      Yup Khan is the future. The number one 140 pounder, and willing to crack crackweather.

      Anyone who brings up Prescott knows nothing of boxing, no credibility.

      Let's hope Floyd doesn't go to prison so khan gets to beat him.

        you're right. we get the feeling mayweather is like tyson without the
        power. ha ha ...

        now he has khan to deal with in addition to pacquiao.

        floyd gave him two conditions , blood test, fight vargas ... khan
        agreed. now mayweathers gone into hiding ...

          I'd say around 50% of posters on this forum are "in the closet" for the fighters on their avatar and sigs, based on the threads they make about them. "movie star good looks" lol.

          Personally, I don't think a british fighter can carry boxing because their fans are so obnoxious. Once you go to a fight with drunken, loud mouth british fans(Malignaggi/Khan) you will NEVER root for a british fighter again.

              Yea, it's funny how Floyd keeps ducking khan.

              Why did he say he'd fight khan, then back track after khan demolished Zab?

              Why did he say he'd fight him after khan defeated Vargas then change his mind after khan agreed?

              Crazy how his fans keep supporting this loud mouth lying ducker.

                I never used to like Khan. I always thought he was protected to the max and was overated...of course, that was long before he became on the best boxers in the present day.

                He's improved greatly since Prescott KO'd him and all those calling for a rematch...why? Everyone with a bit of common sense knowns Khan would outclass Breidis...and i like Prescott.

                I dont think he'll be the GOAT but i do think he has the makings to be one of the ATG. I really admire him. I wish i had his skills.

                EDIT - Only bad thing about him is his chin...talk about china chins. He also makes a lot of contradictions.

                  exactly. floyd seems to have a pattern . come back pretending to call out
                  pacquiao, fight some other guy who is usually a brawler for some $$$
                  then retire for 12 months again ...

                    I'm sure he will figure in the future of boxing, but he is by no means The One. I see him being the pick of the welterweight region for the foreseeable future after Mayweather and Pacquiao are gone, but I'd tip others to pip him for pound-for-pound glory.

                      no.

                      He certainly has the skills to be one of those fighters but i think his chin will let him down.

                      If his chin holds up against top competition at 147 then who knows.
