It's widely acknowledged that Floyd avoided Khan repeatedly throughout his career in a strategic move to swerve a difficult style match up but if the two were to fight right now, has Khan descended too far past his prime to beat Floyd or has Floyd also deteriorated enough to still give Khan a decent chance of victory?
In both the Tenshin and McGregor fights, Floyd's foot and hand speed seemed slower. His legendary defense also appeared not to be quite as effective as once before. Khan's last fight was against a much tougher opponent, an actual pro boxer named Billy Dib, but he did get caught several times and left the ring with facial bruising after knocking out the former world champ in 4 typically high-octane rounds of entertaining action.
Does this version of Khan still beat Floyd?

No disrespect man but only inbreds seeking relevance in boxing would even think Khan had a chance against Mayweather. If you sneeze hard enough you get him out of there. Sex between cousins is illegal in most countries because it produces minds like this. Khan was in trouble against bums so what makes you think he would trouble Floyd? Where was the speed when Prescott send him to hell and back? Where was this so called speed when Peterson was busy timing him or Garcia knocked him out of there?
khan is a nightmare match-up for Floyd in his prime.
he would've done Floyd similar to how he did Judah. styles make fights. there's no punch in Mayweather's arsenal that would've knocked out Khan.

If Khan beat a better opponent than Chino beating Broner, He would've gotten that fight. But Chino deserved it, and I know Khan would've been hard to beat. But at the same time Floyd is not focused on winning. He elevates himself to a level to where he can dominate and humiliate most guys.
Thats the problem Khan has. Khan vs Floyd, straight up, causes all types of problems for Floyd.
But we see the problems Chino caused. And your like "If he can do all that, imagine what Pac is going to do" Then on fight night, Floyd had gotten fast as hell.
Like his hands, his body was waaay too light for Pac to keep up. Floyd went to another level and made Pac look short, slow, flatfooted, and we never seen him look that way.
Same way with Shane. Floyd went to another level, and gave him a very instinctive bruce lee type of look.
Shane would get out of position, and Floyd popped him fast as hell without missing a beat.
Why do you say does he still beat Mayweather?????? Khan never saw the day he could beat Mayweather. Mayweather never avoided Khan. Khan was never in line for a Mayweather fight with too many better fighters ahead of him. Khan has all those loses to guys like Prescott that he never even tried to avenge. Khan has never even tried to avenge a single one of his many loses mostly by KO. Let him avenge his loss to Danny Garcia and then talk about him fighting Mayweather or Pac. But everyone knows Danny would just KO Khan again as would Crawford. Khan is worse now but he never was all that good. Dibs was such a mismatch that it shouldn't even count as a real fight.

Go to sleep lil homie.
A prime version of khan would be a cherry pick for Floyd Mayweather jr.
Khans style is not that difficult to time. He was never a stylistic nightmare for anyone. That’s just another excuse to make Floyd Mayweather jr. look bad.
Floyd Mayweather jr. is a clown and he dresses like colonel Saunders but in the ring he’s a great fighter and there’s levels to boxing that most people on this website seem to not understand due to their self imposed hateful blindness.
Anyone who thinks any top 10 fighter at welterweight or top 5 at jr. welterweight swerved AK out of fear needs to seek medical attention immediately.
Khan was good but he was easily beatable by top guys. Actually khan is still pretty good but the blueprint is out so a lot of the lesser guys just walk thru his speed and try to bomb him out because what you guys here cannot understand for some reason is that timing beats speed all day long and twice on Sunday.
