    Will Floyd duck Amir Khan like he ducked Pacquiao, Tszyu, Cotto etc?

    Do you think Floyd Mayweather will duck Amir Khan in the next couple of years, or be willing to fight him?

    Will he make up some excuse like "Khan is on PEDS"?

      Floyd needs to fight some skilled opponents in their primes (like Khan and Pacquiao) to establish a legacy.

          Any source on him ducking Tszyu?

          Pacquiao is highly debatable, and the argument could be made that pac is the one ducking.

          Amir Khan? Are you delusional?

          Why do Floyd need to fight Pac or Khan to establish a legacy? Isn't it ok to just beat solid competition for years like the Klitschkos?

            Floyd would eat Khan up all day long and win by wide UD. Why would he duck him?

            I would like to see Floyd fight Khan & Ortiz and clear up some of the young guys. Ortiz is more dangerous to Floyd then Khan is.

              I'm convinced Floyd will fight Khan. There's a lot of money to be made from it, and IMHO, not that much risk to Floyd. I know people think Khan could cause Floyd problems stylistically but I think to beat Floyd, you've really got to have a great boxing IQ, and Khan still has Freddie do all of his thinking for him. And that won't be enough. Khan only beats Floyd if Floyd slips big time. A close to prime Floyd is too good for Amir.

                Ortiz has the brawling style that Floyd prefers in his opponents.

                Ortiz doesn't have the speed and technique of Pacquiao and Khan, or of prime Tszyu and Casamayor.

                  floyd does not need khan in any way. it'd be a good paycheck to have the fight held in the UK though, so it might be a possible matchup if khan continues on winning.
