Do you think Floyd wants any of Khan after last night?

    Khan has done nothing that boxers before him haven't. Why wouldn't Floyd what a piece of him?

    I think Khan does match up well, physically. But, mentally, he is levels below Floyd. The clips from Floyd training after about 15 months, don't tell the whole story. He will get back in fighting shape, and, more than likely, have enough to deal with Ortiz (we shall see). And that level of physicality will be enough to deal to with Khan, as well (provided he does not take another long layoff beforehand). If Khan is Floyd's next opponent, w/in the next year after Ortiz, Khan is going to lose, IMO.

    Yes, Khan has tremendous desire to be the best. But, we shouldn't underestimate Floyd's desire to remain the best (or one of the best). Floyd has shown nothing in any of his fights to indicate he takes his status for granted. His work ethic is legendary, and that is w/o an Ariza type figure in his camp to push him to his limits.

    He didn't say it was the same outcome, he was saying that Zab looked the same, which as I said previously is kind of true (Zab spending a lot of time in the bout not throwing anything). Against Mabuza Zab was losing on the scorecards...you had the fight 58-56 (I think IB may have had it 59-54 for Mabuza) for Mabuza before the TKO and prior to that momentum was flowing towards Mabuza in a big way.

    Mabuza isn't half as talented as Khan and he was whoopin Zab's ass without doing anything complicated or without the benefits of having great quickness. Like I said, Khan is levels above Mabuza. Sure, styles make fights, but I had expected Khan to win with ease barring another KO out of nowhere.

    Both Pacquiao and Khan were ktfo by guys they were too shook to rematch. Khan beats an older Judah, and all hell has broken loose:lol:

    Yes, Floyd still wants Khan (or anyone to avoid Pac).

    I am curious what tune you will be singing to when they do sign a contract to fight. Not only that, but I'm wondering what excuses you will make after Pacquiao loses as well.

    I'm going to bump every "Mayweather is terrified of Pac" thread when the fight is signed. It's going to happen, too much money to pass up and once Bob Arum feels he is done milking Pacquiao, he will put him in with Mayweather.

    Lets not get to crazy guys. Amir was impressive and got a little more respect but it would have been better if this fight ended with no controversy. I believe Amir hit Judah with a clean shot but others dont and it seem Judah was just there to collect a payday. I will admit though Amir won this a lot easier than I thought, but nothing that will worry Floyd.

    You got it backwards, Khan is a true nightmare for Pac. Hes been sparring with Pac and I think he believes that he can beat Pac and so does Roach. Thats why Khan is moving up to 147 and Pac will stay at 140. Pac dont want Maywheather because Khan is kicking his ass in the gym and he realizes what Floyd is cappable of doing to him. Thats why Khan didnt have no problems with Judah because he knew how to handle a short, fast, lefty. Hes been doing it in the gym. At this point, Khan is not ready for Money. Maybe in a couple of years. As for Pac, he just cant beat Maywheather,wrong height and wrong style.:bbb:bbb:bbb

    Bradley knows he has no chance against Khan hence running like a *****, Khan already stopped Ortiz in the amateurs and beat Maidana who's basically a better version of Matthysse. Don't see your logic.

    The only threats to Khan right now are PBF and Pac.

    :lol:

    You think Floyd is afraid of Khan because he beat mental midget that's been on the slide?

    B.S. talk. Remember when Floyd said he wanted to fight the Williams Martinez winner?

    Hatton is a better fighter than Amir. You bought into all the handspeed and fast combos hype.

    :yep

    Amir just got his AZZ kicked last night by a counter puncher spontaneously applying pressure.

    I'm so nice, I be amazing my damn self.

    :patsch

    still good enough at apply pressure to easily whoop Amir's AZZ. Lamont knows

    I told you so.

    :patsch
