    and im asking you to name these so call boxers that Floyd never fought?

    its all good accusing him of never having fought any speedyboxers, but you have to back that up with names

    Who are these supposed fast fighters he's been ducking, other than Pac? I'm looking at the Ring Ratings from 2007 to 2013, and the only fighters I see that are really noted for their speed are:

    Martinez
    Alexander
    Malignaggi
    Berto
    Williams
    Bradley
    Khan

    Other than that, I don't see anyone.

    Another posters come up with a list of names noted for their speed, I'm aware that earlier in his career at lightweight etc he fought many speedy guys, but he was probably naturally bigger than these, khan would be quicker with reach advantage and this would be different, Since Judah, he hasn't fought anyone noted for their speed.

    Who do you think will beat FMJ then? Other than Pac which is a different subject. You've avoided answering this, the title of the thread is "only Khan can close to beating Mayweather", which I partially agree with, though only give him a 25% chance.

    Fukcing hell now not only is Mayweather ducking Khan so too is Pacquaio:rofl

    Two ATG fighters who have taken on and beaten fighters much greater than Khan could ever wish to be.

    I used to think MVC was the worst poster on this forum but at least he wanks over an elite fighter, you on the other hand don't have that luxury.

    I didn't mean FMJ was ducking fast fighters, his options to fight, both in terms of who had belts, / rankings and who were the most popular in terms of PPV happened to be slower boxers,

    Think a Williams fight would have been interesting

    I'm starting to sound like a khan fanboy here, I'm really not, I think FMJ will win, and will most likely he'll win against anyone below 154. Any potential opponent mentioned for FMJ most posters can easily give several reasons why they'd lose, as he is rightly p4p no 1.

    Khan would not to better than maidana did in the first fight which is wining at least 4 rounds, possibly more. Khan gets dropped and either gets stopped or loses a wide UD.

    Floyd would look excellent in this fight, its the pressure fighters like Maidana who will give the old man problems, not guys like Khan who will let Floyd dictate the pace, and try to win by being the better skilled Boxer. Floyd will be in cruise control the whole fight maybe minus the first round or 2.

    No one believes a thing that comes out of Floyd's mouth .

    He saying Khan needs to avenge his losses and then he will fight him ?

    Bull****

    Just like he said whoever wins his poll will be next to fight him

    Khan wins the poll

    Then Floyd go's ahead and fights Maidana .

    He's just not a man of his word and he proves it time and time again

    Pretty much why no one takes him seriously whenever opens up that mouth

    Probably just posturing.

    If Mayweather is avoiding Amir Freakin Khan, then he's even more shameless than I thought
