    khan does not have the boxing brain or the ability to stay focused for 12 rounds in order to beat floyd. At ww i suspect floyd will be around the same weight come fight night and will be able to bully khan at times. Also I think Floyd as proved he is one of the best inside fighters when it is necessary and the inside is khans Achilles heal..

    The problem with Khan is, he fights in straight lines. In, Out, In, Out, over and over again. I don't think he can pivot effectively, so if Floyd pivots from Khans first punch of his flurry, he puts him off balance and counter punches the **** out of him IMO.

    Mayweather would probably put his hands up to block most shots while doing work on the inside. Probably stop him late too.

    The problem is that Khan can't fight on the inside or on the backfoot at all. As soon as Floyd starts getting inside and walking Khan down, forcing him backwards with his superior strength, the fight's as good as over.

    I'm a fan of both guys, and it's a fight I want to see in the future, but right now Khan stands next to no chance.

    I think a close to prime Mayweather will struggle maybe for a round or two but Khan seems to slow down after 3 or 4 rounds. Then Floyd will walk him down and beat the **** out of him. Khan will never get too fight an over the hill Floyd as he'll retire before that happens
