That's not how it works and you know it. Garcia would just be another come forward eat right hands all night type of fight. Easy work for Floyd. Khan on the other hand has range, speed, and ring movement that would trouble Floyd more than Garcia or Cotto ever could. Khan could also make Floyd come to HIM which is not how Floyd prefers to fight.
Cotto, who already proved he could have success with Mayweather in spurts (winning four rounds, bloodying his nose, out-jabbing him for stretches, actually doing effective body work after pushing Mayweather into the ropes - which Oscar, Canelo, and Ortiz all tried and failed to do) - and is now physically stronger at 160lbs and reinvigorated with Roach in his corner and back to his aggressive 140lb style - will have less success, "by a country mile", than Khan who is only speculated to potentially have success on the basis of having fast hands, which is somehow a magical talisman guaranteed to reduce Mayweather to ash? :nut
If you can't see it im afraid I dont know what to say. Khan has ALOT more going for him than fast hands. Don't let your hate for Khan stop you from decoding the truth! A lot of highly respected analysts believe Khan has a great chance of beating Mayweather, noone gives the guy that got shutout by Austin Trout a chance in hell. This talk of a reinvigorated Cotto is a bit much, all he's done is beaten a cripple and Delvin Rodriguez. I had him winning 2 rounds against Floyd, bloodying his nose means nothing. The fact that Maidana had more success than Cotto says it all
Maidana didn't have more success. I had Mayweather vs. Maidana I 116-112 for Mayweather - same exact margin as Cotto. Unlike Maidana, whose success came from awkward attacking angles and swarming physicality, Cotto was able to actually outbox Mayweather in stretches (who else that he's fought in ages can say that?). What else does Khan have? That he can box pretty well on the outside? Yeah, against limited opposition made to order. Khan has improved himself in recent years but if you're going to downplay Cotto's reinvention under Roach then we can do the same for Khan. What has all his "composure" and increased ring intelligence done for him? Beating the shot-to-bits Collazo (who spent the last few years after the Berto robbery struggling with and sometimes losing to C-level guys? And knocking out the retired Ortiz, which meant nothing?) and borderline irrelevant Alexander?
Going by your logic ! Marquez knocked Pacman out cold and Mayweather schooled Marquez ? So Pacquiao has no chance ? For the record if the Pacquiao v Mayweather fight happens I think Mayweather wins pretty easy
I'm not sure Cotto beats Alexander let alone Floyd. Stylistically Khan is just a much harder proposition. Floyd won't be able to stay on the backfoot potshotting, Khan will force him to come forward and take him out of his comfort zone. I think most people felt Maidana won more rounds than Cotto. Some people were trying to argue for a draw or even a Maidana win.
