    Which is why he will get TKO'd. Floyd will counter the hell out of him....ALL NIGHT until the fight is stopped.

    Theres nothing between the speed of Pac & Floyd, very minimal but the fighter with the most skill will win the fight & thats Mayweather.

    Kahn might be able to hang with Pac in 4 rd sparring matches but he dont understand boxing if he thinks Pac would beat Mayweather, FMJ would embarrass Kahn, even in sparring.

    People concentrate way too much on speed instead of seeing what makes Mayweather so special is his incredible anticipation of punches coming his way ! That can't be taught !!

    Pac's punches in bunch is great to watch and effective against b level fighters but he will get counter hard against someone who got good defense. Floyd would not let Pac tee off on him and would interupt Pac in mid of his combo. Pac might get laid out being overly aggressive.

    That's very possible. It wouldn't shock me if he toys with Pacman. But it's also possible that Pacman's speed might bother PBF. If Pacman fights smartly and is careful with his punch selection, you never know.

    he has fought no one like pacqiao and theway he throws his punches. Added to the fact how much he has improved in that area. Still, its too early -lets see if pac gets past cotto

    Yeah, I agree. You're right. I wouldn't be SHOCKED if Pac troubles him, just don't think it will happen.

    Strangely enough Khan is the exact fighter required to beat floyd.

    blazing speed
    Very good jab
    Accurate puncher
    High workrate
    Size
    Comparable footspeed to Floyd

    Not saying he will but the tools are there for a UD with the right strategy.

    Double triple jabs... in out ... fancy flurries..

    Pacman has a very legit chance of beating PBF but he starts the fight giving up quite a bit in reach against the most intuitive fighter in the business.

    He will have to absorb and accept, consistently 1 or 2 solid punches landing on him while he's coming in. If he can do that, then his combination punching could lead him to victory..

    Gotta admit, when I opened this thread, I thought Khan was referring to Pacquiao being able to defeat Mayweather on drugs.

    I sure would like to see Manny Pacquiao doing his post-fight interview with speed in his system.

    The thing that will help PBF beat Pac is Cotto. Once Cotto gets through with Pac if PBF still does fight him he will be damaged goods. BEcause cotto is gonna F*** him up.
