    No he won't. He's too devoid of ring IQ and has very glaring technical flaws.

    Floyd will take maybe a round or 2 to figure Khan out and Khan will not be able to adapt.

    It is a mismatch. An old Floyd is light years better than Khan.

    All signs point to Mayweather fighting Khan. I'm not a big fan of this fight at this time. With only a few fights left, there's better fight out there that could be made. It's his career though.

    He's fighting mayweather end of. It's going to be announced at the superbowl you can bet your house on it. Contracts already signed but they don't want to announce it this soon as the fight is in May.

    shitty fight, but it looks more and more like this is what we will get. If they can stack the card by including Garcia, Maidana, Thurman, SC etc then I will likely buy. If not, I'll find another way to watch.

    If this fight goes forward I hope HBO and TR counter program against it. Send a message to Showtime & GB they can't shovel sh*t like that at the top level.

    TR could offer a quadruple header:
    Garcia-Gambo
    Donaire-Walters
    Chavez-Vlasov
    Vargas-Postol

    this is how Mayweather hypes his fight. he lowers your standards, by making you think he'll fight Khan (same case with Matthew Hatton), then goes on to fight somebody better but still sh!t. so you'll go and say. meh atleast it's not Khan.
