That's the reality of what happened. Instead of offering excuses why not just admit the truth? A boxing version of Khan was a much more difficult proposition for Floyd than Maidana. And Khan already beat Maidana.
What would you guys have said, for example, if Floyd had a poll between Bradley and let's say Alexander. Bradley won the poll but Floyd picked Alexander instead. I'm sure the excuses would still be there, it seems you guys would try to justify anything Floyd does regardless, which is understandable as you're his fans and that's what fans do.
The guy can do no wrong in your eyes, but I'm just stating the facts without those rose-colored spectacles that fans have -- Floyd avoided Khan and fought someone Khan already beat even though Khan won his official poll to fight him. I'd say exactly the same thing regardless of which two fighters were in the poll, especially if one of the fighters had previously beaten the other (such as in the Bradley-Alexander example).
