Floyd Mayweather vs. Amir Khan speculation & discussion

Khan said himself that his key to beating Floyd is handspeed, hitting Floyd with shots he can't see.

That enough should say why he won't win.

 

khan is a glorified gatekeeper

 

Someone would have to knock Khan out BEFORE the fight. And then throw the unconscious body REAL HARD at Floyd.

:good

 

What the hell is speed when you can time him?
and that weak ass chin isn't helping too.

 

If Matthysse looks impressive against Garcia (or vice versa) , it'll be pretty easy to sell that fight against Mayweather to the masses. Same situation if Khan KOs Alexander.

 

Most exciting fighter in boxing right now.

Khan has never been in a bad fight.

 

Yeah, no one has yet found a way to time Khan as he is so fast and unhittable....

 

even Amir Khan doesn't believe Amir Khan is a threat to Floyd

 

Khan has blistering speed for sure but his understanding of space and distance isn't the best. Floyd will time him all night long. Different class to khan. I like khan for his willingness to fight anybody and he's always in exciting fights, could even make this one interesting early on but once floyd settles khan will be given a boxing lesson. Late stoppage for floyd or wide ud

 

I doubt that unfortunately, the guy is as delusional as it comes.

 

He might look good for round 1 untill floyd starts landing and getting the measure of him.. Khans very telegraphed, he hits you, moves, then sort of stands all tensed looking for another attack.. He is quick but hes too predictable. Hes not smart enough to do ****..

 

Khan's body will perform better at 147. He is outgrowing 140 and the move to WW is long overdue imo. He will have more power and if trained correctly, he should be able to keep almost all of his speed and explosiveness. There has been no one with Khan's speed that has fought Mayweather in a long time. The last person would probably have been Judah, but Judah's style was totally different to Khan's. I think Khan would give Mayweather a good fight. It would probably go to Mayweather on decision, but nothing is ever set in stone.

 

So a pubescent midget with moderate handspeed/power,horrific stamina, average skill set and lead feet is the only challenge? is it because Canelo has such a good resume and isn't coming off a loss to Trout?

get real, this fight is a joke, a complete mismatch.

 

My thoughts exactly. And he gives no shortage of oppurtunities to hit it especially when he gives up his height
