    Floyd fought a shot pac who got knocked completely cold Pacs style ages much quicker then floyds

    he was in more wars took more punishment had 25 more fights then Floyd

    so that argument is ****ed he should of fought pac in 2010 he didn't just like he never fought anyone at their bets

    maidana beat Floyd which show you Floyd was overhyped

    He was the fighter of the era Pac's own trainer Roach even said that. I guess Pac is overhyped as well a prime Pac lost to a shot Erik Morales.:deal:

    Norton had a chin to withstand Ali's best. Khan not so much. Not a good thing versus an accurate, smart puncher.

    I love Gatti but to compare his defense to Khan is completely wrong. Gatti makes Khan look like Sweet Pea.

    The point is its null and void when that same same fighter who allegedly winning easily is laid out cold on the floor

    This is what I mean, Floyds gonna land his pot shots as usual, but its a style that would suit Khan better imo. No pressure to worry about(style wise), yeah Floyds strong enough to deter fighters but that's as much to do with timing an accuracy as much as anything, if he throws he's landing 99% of the time. Khans flurries WILL catch Floyd more than others, even if they don't, it'll look like there's only one person throwing on output which looks better than nothing. Floyd has to turn it in to a dog fight imo to stop Khan for the win if its on neutral ground. Like you said earlier, there's a reason he(Mayweather) didn't take it at that stage of his career

    He's hearty enough to come through rough moments if tagged. May doesn't punch like Canelo, hasn't one shot KO power either. Mays the obvious favourite and the greater fighter, but when Khan wanted it Mayweather wasn't really in to fighting speedsters and swerved it for Maidana, a fella that gave him far more trouble than people ever thought to the point of a rematch was needed to clear stuff up. Tbf, I thought when he asked the fans who's next and it come back Khan, I thought it was on

    I'm not saying he does. I just don't understand why Khan fans treat the Canelo fight as some kind of victory.

    What I saw was usual Khan. Starts quickly but after a couple rounds slows down. I saw Canelo landing body shots and round by round getting closer up to the point I messaged my brother saying 'Canelo getting closer now' and just as I sent it Khan was out cold.

    Canelo was at no point in that fight concerned with Khan's speed but Khan fans still today talk like he won the fight

    I'm a Brook fan, I wouldn't big up Khan trust me. He was a head in the fight doing well, the ending was always going to happen though with Canelo. People thought it would be a trouncing from bell 1 and over a lot quicker, that's why I think they are happy with a 6 round ko ahead on the cards loss. It was Khans power he wasn't concerned with imo Canelo. If he had power at 160 Khan then that speed coupled with it would've really been a problem
