash his name out. He was losing to guys and building their names up, Prescott, Peterson, and Garcia were not as major until they beat Khan. He just wants to get beat by someone high profile for once.

    Khan's so fast Algieri won 5 rounds against him
    Floyd is supposed to be scared of a guy who just went to sleep?

    It's always shocked me that so many people have long claimed that Khan would be this big challenge for Floyd. I'm still not seeing it after all these years, and it is baffling that some people still cling to this notion.

    Forgetting the fact that Floyd has faster hands than Khan (which I clearly believe he does, although I'd be willing to concede this point as "debatable"), Floyd's feet are so much quicker and his overall footwork and ring generalship is so much better, that he'd have Khan twisting, and turning, and off-balance all constantly.

    I see Floyd peppering him with crisp counter shots while avoiding most of Khan's offensive flurries, before Floyd ultimately walks Khan right into a counter he never saw coming. Floyd might not have tremendous power, but it's the punches you don't see that cause the most damage, and this has especially proven true for Khan.

    Amir is a decent fighter who'd have a good chance against many a good fighter, but Floyd ain't one of them.

    Mayweather is all wrong for Khan.

    Garcia, Algieri, and Canelo were able to time Khan.

    Floyd should be able to as well.
