    Easy, compadre. I'm your friend out here, all right? He beat lesser versions of these fighters than Floyd though. While Marquez is an "aggressive counterpuncher" He also has very limited movement. He doesnt move around a lot. Hatton was a come forward fighter, Margarito was a come forward fighter. Pac struggles against BOXERS. Its been proven.

    "Styles make fights" is such an overrated saying. SKILLS MAKE FIGHTS. and no one in the sport today has more skills than Floyd.

    Pac has no chance against Floyd, but until it happens, out opinions are just that, opinions.
     
  2. Hatton was washed up at the time and Mayweather already beat him.

    Cotto was fighting at 154 (as opposed to 145, weight drained by Pacquiao) and rejuvenated from the Margarito loss.

    **** outta here *******

    The cotto weight thing is the *****s go to insult. Hey idiot cotto weighed 146 the fight right before he fought PAC. He wasn't weight drained. :hi:

    floyd is tryna make max money...swift might be marketable (angel), but i doubt angel goes crazy against floyd...alexander, lara, (insert any goldenboy fighter) are not nearly as big monetary wise as glass chin khan, who gives a care about level of opposition, for him its about the bottom line

    Khan's a worse mismatch than ANY of the aforementioned except possibly for Alexander.

    Khan gets whopped worse than any of those guys, and is less deserving than any of them.

    1. Khan does not have one punch KO power
    2. He has British fans, the best supporting in terms of spending money, but also because they are blind and believe he has a chance against Floyd
    3. People will say styles make fights and Khan has a chance because Floyd's hands are done and he can't fully unload and sit down on his punches.

    Fact is, this is a joke fight. The "best" fighter of this generation fights a guy with a glass chin who has been KOed a number of times already, yet Pac, Martinez, GGG, and other decent punchers are much more deserving of such a fight, since they actually have a chance.

    Floyd only fights where it is all stacked in his favour. That's why he isn't the best.

    Having better speed than someone does not mean better boxing skills.

    Great fight for Floyd, the fight will prove who the best is, it's not a faraway fight and no health issue at all.
