    Khan doesn't move his head enough and is open to the over hand right. I actually think Floyd ko's him early with crisp timing

    Good points on the Floyd-Cotto dilemma. I'd still think that one was feasible, but I'm thinking if it was, or if it is (if Cotto wins this weekend), that they will jump on it soon. I have to believe it's the most lucrative fight for both, and assuming Cotto would lose to Floyd again, he'd still have the Canelo fight to fall back on.

    Thanks for watching.

    :good

    Ill be the lone guy to say this, but Brook vs Mayweather is a live fight in my eyes. It's fresh and Kell looked sensational in his last few fights (even though against questionable opponents).

    Kell vs. Mayweather is a bigger draw than Khan vs. Mayweather as well at this point.

    Captain Kirk had an iron chin unlike Khan. Khan's chin is complete glass but is sometimes offset by great conditioning, a la Kirkland. Does he deserve the fight? Absolutely not and if he gets it he won't have a clue as to what to do against Floyd. I agree Cotto is a better choice, however, if Floyd really wants to go for 50-0 he may prefer to fight Khan next and then finish with Cotto for the MW title (provided Cotto still holds it then). Those two seem the most realistic opponents considering those fights would generate very good money. If Cotto looks good against Geale as I expect he will, I would much rather see that fight. It would as least be competitive whereas Khan would not be.

    I'll rather see Mayweather fighting Marquez again , Keith Thurman or Bradley.
    Mayweather doesn't have many fights left to waste one on Khan.

    Why should he avoid Ward? Because Ward is a legit light heavyweight.

    Yep, pretty much. Nail on head. If we want to see GGG against top guys, going to have to be 168. Sad, but it is what it is and it wont change.

    I think Cotto will fight him next year if he beats Canelo (provided there is no need for a rematch)

    not looked at the WBC ratings...don't they have GGG anywhere ? They should make him the mandatory...and force Cotto.

    Only if Cotto beats Canelo convincingly which is a long shot, he'll believe in himself and may fight GGG.
