    Some say Khan is the heir to the P4P throne.

    GGGG as good as he is would get beat ultimately.

    Don't think he can beat him, I think he troubles him more than any other fight can at welterweight but to say he would beat him is a statement too far in my opinion.

    I personally think Floyd wins a comfortable decision.

    Well it's definitely a 55/45 type fight.. Khan has a good chance with the jab speed.

    It's just.. if you're not picking a draw.. you're picking a fighter.

    I see it as an 80/20 type fight.

    Khan may be fast, but he can be timed and countered. His defense also isn't that good.

    It's a near 50/50 fight.. you'll be surprised.

    It's the jab speed.. rather than hook speed overrated.. plus Khan is finally fighting at a natural weight for a big little guy.

    I think Floyd wins by a close but clear points decision. Just think that Khan has the style to cause him problems that no other welterweight can.

    Timing is speed..

    Silver speed vs. gold timing..


    But gold is more than that..

    Khan looks blinding for three or four rounds then slows down and is timed much easier, if Garcia, Peterson and Algieri can give him nightmares I'm sure Floyd will figure him out. He just nullified the speed of manny pacquiao, amir won't be useful beyond 3 rounds imo.
