    khan is no match for floyd.. he doesnt have the power or the skill. floyd will do to pacman and khan what he did to mosley; dismantle them.

      I don't see this being any better of a fight in 6 months than it is now. Floyd would beat Amir up.
      that's what I thought when I first read the title but Floyd is starting to get long in the tooth for his style of fighting. Eventually he's going to stop being able to pull the trigger when he sees openings and Amir may just be fast enough to do it.

      Of course it's all dependent on Floyd right?

        its not so much as power and skill. its ring intelligence. The only to beat floyd is to outsmart him and so far all of his opponents could not do that. people always rag on his choice of opponents but it doesnt negate the fact that all his opponents couldnt figure out how to beat him. People need to ask themselves these questions when judging how good floyd actually is. How come Mosely couldnt do to Mayweather what he did to Margarito. They say Mosely got old but he knocked out Margarito just a year before that. Its floyd's skill that won him that fight. If Mosely fought any other welterweight that night he would have won in my opinion. When it comes to Floyd he has that gift to find mistakes in fighters fighting and captializes on it. Thats god given talent. I just wish he would have more confidence in his own skills and fights Pacquiao.

          Khan has a very good jab and is arguably as fast if not faster then Floyd these days due to Floyd getting older and not fighting so much.

          Still Khan probably gets knocked out or stopped unless his chin has improved dramatically.. Maidana may have power but does he have the skills to hit Khan flush? Mayweather on the other hand has ******ly good accuracy and decent pop

              well khan doesnt have the ring intelligence either to make the fight competitive. it wasnt long ago that khan used to fight on his front foot and look for exchanges.

              dont get it twisted, mosley wouldve been beaten by a lot of welterweights that night as well. hes got serious stamina problems especially after he fires that first load. when hes tired, whatever technique and tact he has goes to sht so he ends up mindlessly chasing and loading up.

                Did you read the article?

                The plan is to face Maidana, THEN the winner of Bradley-Devon and THEN Floyd in the fall, meaning he will have just about every belt in that case.

                  please tell me this is a joke. if Floyd fights Khan or anybody besides Pacquiao, hel prove everybody right and show that he is in fact a big Pu$$y.

                  ima huge Floyd fan and pray this is not true.

                  is like they dont get it, the only fight the world wants to see floyd in is the one with Manny on the other side of the ring.

                  what if Margarito shocks the world and beats pacquiao, what then..will that shut down the pac-floyd fight forever ? those 2 guys need to fight right now, the time is perfect.

                  Amir Khan should focus on fighters in his own division that could give him problems, ive never seen a boxer hyped up so much after his "biggest" win came against Malignaggi. theyre calling him the next great thing cuz he beat Paulie, is that even legal ?

                    Mosey wouldve not beaten Andre Berto that night, or the night he fought Mora. Shane has looked like **** 2 fights in a row, his stamina is horrible, maybe is age, maybe ****m Richardson isnt that good of a trainer, but ive never seen Shane that tired ever in his career, and now he has 2 fights in a row where he cant even breathe at the end.

                    plus Shane was coming off a training camp that was meant for Berto and had to start a whole new camp to train for Floyd, i know some boxers who come up with ****ty excuses as to why they lost, but that one is actually legit.
