    By Floyd's standards, yes. Did Ortiz, Guerrero, Maidana etc deserve their shots?

    I think Khan will be an interesting fight, not an extremely tough one. It'd be a chess match. But if Prescott, Garcia, Maidana, and Molina can all time and land on Khan, Mayweather will too. The difference between Floyd and those guys though is his power.

    Nuthugger shut up.

    Khan is an easy nights work for PBF.

    Can someone tell me why people think Khan is this tough matchup for Floyd? Other than speed?

    They can't.

    It's ludicrous... it would be EASY for Floyd.

    Workrate, Jab, foot speed, Reach same as Floyd, Straight punching style which would have Floyd trying to cover up and go on the back foot, Power? Maybe Khan looks stronger at 147 and Floyd's power looks weaker in each fight.

    Freddie The Joke Coach Roach will get you KO'ed.

    Vigil Hunter will make you a fighter that can go 12 rounds and win.

    Khan lokks better now then anytime in his career.

    Floyd would adapt and find a way to win.

    Who do you think would win?

    People say Khan's never been outboxed. Floyd is the best pure boxer in the sport right now. Something's got to give.
