Would Amir Khan have been Floyd Mayweather’s toughest fight?

I know I already said this, but wins over Porter or Thurman would have been better than a win over Khan.

If Floyd beat Canelo with no catchweight at 154 in 2013, then beat Porter and Thurman in 2014, then Pacquiao in 2015, you'd have people calling him the GOAT.

 

You all sound stupid af trying to compare Maidana and Khan
1st off did anybody actually WATCH the fight they had together outside of 2/3 good rounds Khan got systematically beaten down and was holding on for dear life to survive to bring up that fight is embarrassing.

2nd in 2013 leading up to the fight Khan was coming off going life and death with Julio Diaz and was unranked at 147, meanwhile Maidana had a top 3 win at Welter that year snatching the 0 of Broner and taking his WBA title so unranked fighter coming of a struggle vs another unranked fighter or a champion coming of winning his title over an unbeaten champ.

Next career wise Maidana is a former WBA Jr Welter Champ and WBA Welter Champ, Khan was a WBA Jr Welter Champ and a IBF Jr welter Champ
Both are 35-5 Khan has been ko'd by Prescott,Garcia,Crawford,Canelo, and a debatable loss to Peterson meanwhile Maidana has losses to Mayweather in the Rematch and Alexander, and debatable losses to Kotelnic, Khan and Mayweather in fight I Kotelnic was a split decision that he Maidana won a card, a UD to Khan who got saved by a point deduction and 1st round knock down without just the deduction Khan would have lost and a majority draw vs Mayweather historically Maidana is greater than Khan and beating him was and still is a better win.

And lastly regarding the poll Mayweather put up a poll on his site that most ppl don't even know about I voted on 3 polls and none of them was on the Mayweather promo website, if you look into it every major publication put up the same poll the one on Mayweather's website got maybe 100k votes, polls on ESPN, Yahoo, and sites like that had over a million votes and the only poll that Khan won was one so pretty much what you saying is the 100k people who voted on Mayweather's website is a more accurate depiction of what the fans wanted than the millions of people of voted on MAJOR world wide publications like ESPN or BBC sports.

 

You obviously have a high opinion and high regard for Amir King Khan. Unfortunately that high Opinion and regard is not shared by me and lot of others who consider him as Amir Queen Khan. If the man had any self respect he would sign up to fight “Special K” Kell Brook but he or she seems reluctant or afraid to fight Kell. It’s one of the reasons amongst others he/she is regarded with disdain. However as they say to each their own. You see qualities in him we see defects in her. I think her high profile Knockout losses and the number of times she has been floored at all weights he/she has fought in prove my point.

 

Mayweather would have embarrassed Khan, it would have been funny to watch but I'm glad Khan never got that payday, he didn't deserve it, he talked about himself like he was in the same bracket as Pacquiao and Mayweather and the truth is he was average.

Khan never won a world title at Welterweight and hasn't held a world title since 2011.

I need to repeat that.. HASNT HELD A WORLD TITLE SIMCE 2011. Nearly a decade without a world title and some people talk about him like he is elite.

Khan was never elite, never great, he was an average world champion.

 

Malinaggi was nowhere near Floyd`s level and couldn`t punch, he really wasn`t that good at all, Hatton out-classed him with ease, I don`t get it.

 

No wy would Khan v Floyd have got much attention, what are you talking about? US fans never considered Khan elite, why would tey, he kept losing for God`s sake.

 

The Garcia trained Maidana was clearly improved over the version that Khan fought.

Mayweather would have made Khan look silly, Khan was fast, but he was also a shoe shiner who lacked any pop. The Hunter trained Khan was worse than the Roach Khan too imo, sat on the back foot far too much.

 

That’s okay.

That’s up to them.

 

Dude that fight was scored 114-111/113-111, Khan got a knocked down in the first round them got dominated after 3 if not for a point deduction even with the knockdown Khan would have lose or at best gotten a draw stop it. Let's be real about these fights in the championship rounds 10-12 Khan was holding on for dear life getting his a$$ beat.

 

I think you misread my comment that's exactly what I'm SAYING ESPN, Yahoo, BBC sports, Fox sports, etc all major publications put up the same poll and overwhelming only Maidana won them all, Khan literally only won one that one he did win had least amount of votes and Eason the least known site
