    Khan should have been counted out vs Willie Limond if it wasn't for that shockingly blatant slow counting ref. People forget about that fight.

    Floyd would still be a good fighter without his speed. He has great Ring IQ, defense, a great jab to the body, and some of the best timing in the sport.

    I COULD see that with Pacquiao though. He's always relied heavily on his athleticism to cover up his flaws (drops his hands when he punches, lunges, has poor balance).

    Pacquiao's tendency to lunge is what caused him to get knocked out cold by Marquez.

    I picked khan because there isn't any possibility for trip G to kill him, which is what would happen.

    khan is the biggest threat from 40-54, pac would be the cherry pick for Floyd right now. all you Floyd haters are preying Floyd doesn't cherry pick his next opponent because the cherry pick would be pac and once Floyd whoops his ass what are all the haters going to say ???

    that was team serg talking nonsense. you really think they would go into negotiations agreeing to 80/20 ? you're a moron if you think that.

    Mara never in his career deserved 20%, more like 2-5% max

    1. peterson - only narrow-minded kids would even bring something like this up. Why the heck would you bring up a loss againist any fighter, if the loss came from a guy with steriods?

    2. Danny garcia - he out-boxed danny. Floyd holds no power. I think he's going to avenge his loss to danny garcia, if he doesn't get pacquio or mayweather.

    robbed against peterson, you know that

    the other 2 as showtime pointed out were flukes because of stupid ****y mistakes. if they werent flukey, showtime as well as the world wouldnt be kissing his ass like they are. While no one mentions a damn word about fanny garcia anymore...hes turned into a undercard fighter! :lol:

    That is an unfair comparison, because I hate Wladimir and Khan is British:yep

    Too bad he hasn't avenged any of his professional defeats. For all the talk of fighting Floyd, why doesn't Khan rematch Garcia?

    Khan at this stage is a waste of time for Floyd, it's gotta be Pacman or nothing. I don't want to see Floyd fight another fringe top 5 guy.

    You and I have TOTALLY different definitions of "out boxing" someone. In m definition if you out-box someone it doesn't end with you losing in a tko after being knocked down 3 times. But hey, different strokes for different buckaroos I guess...
