    Opponents that murk Khan

    Floyd Mayweather- To think Khan could withstand the precision and reflects of Mayweather is thinking in high hopes. The speed would clearly be too much for Khan and he'd be sleeping by round 7. Despite Mayweather losing power in recent years, Khan's chin would doubtfully hold up better than when Mayweather fought his past countryman star, Ricky Hatton. Only chance he got would be to KO him in the early rounds, which to me is unlikely. On top of that he doesn't shoot to the body often enough. Floyd would frustrate the much less experienced opponent who's faced few speed/slick based fighters.

    Manny Pacquiao- first of all it's not even plausible considering they fight within the same camp and style wise Manny is much too much of a force for the likes of Khan or any fighter without a strong chin.

    Andre Berto- Not the slickest of fighters but like Khan carries significant power and superior speed. This could be a war but Khan would unlikely see the last bell with the much inferior chin.

      Agree with all except berto. AB sucks. Khan has great skills and can actually BOX. Berto does the same thing in every fight, I think maidana is a better fighter than AB, and wouldnt be surprised if marcos moved up and knocked berto out cold.

        It's REFLEX not REFLECT lol. Secondly there is no shame what so ever in losing to two of the best fighters alive today in manny pacquiao and floyd mayweather. Khan isn't even close to his prime he's only 24, imagine him around 28-30. I aint to keen on khan fighting mayweather in 12 months time. BUT mayweather won't be around for too long, so it's worth a gamble, it's a win-win situation. If he loses he lost to a future ATG, if he wins he would most likely become a future ATG.
