Floyd Mayweather vs. Amir Khan speculation & discussion

Your 1st post, Hello ALT :hi:

 

Cause Khan can beat Floyd, thats why Floyd avoided his poll result and fought Maidana instead, Khan has the style to beat PBF.

 

Hello, my name is TSoprano and not ALT. I Don't know what you mean :think

 

Explain to me how exactly Khan will beat Floyd please.

 

Wasn't Khan being called a Cherrypick during the time of the infamous Poll?

 

Mayweather would beat Khan like a spoilt child

 

Why doesn't Amir avenge his losses rather than have us watch him get schooled by Money for a great payday. That's all they want. Amir knows what's going to happen. And Manny just wants to get paid and give it his best shot. which won't be good enough..

 

I keep asking people to break it down for me how exactly Khan is going to beat Mayweather, no one seems to answer me?

 

i'll try too Azzr, Khan has speed, decent KO power, a good ish jab and has had several (8 i think) world title wins, with 2 defeats at this level (one very questionable). His ring IQ isn't the best, we know that, but in terms of boxing ability and talent, he has lots of it, and has arguably underachieved in his career despite being unified LWW champ. FMJ has not fought anyone with Khans speed for ages who prefers to box on the outside. IF they fought it would be a good fight too, with a different challenge presented to Floyd

FMJ will be 75-80% heavy favourite, and rightly so, but he'll be heavy favourite against anyone he'll face below 154lbs. Other than PAC, i can't see a decent alternative which isn't an obvious points win to mayweather. Pacs 7/2 to beat mayweather and Khans about 9/2 in UK bookies.

 

Mayweathers jab is better than Khans.
Mayweathers probably just as fast as Khan, and unlike Khan, Mayweather can do it all night.

Khan has decent power, nothing special, it wont help him against a guy with great defense and a great chin.

Khans fast flurries are predictable and normally last for a few rounds, Mayweather will figure him out very quickly.

Having talent is one thing, knowing how to use it is another. Khan has very poor IQ. If he had any smarts, he would have realised Garcia was waiting to load up on him. If Khan had any IQ, he would not keep dropping his hands after he punches. If Khan had any IQ, he wouldnt have thrown a flimsy uppercut from the outside against a dangerous puncher with long reach when he fought Prescott

Mayweather doesnt KO many guys, but you dont have to be a KO artist to drop Khan on his ass like Diaz and Limond.

So to sum it up, Khan has absolutely no chance.

 

How many fast fights has Floyd exactly fought?


Khan has the style the speed, reach, footwork, jab every tool in the book that could give Mayweather all sort of trouble.


Last fast fighter Floyd faced was Zab Judah and Floyd lost the first half of that fight and struggled badly, that was Floyd in his prime Floyd is 38 now and a fast fighter can definitely beat him at this stage.

I gave Maidana 5 rounds in 1st fight against Floyd, I can see Khan winning 8 rounds and outworking Floyd.


Plus Floyd doesn't have the power to KO Khan, lets be realistic, only times Khan been KO'ed (only 2 times and one of them was a stoppage where Khan finished on his feet) both were perfectly timed shots and ''Hayemakers'' and Garcia one caught Khan on the neck (not the chin)..

Khan will cruise to a UD against Floyd if he sticks to the game plan , it'd be like a chess match.


Ps:Khan himself has never been outboxed ever.

 

If I was predict I'd say his next opponent is Danny Garcia. :tired

 

How many has Khan fought?

In fact....Garcia, Peterson and Prescott werent exactly speed demons were they?

Not really.

Timing/accuracy negates speed and Mayweathers timing/accuracy is second to none.

Mayweathers footwork is better than Khans and hes proved it.

Every tool in the book, what other tools does Khan have?

I think your dreaming, or exaggeratting, Judah won the first 3-4 rounds not 'half the fight' and Judah in his prime was always more talented than Khan and a much more dangerous puncher. And are you forgetting what happened in the rest of the fight? funny how you missed that part out. The part where Floyd took Judah to school?

Khan has absolutely nothing in common with Maidana. If your basing a Khan victory on what Maidana did, your setting yourself up for a big fall im afraid.

Your getting forgetting all the other times Khan has been on his ass. Willie Limond wasnt a big puncher was he?

Secondly, When Floyd had as many fights as Danny did, guess what, they had the exact same KO%. Floyd can and will hurt Khan. Khan cant and wont hurt Floyd.

It will be a chess match for about 3 rounds, then Mayweather figures him out and Khan runs out of ideas...or just runs.

What great, fast, intelligent boxers has Khan fought? Malignaggi?

 

Since when did Khan pose a health risk to anyone?

 

That's why they're in the U.K. instead of Vegas... LOL...
