    Khan and shared by many boxing experts, boxers, legends etc. Including Floyd Sr and Roger.

    Like who? All I can name are Roy Jones, Paulie Malignaggi, Hearn, and Lewis.

    Hatton, Calzaghe, Haye, Nelson, Smith, Groves, Rios, Garcia, Leonard, Ward said he'd be a tough fight for any1, De la hoya, John Molina to name a few. These are just of interviews, who knows how many think it that haven't been asked. If Floyd Sr and Roger both think Khan is much harder than Pac, than that says it all really.

    Definitely khan. Khans speed is electric and no boxer even comes close to it. Floyd would be seeing stars after khan schools him with that speed. Only weakness khan has is his chin but floyd aint got the power to take advantage of that.

    Khan wouldn't school Floyd.

    Timing > Speed.

    A win over Pacquiao would be a career-defining win for Floyd.

    we all know that but Khan is the tougher fight right now. just the jab and accurate combinations makes it tougher IMO. pac throw combos but he wld and wide open for counters.

    But look at khans combos and the speed at which he delivers these. Wouldnt see them coming even if it was in slow motion.

    Khan. Pacquiao is still obviously the guy Floyd should be fighting

    Judah also got a knockdown and he had a good rally at the end of the 5th, he outboxed mayweather for the opening period of that fight. Mayweather is not actually that much bigger I suppose he looked like he had massive arms in that fight with the white gloves, he is a little bigger though. The Oscar fight was a split decision and Floyd did have trouble with the jab. Floyd actually looked great against Mosley after that hiccup at the start but picking out these fights in which Mayweather had some sort of problem in is interesing in that they all had a good reach. Khan is taller than most of these guys faster more mobile hungrier. Judah had the speed but not the mobility or height of khan, Mosley either and he was pretty much done. De La Hoya also even though he's a more skilled fighter. Khan brings a lot of these tools together which did cause problems to Mayweather in some way or another.That was a much better version of Mayweather aswell and these guys you picked has Mayweather in some of his mot difficult moments in his career

    Floyd would just adjust to Khan.

    Notice how the people who believe it's Khan simply say Khan or give a good reason as to why it's him. While, most of the people who pick Pac feel the need to insult people who pick Khan, and can give no reason as to why it's Pac. Lets you know that either just a bunch a Pac****s or Khan haters picking Pac, those that are able to remain logical are picking Khan...it's undoubtedly Khan.
