Where does it rank all time?
Will it eclipse the JMM jumping 2 divisions to fight floyd who came in overweight.
Will it eclipse picking past prime cotto.
your thoughts?

It's a pretty hilarious cherry pick. Just a quick, easy money grab. I gave Floyd a lot of credit for taking the Canelo fight (didn't think he'd do it), but this one is really bad.
Mosley was coming off a loss and a Draw. Khan is coming off 2 wins. Sure he struggled in one, but he's coming off two wins regardless.
you can try to twist it to suite your agenda but fact remains floyd vs khan is the worst cherry pick known to man.
i agree with mosley being a cherry pick. But khan is 1000 times worst.

It isn't a "cherry pick" to face a crash test dummy, its a complete and total cop out.
Pac-Marquez trilogy was a cherryick gone wrong. Pac-Mosley was a blatant cherrypick, Pac-Marg was a cherrypick.

Khan actually has a good chance to win. Just hear me out.
If Khan eats only Indian food like curry, and doesn't shower for a couple of months, Mayweather would suffocate and die in the first round. Floyd technically could survive by running from Kahn and always being at least 10 to 15 feet away from him, but the smell would still get him, maybe in the 3rd or 4rth.
If Mayweather survives after a couple of rounds Khan can try to clinch him and try to stick his armpit in Floyd's face.
I think that's Khan's game-plan for the fight.
LOL. that might be a good idea. but thats kinda racist. smdh:sad2:

Till he gets beat by Floyd and trys to leave to fight Pac then hell be a beast again
He would be considered a brave foe. Why? Because he took on two of the best of his era and knowing one of them could reconstruct his face and leave him with his jaw off its hinges.
Floyd has had bigger cherrypicks: shambra, sosa, brscles, gatti, jmm were all bigger cherrypicks IMO
Khan's speed is the only thing that makes this competitive,,, Its an easy money fight for floyd so i dont blame him, but their is much more deserving candidates than khan at the moment
Khan spanked Chino? LOL
Do people even watch fights anymore, or just read headlines/message boards?
Thats the problem, some people "just read headlines/message boards..They are filled with haters but people who watched Khan vs Chino like I did saw Khan drop him early with mean body shot, outclass Marcos the whole fight, Chino rocks Khan late in the fight, Amir shakes it off, Khan haters swear Chino "almost knocked Khan out". That is the fight in a nutshell sir:poke:
There is no topping Pacquiao's cherry picking. After the Cotto fight, he went full retard with his cherry picking.
I just don't support Pacquiao's safety first style and his running away from a blood drained fighter for 12 rounds like a coward.
It's not a cherry pick. It's a good fight and Khan is going to trouble Floyd with his speed and height and he does have power.. My problem is Khan doesn't deserve it over Maidana but let's be real here; Floyd is going to embarrass Maidana and people will complain that Marcos wasn't on Floyd's level anyway. I strongly feel Khan has a style to trouble Floyd and I actually predicted Khan to beat Floyd prior to being robbed against Peterson!!
And don't forget Khan spanked Maidana already as he was being groomed as an opponent for Floyd so at least right now it's certainly not the "biggest cherrypick" even if you do consider it a cherrypick it's not close to say Pac/Rios..More like Floyd/Hatton and Showtime will love this fight because Khan will bring thousands of screaming Brits and it will be a big fight at least for Khan..

if the fight is in the UK it'd be slightly more credible. Greats have to fight opponents in there backyard or at least fight in neutral territory. Fighting in your home turf everytime is meh. Calazaghe went overseas to fight HOF comp and that's why he's greater than PBF
Yes i agree, you have to dare to be great and Floyd needs to tick off more boxes in his to do list.
Floyd mustnt be scared to fight khan in the uk, its not as if khan is as good as Randolph Turpin or even Henry Cooper was to Ali.
FLoyd fans and floyd himself hope his legacy will grow once he retires, but in actual fact people have ammunition to bring FLoyd down to his knees.
Im not sure one minutes its Maidana, next minute its khan.
Heres hoping its khan, at Wembley would be so nice.
