    You mean old washed up Collazo, old Judah.

    Maidana didn't hurt Khan? You sure about that. Khan was hanging on.

    If Danny Garcia can hurt Khan Mayweather can.

    i am referring to aged floyd, as that was the time the fight would have happened. Speed is a problem for anyone getting on.

    I believe May can Ko Khan. Because Khan's problem is his own speed is his downfall. He loses balance and his brain just can't track his opponents movements while doing his combinations. As precise and fast Floyd is he can find Khan and capitalise on that but his Money style just won't do that and UD the fight. No one can win against Floyd without putting him into robes and working on that body. Even then judges don't give you the win though. Look at Castillo, Maidana and Pac.

    PAC was never close to beating Floyd

    Well 2 years after losing to Khan, Zab Judah gave Danny Garcia a tough fight and busted up DSG's face. Maidana had Khan in some trouble, Khan was hanging on, but he survived it and won the fight. I'd expect Floyd to catch Khan and win some rounds, but due to Khan's speed advantage, I'm just not convinced that Floyd could hurt Khan badly enough to stop him or win enough rounds to win the fight if it goes to decision.

    People don't actually think Khan can outbox Floyd, do they?

    he kind of did. Because Khan had fast hands, but in reality Khan never had a chin to compete with the top guys. Floyd always avoided top guys and waited for them to lose something.. And his whole legacy is based on this

    Please in the future when discussing boxing do not refer to Coner. It has nothing to do with professional boxing
