    Floyd is also 10 year's older than khan, khan's been calling him out for the past few years while floyd was in his late 30's now 40's. I would have loved to have seen the fight, but to say this is a duck is riddicouls. 40 year old floyd schools khan, prime floyd shatters his chin.

    So again you agree with me while hurling insults? Classy.

    Bambi on ice, yes. What other analogy would you like me to use? I also said "Khan did well to survive Maidana" - isn't that a pat on the back? I like Khan but I'm realistic about his ability and his obvious flaws.

    My original point, before you spat your dummy out, was that Floyd is capable of stopping Khan. You seemed to take that personally and tried to claim Khan has a good chin. I mean, how can you say that with a straight face?

    khans chin is exaggerated...hes a tough man. No quit in him. Imo Floyd could've looked terrible against khan down to styles

    Floyd never ages because he don't get hit a lot.. Ring years he's 26 and everyone else who gets hit and be in wars are at least +5 of their actual age.. That's what I hear anyway...:lol:

    Very good points in the OP. Would've be a no-win situation for Floyd, because he would be expected to win impressively against the inferior Khan - but Khan's speed, length, and activity would make it hard for a passive boxer like Floyd to put rounds in the bank. And as fragile as Khan seems at times, Floyd would not want to enter a fight that he may need to look for a knockout in.

    Of course, Floyd is the better fighter - but this is the whole styles make fights paradigm - and Khan would've given him more issues than Floyd's status would suggest.

    There are a few of instances right off the top of my head where someone clearly not on a ATG's level beat them.

    Taylor over Hopkins.
    Randall over JCC (should have been twice.)
    Moorer over Holyfield
    Barkley over Hearns Twice.

    None of this is to say I think Khan beats Floid, it's just to point out ATG's lose to lesser fighters at some point.

    The only people who think that Khan can fight are Khan fans.

    Khan has never beaten an elite fighter and he never will. He's not built like that. He can't fight inside and depends entirely on his speed and grabbing fighters. He should be the one to fight McGregor.

    The point being once Judah was beaten a few times he was seen as very good fighter but with clear limitations. Amir Khan somehow continues to be talked about as if he is elite when his done nothing in his career to suggest that is the case at all.
