    Khan's speed is awesome, power too, but he doesn't have much defense. Void does not have power, so that could help Khan. Pac has the style to beat Void, Void knows that, which is the reason he has been running from Pac for years.............

    This is a far bigger joke than Ortiz and Guerrero combined.

    Visualise the fight in your head, what can you see Devon Alexander doing that could possibly trouble Floyd? He brings nothing to the table, not fans, not suspense.

    Khan has never been outboxed, he has only been KO'd, Floyd is not a KO puncher, but he has never been outboxed either. The're is a little suspense in how Floyd can handle Khans speed and range. I'm sure Floyd rapes Khan but if Khan has a 10% chance of winning, Devon has a 0.1% chance. The guy was thoroughly beaten by Bradley. Again, its not just about results, its how those fights went, if Devon was outboxing the **** out of Bradley and just got caught and ktfo, then I'd be shouting Devon all day, but as it is, Floyd will do what Bradley did except much cleaner and easier.

    Con Vs. Void.................Void thinks he is conning the fans................actually, Khan is very fast, has power, just needs to make an adjustment in his defense.

    So true.

    Khan's lost two of his last four fights by annihilation and hasn't fought anyone of note for over two years.

    I spoke breifly with Amir yesterday when he was the guest of honor at a local event. I asked him about his next fight and he seems very optimistic about Mayweather.

    He said he offered Danny Garcia 'very good terms' but his team refused a rematch outright.

    I asked him about Kell Brook - he just laughed & said "Who?!"

    If i had a delete button to completely erase a person from my consumption it would be Khan, no way does he deserve a Mayweather fight. Some-one agree back and tell me how he deserves this over Danny G

    Khan is deluded, his day has been and gone, he cannot hang with teh ellite in teh division but yes he will get the big match on name only.

    Hatton got the Pacquiao and Maywether fight due to his massive support, i just dont see Khan having that same support so im at a loss as to why this fight would happen.

    Sick of these foregone conclusion fights - same as pac rios this past weekend, like we expected anything other than what played out. I will give pac a by as he was coming back from brutal KO.

    khan v brook does not go past 6 and it will not end well for khan imo ,
    brook is as fast and as accurate as garcia and probably more powerful

    I am a Khan fan & to be honest he does not deserve a shot at Floyd yet. Had he taken the Devon A. fight then maybe but he's now missed that chance.

    However, the man would UD Brook all day! Kell would not be able to deal with his speed. Plus Brook is not really a global name - so not too sure if a deal can be agreed

    He doesn't deserve a shot at floyd

    Why isn't he calling out Bradley?

    His eternal rival who has the best résumé in boxing

    Love how Garcia is blatantly ducking Khan. Garcia knows if he cant land that left hook 2nd time round, Khan shuts him out for 12.

    He should have been more active this year. The Garcia fight was 18 months ago and he's achieved nothing since then. It will be amusing when Floyd passes on the fight and Amir is left on the shelf having passed on Alexander et al.

    I'd love to see Khan vs Brook or Khan vs Garcia 2. Khan vs Mayweather also isn't to bad. Probably as good as any other Mayweather fight that can realistically be made.

    Probably true but had Alvarez, Guerrero or Ortiz done much more to be deserving?
