The 5th most viewed thread of all time on this forum is Floyd Mayweather vs. Amir Khan speculation & discussion with nearly 700,000 views which even surpasses the infamous TKO in 6 thread. Yet Floyd "Money" Mayweather still chose Maidana, A guy Khan beat. Maidana lost Floyd's own poll and would clearly draw less viewers. On paper was the easier style for Floyd. But Floyd still chose him and then STILL paid him off to wear foam gloves. This content is protected
People saying floyd would catch amir and stop him are laughable, guy couldn't bust a grape at those weight classes plus had really bad hand problems, didn't even like throwing the straight right at 100% because of it. Floyd would not have the power to get amirs respect, and amir had faster hands.
How many times do you have to be told Low IQ Glass Jawed Amir Khan would get knocked spark out by PBF? His Chin was complete China. One of the worst in the sport. Mayweather would do a demolition job on him.
Is Floyd allowed to use xylocaine or not? There is reason why Amir Khan could have become one of the greatest amateur boxers of all time. He had a very specific style and STYLES MAKE FIGHTS. Which is why everyone is getting their knickers in a twist over Usyk, although Fury will prove man meat and love handles beat quick feet.
People prefer to see stationary Berto, Guerrero, Ortiz and Maidana I guess. Pathetic. Fair play to Maidana did himself proud, Floyd underestimated his workrate and tenacity.
As if you needed hands of stone to drop one of the weakest chins in boxing history. That's laughable.
If Khan was as easy a fight as Floyd fans think then he would have fought. He would have loved to have anither hatton ko. Take in mind his trackrecord of ducking and fighting fighters at the perfect time with everything stacked jn his favour and it matches up well with that.
Floyd ducked many fights, but Khan isn't one of them. It isn't possible to duck someone as bad as Amir Khan when you're Floyd Mayweather. The fight would have quite clearly been a Mayweather ko. Khan was shite.
Thanks god this thread was created. That's exactly what we needed, because the subject has not been discussed enough. How much time until CJ brings margarito to the discussion? 3....2....1..... I have a deja vu.
Most people probably can't remember when I was my current self but with Khan not Fury. Oh how they can imagine. A time before 2015 oh how old we have become.
I am going to take a wild stab at this..but it goes something like this… Khan has some success early on. Khan gets greedy. Khan walks on to a shot. Khan gets KOd.
