    You got even money for Khan by KO. Maidana was a 3:1 dog.

    The experts pick PAC to give Floyd some problem so they asked Floyd.

    EX: Are you going to fight Manny Pacquiao, is Mayweather going to fight Manny Pacquiao?

    Floyd answer everytime: Well I'm a smart man, you look at Ali and how he is today. If Ali can trade all his money back for his health he would do it in a heartbeat. My health come first, I want to be able to spend the rest of my life with my family a healthy man.

    I don't think any have stated this situation :huh
    Maidana, IMO, would try and drag Floyd into a brawl and Floyd will not fall into the trap:nono

    Maidana is tough as nails, has improved his boxing skills but still not ready for slick Floyd:think
    He would bang on Floyd when he could but I don't see it be often enough to win the fight.

    :smoke

    Neither Khan nor Maidana can trouble Mayweather yet Maidana remains to be the better fight when compared(keyword right here) to Khan.

    It's rigged to take away the blame from Mayweather when he fights Khan in a joke matchup.

    Maidana won all the independent polls, IE Fightnews etc.

    I agree with Khan being a different fight style for Floyd, but since Maidana has been training with Robert Garcia, he actually has improved his boxing skills. I think both of these fights would be interesting fight for Floyd and either fight would bring the best out of him.

    that's because khan didn't market any of those polls. General boxing fans want to see Maidana vs Floyd, whereas Khan's fans obviously want to see Khan. Khan's marketing of the mayweather's poll made a big difference.

    I suppose Maidana vs Broner II on the undercard isnt too bad winner gets Floyd in September

    Will be like Floyd's last card people will be looking forward to the co main event more (Matthysse vs Garcia)
