Khan shouldn't be mentioned alongside Mayweather or Pacquiao. Both of them would school Khan.

Is Khan a Tougher fight for Mayweather than Pacquiao?

Defense, not equal. I think Pacquiao uses his feet quite well to avoid punches.
Biggest one is STAMINA. Khan is a known frontrunner. Pacquiao won't be throwing arm punches at you, even by the 11th round. That alone means Mayweather would have to be FAR more cautious against Pacquiao.
Still see both getting beat widely by Mayweather. Khan possibly stopped.

Does Amir Khan actually pose a more difficult style match up for Mayweather than Manny Pacquiao does?
Khan has a better jab than Pacquiao, he's taller, rangier (4 inches more reach than Pacquiao), less powerful, about equal footwork, equal defense, equal speed. But Pacquiao seems to have that phantom power which could be the deciding factor.
Tactically, they're both trained by Roach so the game plan would probably be similar. Most of Roach's fighters seem to fight in a very similar way, sort of like a stick and move, ambush style. So, is Khan a tougher fight for Mayweather, or is Pacquiao?

Mosley started that phantom stuff I guess. Pacquiao is faster and stronger than Khan with better stamina and better technique.Pacquiao hits harder,throws more punches,and takes a punch much better than Khan. Pacquiao is the bigger threat by far.

Khan at least has size, speed, a pretty good jab and because of that alone I see him giving Floyd a tougher fight, in the end though Floyd dominates these two.

Khan doesnt have a good jab tho. He just flinches it out with no power at all.
On top of that, he is an idiot.
