    he put on his gloves and quickly saw doves

    Yes, because Khan's only weakness is his chin. :patsch

    Khan makes technical flaws, and is unable to adapt.

    Khan is a boy many flaws

    His glass jaw is always the cause

    his sorta fast hands has power that stands

    at the forefront of Murphy's ol' Law

    I cant see Floyd hurting Khan either .

    lets say Floyd does surprisingly engage with him more than his other opponents just because of his reputation of having a weak chin .

    That can play right into his favor , Khan at this point has the faster hands . He will be able to hit Floyd a lot more .

    Most of Mayweather's opponents believe that he can't hurt them. Then they get in the ring with him and change their mind. If Khan truly believes that Mayweather can't hurt him he will probably be put on his butt if they fight.

    Even When they get into the ring with him , their mind still doesn't change .

    a couple of fighters have spoke on his power before .

    Chino said he never felt his power .

    Judah said it was nothing impressive .

    Canelo said hes an accurate puncher , but not a hard puncher .

    He would hurt Khan. He's very accurate with his power shots. No one has walked right through Mayweather's shots. If he has enough power to get the respect of fighters with good chins, then Khan will have problems absorbing too many of them. All that holding is just gonna leave him open for an uppercut or check hook (when he is reaching in to tie up).

    People say Mayweather hasn't fought anyone with Khan's speed. But, when has Khan fought anyone with Mayweather's speed? Even this version of Floyd is way faster/quicker than anyone Khan has fought.

    Chino was hurt by a body shot in the last fight and Judah had to low blow Mayweather to keep from getting stopped. Alvarez may have not been hurt but he sure didn't try to walk through Mayweather either. Something got his respect.

    As they all so desperately tried to escape and move outta the way of the right hand as the jab to the body made Chino cringe and ***** up in the 2nd fight like a litttle girl... LOL... Judah got a supreme ass-whoopin with all his dirty tactics and Canelo needs to shut the hell up because he got his ass whooped so bad it wasn't even competitive. So,listen to the losers if you like. If Khan steps in he'll be the next KO for Money... Bad hands and all....

    skill & the will helps to pay bills

    but when trouble is near, Blokes can hold dear

    an idea called victory that they can adore

    But at the end of the day they end up on the floor...

    The speed and accuracy got Canelos respect . Not Floyds power .

    Zab's stamina and frustration due to inability to adapt is what lost him the fight . Not Floyds power .

    I don't remember not 1 point during the fight where Zab was visibly hurt , staggered , buckled etc . So We cant say he low blow Floyd because he was about to be stopped when there was no evidence to suggest that .

    Chino was not that seriously affected by that body punch .

    Khans body punch seriously affected him , he made Chino believe he was on fire . He stopped , dropped and roll , We even heard him yelped .

    Theres a big difference between both punches .

    The mind will change when Floyd's jab finds it's range

    And Khan with a frown will be fiercely beaten down

    with no malice even slight, just business that night

    As the Wankers & Tossers lose in a yawner.....
