    Yeah Floyd would’ve beaten him but he wouldn’t have iced Khan the same way Danny Garcia did. It would’ve gone 12 rounds and I don’t think Floyd wanted to risk looking bad against a guy who had been brutally KO’d before by lesser fighters.

    Khan isn't good enough for Floyd to duck.

    Why is this a topic every few months? Khan is barely mid. Who gives AF?

    Khan was B-level at ABSOLUTE BEST.

    Mike Tyson is ducking the Jake Paul rematch.
    Amir Khan ducked Reggie Strickland.

    Mayweather ducked him, but he also would have beaten him. Bradley, Brook, Thurman, or Porter would have been harder fights for him, not that those would have been the toughest fighters he avoided. Pacquiao would have beaten him in their primes around 2010. Erik Morales might have done it in the lower weights. Antonio Margarito or Paul Williams circa 2006 would have been nightmare fights he likely would have lost because of their height, reach, volume punching, and power. Things could have gone either way for him if he hadn't retired to avoid a De La Hoya rematch. They were pretty evenly matched.

    Pacquiao has no jab and can't cut off the ring. He's not beating Floyd.
