    Khan has never been counted out, Manny has and by a guy with only a 64% k.o. ratio...

    1. Garcia has a 60% KO ratio - now awful - he's put around 17 opponents away.

    He's no beast - but he can evidently punch a bit.

    2. I agree that Khan should avenge his loss to Garcia - he's mentioned wanting a rematch and one article I found said the Garcia camp have said no THREE times. I sincerely hope the rematch gets made soon though. Hopefully once Garcia has had a fight or two at 147.

    3. Khan has never been outboxed and presents a genuine challenge to FMJ - and a lotta people would like to see what FMJ would do.
    I'd rather see Pacman v FMJ first though.

    No, he needs to rematch Garcia at 147, Brook can face Thurman and then the winners face each other in a final eliminator.

    Thats not a fight breakdown dude. Its all well and good saying things like timing beats speed but those are just two factors in a fight with many variables

    Child please, Floyd beats him in a chess match fight. Kahn will not be able to get the flurries off due to supremely effective counterpunching.

    Floyd in his high guard just waiting for khan to come.

    Floyd's timing is impeccable.

    Khan has the style to trouble Mayweather but at this stage after defeating Alexander is not enough for a Mayweather bout. Bring on Garcia vs Khan 2 @ 147.

    Going by this, Floyd loses to a lot of people.. Every guy who can throw a bunch of fast punches will beat Floyd.. First it was southpaws, then it was pressure fighters, then it was bigger guys, now it's just speed...

    Lol....

    Khan isn't Pacman..nobody is like Manny.

    Nonetheless, he's having a decent career and has some attributes that make him exciting..... ridiculous speed, a fighters heart and a vulnerable chin.

    I hope he is able to fight Manny and FMJ before they retire - hopefully after they've fought each other. By the he'll have probably beaten Brook and got a belt at 147.

    You're the one who is defining a boxer by his losses....
