As much as I criticize Khan and bashed the possibility of Khan beating Mayweather, I STILL would rather see Mayweather-Khan than Mayweather-Cotto 2.
At least it's something new.
I think a Cotto rematch is a better and more competitive fight, but I'd like to see the Khan fight to finally shut his side up. If no Pacquiao, neither are bad options.
Khan. Everyone knows the Cotto rematch is a complete farce. It's a ****ing joke, of the highest magnitude. It's the ultimate cherry pick at this juncture.
The Cotto fight is definitely the tougher fight imo. I'm a big Khan fan but he has no chance against Floyd. He fights in bursts and is open for the counter once he ends it, it has been proven if you are good at timing him you can catch him and end it. Floyd has enough power to make Khan regret it (ask Shane Mosley or anyone that has fought Pac/Floyd both).
THAT being said, 9/10 I'll pick the FRESH match up and this is one of those times. Khan is definitely an interesting style match up for Floyd because he is quicker than him and he's lengthy so he can use that quick jab with his range and i'd like to see how Floyd deals with it (not that he can't).
I just don't see Cotto beating Floyd, he beat a seriously washed up Martinez who imo had looked past it for a few years and people think hes the **** now. If Floyd fights Cotto...i'm sorry but I know *****s myself who wouldn't even stand for that.
Fight Pac in May and Khan later on in the year. He's holding up too many matchups at the moment by not sorting out the Pac fight.
Mayweather-Khan, for 3 reasons. Cotto fight was easy for Floyd and I don't see it changing much a second time around. Secondly, Floyd only has a few fights left and he already had a rematch, I'd rather see him face someone new. Then the most important reason is to shut the Khant fans up so they'll stop crying every day.
Now of those two options, I would prefer Khan as I have always wanted to see that fight (guilty pleasure fight of mine) and it is something different.
The first Cotto fight was alright but I don't see Cotto as being able to do a ton better. Would not be the worst or most unneeded rematch in history but that doesn't exactly mean it is awesome and is needed.
I'd be disappointed with anyone but Manny...but Khan is the best alternative in my opinion. We already saw Floyd/Cotto...why waste one of Floyd's last few fights on something we already saw? (I realize we just got another Maidana fight for no reason, so I don't have my hopes up)
Easily Khan, a Mayweather Khan is at the very least an interesting fight because of Khans handspeed and ability to fight from the outside. Much more appealing to the BOXING fan (non-Cottards and *****s) if May-Pac dont happen.
Neither!!!
He needs to get in the ring with MANNY already! It's long overdue!
I don't really care what you was talking about Man. That avatar is 1 of the best I'v ever seen. Forget boxing.
I would like to see him fight Manny P but if not Cotto would suffice. It really doesn't matter who he fights. He will beat Manny, Cotto, or Khan & the haters will do what they always do. Just say that his victory doesn't really count because he didn't fight the fighter at the right time & the exact way & exact spot in the ring that it should have been.
Amir Khan would be the least of the 3. Pac & Cotto are already hall of famers. Khan still hasn't proven that he is better than Lamont Peterson or Danny Garcia.
