    I think you misinterpreted what I was trying to say. I was saying that the person who said Khan KO no question has nothing to base that on. I'd do with Mayweather KO/TKO Khans only hope would be points.

    Tough as nails? Are you sure you've watched any of Roger Mayweather's losses where he folds like a deck chair?

    Judging the Khan I have seen so far I have to go with Mayweather. Roger was a lethal puncher and was good technically. I suspect that he would have KO'd Khan by round 8.

    Whoever was able to take the other man's punch better would win. Roger was a good fighter with a bigger punch then Amir and had a tremendous right hand.

    Roger was actually a very good fighter despite his dubious chin. Rangy, good skills, excellent right hand power. I'd favor him over the more athletic, less technically skilled guy in Khan.

    Exactly Roger ws the whole package but Tough as nails??:lol: No way his chin was his achilles, if he had a chin he probably would have been an all time great.

    Khan wins this.

    Roger puts up a tough fight though.

    Both are very chinny so its whoever lands, Roger the bigger puncher and more skilled, Khan probably better conditioned, both very fast. I think roger lands first and KOs Khan

    Roger at his peak was a better fighter than Khan is today.

    Roger defeats Khan. If Maidana could find the mark in the middle to late rounds, Roger would have as well and probably sooner in the bout.

    Mayweather wins by late stoppage.
