I said that for the last couple of years that Khan could beat Mayweather, he had the style, skills and attributes to do it but lacked the experience.
I predicted than by 2012 the balance of power would have shifted towards Khan and if he were to fight Mayweather then he would be favourite in my book to win the fight.
Khan succeeded last night where Mayweather failed by stopping Judah and was far more dominant that Mayweather.
Khan has the physical attributes to be Mayweather, height, speed, work rate and athleticism advantages. There reach is about equal but Khan again showed further improvements in footwork last night and Mayweather has been looking more static as the years continue.
Khan has one of the best jabs in boxing, fast, strong, accurate, the jab is a punch that Floyd struggles with and finds hard to counter.
Khan is also hard to hit, and is improving his defence all the time, Mayweather, will find it difficult hitting Khan, with his high guard and quick jabs.
If this fight happens next year, I will be betting on Khan.
Floyd will be on the downward spiral and Khan will be in his prime.
Both fighters will try and fight in the centre and Khan will have the edge here IMO
Don't think it will be a one side affair, Floyd will cause Amir problems but Khan to come away with UD by about 2-3 rounds.
