Khan-Mayweather is already set for 2011.

at all this talk about Mayweather vs Khan being a joke...


Khan is better opponent at this stage then

JMM was at 147
Baldomir was
Gatti was

and would probably wind putting up a better effort then a 40 year old Mosley.

I get a kick out of all this talk about how Khan is all of a sudden not good enough to even fight Mayweather from Mayweather fans, when it was alright for JMM to jump a few weightclasses to give it a go, when most people were going to comfortably pick Khan to beat JMM (including JMM's own people probably, which is why they didnt take the fight)

but all of a sudden, Khan just isnt good enough to get in the ring with Mayweather?

Khan is as good a fight as any not including Martinez/Pac IF hes able to keep winning impressively in his next 2 or so fights. Would be a nice fight if Mayweather isnt going to fight Martinez (ya right) or Pac (if anyone was holding their breath for this fight they would have been dead by now)

When was the last time Mayweather even fought a young fighter in his prime with the size, speed, and skills of Khan? This fight is fine and would be a nice changeup.

 

Dont think so, at all.

And regardless of the outcome, I am sick to death of this mentality of

'No no no, not that fight, Mayweather wins easily'

Ive never seen a fighter never have to fight anyone more then Mayweather because of what he COULD do. Didnt have to fight Margarito because he would school him. Didnt have to fight Cotto cuz hed school him. Hell, why even fight anymore, whats the point of actually getting into the ring, we all know whos going to win anyways right?

Thats a stupid way to approach the sport, IMO.

I want to know who, besides,
- Martinez
- Pac
- Bradley (should he beat Alexander)

that would be SO MUCH better then a Khan whos coming off a Maidana victory and maybe a fight or two more, hitting his stride and on the top of his game.

Its a refreshing fight with Mayweather in there with someone who has a mix of size, talent and actually in his prime, with a good coach behind him.

Not to mention, the actual style matchup here, in which if you actually analyse it, does not equal a 'Mayweather destruction'.

But, besides those three, what realistic opponent is THAT much better then Khan?

 

None of that really has much to do with what I am saying, at all. At all. Nobody ever denies Mayweathers skills, nobody. But I would bet whatever that Mayweather wouldnt stop Khan early (if Khan is able to get past Maidana) but thats simply a difference in opinion. OF COURSE Mayweather would be the fav.... again, so what? lol....

Again, you are basing this fights worthiness on that.... Mayweather would win. this fight is better then a few of the fights Mayweather has had.

One eather sees it or not I suppose, but eather way, Khan vs Mayweather aint the end of the world, it would be a nice fight to see and for Mayweather to take.


However you didnt answer my question. Besides Martinez/Pac and if Bradley beats Devon, who is so much better for Mayweather to fight then a big fight against Khan in the UK? Or is it better Mayweather just stays inactive and we can all just talk about who he COULD beat in fantasy matchups, as usual.

 

Fair enough. Those would be without a doubt, EPIC fights.

Those fights aint happening though (doubtful, would love to eat my crow on that).

So, would you rather just not see Mayweather fight at all, then to fight Khan at the end of 2011 should Khan still be on the rise? :huh

Hes going to have to fight sooner or later, and if its not against them, Khan is as good as anyone not named Pac or Martinez and that JR would realistically face (meaning they have a following of some sort). Thats the bottom line.
