What A level boxer has Khan outboxed? In fact, what b level boxer has Khan outboxed? I'll wait even tho I dont expect an answer. Anyone who thinks Khan is a great boxer is delusional. Anyone who thinks Khan would EVER beat Floyd is delusional. And I mean even right now if they fought Khan would lose.
I didn't see the fight, but looking at his record, he has a 5th round KO of a 33yr old Zab Judah

All over Khan being a hoe about not letting Floyd use his "trademarked" shoe?
If anything that would of made him money, Khan is an idiot at best.
Pacquiao did the same thing. Pac turds forgetting about that? :rofl:
Results of Pacquiao’s Twitter Poll:
Amir Khan 48%
Kell Brook 24%
Terrence Crawford 21%
Jeff Horn 7%
So not only did Pacquiao duck Khan but Brook and Crawford also. He then ducked a Horn rematch after he got beat.
:rofl:
Your joking right Khan by that time was a shell, Pac gave him mercy. That would of been an execution.
Khan was not a great boxer. Not great, special, or worldly. He was just another very talented fighter who knew how to use his handspeed to beat his opponents. He had a myriad of flaws.
Left his chin in the air
Could not fight moving backwards
poor upper body movement
always threw punches at the same speed
He only had fast hands. Which is more like shoe shining hand speed.
People always make a big fuss about the guys who Floyd fought and they had slow feet, but Khan didn't have better feet. His were clumsy and sloppy
It’s a good video for entertainment. Just the idea of Mayweather asking permission to use khans signature shoe is very entertaining. But you are right can’t believe everythingI still feel Khan v Mayweather would have been an ok fight to watch and probably better than the likes of when Mayweather fought Berto.
I struggle to trust these sources.Unless your there you take everything with a pinch of salt.As life has taught me I only fully trust God these days as no man is pure.
As for Khan .I think he is a decent boxer but Mayweather is another level and beats him comfortably late on. Potentially similar to the Ricky Hatton fight. Hatton gave Mayweather problems early on with his intensity but Mayweather adapted.Likewise Khans hand speed may have caused Floyd some problems but Floyd adapts and possibly knocks him out.

A lot of people are acting like the prospect of Floyd fighting Khan wasn't viewed as a cherrypick back then.
Here's one such thread from the poll era, with cries of it being "rigged" for a soft matchup.
This narrative came to life after Floyd schooled Manny, and it was as desperate a search for a boogeyman as I've ever witnessed.
Revisionist history is a funny thing.
Maidana made Khan do the funky chicken dance. Maidana hurt khan more than he ever hurt floyd in 2 fights.
Maidana was Khans last good win and that was back in 2010 at 140. Floyd fought mosley that year at 147.
Floyd TRIED to make a Khan fight for 5 years but Khan kept losing and had no strong wins that could help sell that fight.
Maidana wore pillows against Floyd, remember that also.

What A level boxers has Ortiz, Madonna, Berto, Guerrero, outboxed. Khan was no better or worse than those guys plus nobody is saying he would beat Floyd, but he is more of a risk than the guys who styles Floyd cherrypicked the most.
Lol another loser who was forever scarred by Mayweather’s excellence. The man has been retired for years yet every single solitary you losers come here with hopes to discredit him and his career. You idiots really do believe the dumb s**t that you type too. It’s beautiful. Lol at the edit. Had to get this bulls**t that means nothing to anybody but you, just tight huh? I love it.
Oh ok. He's retired until another no risk proposition comes in the mailbox.
Today it's a Japanese kickboxer, tomorrow it will be an Austrailian figure skater. I think he did a good enough job discrediting his own rep himself he didn't need me.
Floyd gets clowned and ridiculed now because he was more interested in duping the public than fighting the best guys at their best. It's not too many other guys they even do these types of threads for. I wonder why.
A lot of posters on both sides are kinda getting it right & wrong at the same time. So once again I need to call a point of order & get the facts straight & settled.
Con is best at his namesake over all else, therefore he at the time was considered a more worthy opponent than Maidana.(obviously because Con beat him & Chino hadn't done anything at ww.)
Fact- Con was also a much more lucrative opponent, while still meeting Floyds criteria most the time:ie in not having a chance of koing Floyd.
Fact- Con would've been schooled by Floyd easily,BUT at the time that wasn't a foregone conclusion & Maidana was expected to get beat easily at the time.
Stylistically he was the worst fight for floyd that’s why he never fought him. Mayweather fans just laugh it off when Khan is bought up, they’re never honest about it. Floyd wasn’t knocking him out and that was the only way to beat a prime Khan.
No need for a video. The initiated know why. Khan's feet were fast enough to keep up with Floyd's. Team Mayweather would never have allowed for an even playing field for an opponent when Floyd's primary advantage has always been his ability to fully control distance. Khan would have lost but he would have made Floyd look horrible and badly humiliated him in the process.
Manny has sick hand speed also and power in both hands. That would have been a good fight.
I still think Khan would beat Floyd. Floyds a lite fisted guy and wont match the speed.
Manny and Khan were with TR at the time. I dont think Bob wanted Manny to fight Khan back then. Because Manny was leaving TR. Bob wanted that title to go to a no name guy out the country so he set up the robbery so Crawford can get his title. Had Manny won any fight with TR he would have carried it with him and Bud until today would have no title at all. Because The Horne Robbery set up Bud for that title because it was left in the TR stable. Bob couldnt had made that happen with Khan. Wasnt a sure thing.
Floyd beat Poochiao
