    I think you might be right TS. And that isn't to say I wouldn't pick Mayweather. Khan is very good at controlling the distance and boxing, throws a lot of punches, and has the footwork to give Floyd some problems.

        Ridiculous post how can you say Khan is not worthy of a fight with any boxer who has proven himself in the ring? How do you think fighters prove them self in the first place? By fighting other proven fighters its common sense....NO?

        What has Ortiz done better than Khan to deserve a shot? Quitting against Maidana drawing with Peterson? Lol

            JMM is a small, slow, lightweight. Skill wise hes better than Khan, but you arent really gonna outskill Mayweather especially with so many physical disadvantages.

                What "skillset" are we talking about? Amir Khan lunging in and looking like an amateur while throwing 1-2's?

                I think Khan does have speed and youth to trouble Floyd in the early rounds though, but I don't think Floyd would be to concerned about Khan's "skills".

                      It was Marquez that called out Floyd from 2 years of retirement. Many thought it was a foolish thing for Floyd to fight the #2 pfp guy that arguably beat Pac a year earlier. Selective memory? Cherry pick? lol
