Floyd Mayweather vs. Amir Khan speculation & discussion

:thumbsup

Well said Typhoon mate!!

Khan's shameful duck of Brook should automatically disqualify him.

I mean, we have a world champion in Kell Brook (who despises Khan) who publicly called Amir out (im not sure ive ever known a champion call out a mere contender in such a fashion), It would have been for a world title and a lot of money. And what does Khan do?....

Amir declines the world title shot and chooses to fight a a feather-fisted guy Manny massacred (check the scorecards for Pac-Algieri, they are the most one sided I have ever seen) for about 15% of the money Khan would have made fighting Brook!!! Despite this, Khan prattles on about fighting Mayweather like it's his birthright ffs!!

Khan is an utter disgrace and is the least deserving fighter for a shot at Floyd!!

 

How anyone can seriously suggest that a world champion Welterweight (Brook), is less deserving than the contender who ducked him (Khan) is quite frankly beyond comprehension!!

Garcia (you know, the guy who tko4 Khan) is clearly more deserving of a Mayweather fight than Amir ffs!!

 

Its JMM vs. Floyd once again. Only this time it will be worse for Khan.

 

Not true. Collazo is a powerful puncher who has KO'd many fighters at WW, and was coming off a 2nd-round KO against Ortiz. Many fans were predicting Collazo to KO Khan. But instead, Khan completely neutralized and nullified Collazo's power, like how Mayweather completely neutralized and nullified Pacquiao's power. And that's because Khan worked on range control under Virgil Hunter. As long as Khan maintains range control, power punchers shouldn't be a problem for him anymore.

 

Floyd throws one shot at a time. He's not knocking Khan out.

 

Khan would do a better job of avoiding the right hand, and is more likely to get his own offense going against Floyd though

 

Nope.

 

Khan's chin is so bad, that even Floyd will hurt him. Willie Limond hurt Khan who's a light punching lightweight, so imagine what Floyd would do. Night, night.

 

Dont you ever get bored of regurgitating the garbage?

Since De La Hoya we have heard how X,Y & Z all beat Mayweather for various reasons, and guess what? Hes still undefeated.

De La Hoya was to big, good jab - lost.
Canelo - young, stronger fitter faster - lost.
Pacquaio was going to use speed & and angles - lost.
Khan would be no different.

 

alexander the great

 

No he wouldn't he has already said he won't be fighting in Sept. And he may have the size, speed, etc., but he doesn't have the resume!

Three losses, NO REMATCHES??? WTF?

When the public asks for it, Floyd rematches people he BEAT.

 

Amir Khan's Chin is a VERY serious liability. They are matching him carefully for a reason.

 

No, yours is. These boxing fans (who evidently understand the sport) are referring to Khan at 147, at a point where Virgil's transitional training was taking effect. You can log out now.

 

Mayweather may not be a huge puncher, but he has respectable power. If he didn't then all of his opponents, Pacquiao included, would just try to walk through him.

Floyd may or may not have the natural power to KO Khan if Khan sees the punch coming, but Mayweather has the ability to hit Khan with punchers that Khan won't see coming. Add in the troubles Khan has had with his chin and the fact that whilst he is a talented fighter, his ring IQ is quite low and I can see Floyd either knocking him out or hurting Khan badly at various points late on in the fight and riding to a decision victory after a troubling start.

 

Copy/Paste the thread title in Google for links. :smoke

So Pacquiao's team claims they need time to heal only to see Arum pop out and say they plan to make Pacquiao vs Crawford. And now Khan says he can't fight in September(surely because of Ramadan). Time to find someone else to claim Mayweather is ducking, who is it going to be?. I suspect Middleweights and Light Heavyweights to be picked.
