Sometimes wide looping shots coming from the side are hard to see, Khan didnt have any problems blocking Paulie's shots which were much faster. Plus Floyd is a defensive counter puncher, Khan would charge or start off Floyd would try to counter, Khan wont be on the backfoot under pressure.
Well he has to Floyd wont come forward, Khan will come in land a 4 or 5 punch combo before Floyd would know whats going on or respond and get out.
Amir needs to show some improvement before I'm interested in seeing him fight Floyd. Floyd's footwork would be too much for Amir right now.
He absolutely would against Khan. Khan has no inside game. Why would he stay on the outside and give Khan his best chances with his speed, reach and jab?, He would back Khan up and Khan dont know how to fight backing up. And dont compare Paulie M to floyd, he keeps his hands low and was easy for Khan to land on all night. If youre talking 2011, its plainly obvious after their last fights who would win
Yeah sure Khan still needs a few more fights, as said vs Maidana he would make anyone look bad, you cant run for 12 rounds from him, the guy will walk you down and make you make mistakes. But yes Khan can improve on his footwork, but vs boxers Khan's footwork is fine. When Khan is ready i feel his handspeed will upset and shock Floyd and put him into a shell at times because Floyd would of never got in the ring with someone as fast as Khan. Khan needs to keep improving that Jab that would be a key to beating Floyd in the future.
Very good point, thats why Khan's jab needs to be perfect and try to stop Floyd coming forward if he has that plan, but i dont think he will, his mindset would be i can beat this kid like i fight normally why should i change for him?, his ego will keep him the same to start off with anyway.
