    Khan would get systematically disassembled, agreed. But would win a few rounds along the way, imo.

    To put Khan in the ring within the next 2 years with May would be the DUMBEST idea that GBP could have! Money would humiliate Khan.. Not a good fight for his career...

    I guess we can agree on that.

    Why all the fuss ? Lets get the Pac/PBF **** over with first. As is its way too quick to even think about this fight. If and its a big IF, Khan unifies the titles at 140 then there may be a possibility. And if that were the case I think its pretty pointless to speculate at this point how 2 fighters are going to look like 2 years from now.

    To even think about putting Khan in with Mayweather is laughable in itself. You Khan fans need to calm down a bit. Amir beat a hand picked opponent with no punching power. Floyd would take him to school and make him look like the novice he is.

    I think if Mayweather is smart (which I think he is smart but not brave) he should jump on and try to hype up Khan now and fight him soonerr than later, cause Khan is only gonna get better with time, and if Floyd waits to long (while taking easy hyped up fights) he will have not one but two fighters to tap-dance around and dodge. I think Pacman beats him now, especially in a 17 foot ring which Floyd agreed to before talks broke down. Even in a 21 foot ring Pacman would still catch up with him. Pac is just to tough.(can take Floyds punches), and will use body shots to stop Mayweathers side to side movement. I just think if Mosely can land a couple of rights and hurt Floyd. Pacman will land tons of punches and get Floyd out of there in one of the late rounds.

    Because it's relevant. Mayweather considered fighting Mathew Hatton in the UK before eventually coming to terms with Mosley, for goodness sake.

    What happens if Pac - Mayweather can't come to a compromise? (for the record I think they will fight)

    Who will Floyd fight instead?

    Khan is promoted by G.B. so there's a lot of sense that comes in this speculation.

    Roach was afraid to let his peak manny pac in the ring with a 37 year old Shane Mosley, he wouldn't let his developing young champ in the ring with the most skilled fighter in the game.

    +1, the fight would have the entire world watching. Alvarez brings in latin america, and Khan brings in the UK and his fellow muslims.

    Hell yeah, Berto might **** him up, atleast against Mayweather he will be in with # 1 fighter in the sport and make some good money. But against Berto its high risk- low reward.

    I personally would not like to see Khan agreeing to that fight no matter how much GBP pressured him. Khan has enough talent and will earn his money in time. He should not jeopardize his career at this stage for one massive pay day. As I said before from Khan's career perspective this fight is a lose lose until he at least unifies the division @140. That would allow him 2 years and at least 3-4 fights to mature.
