Does Khan REALLY deserve a Floyd fight? Or...

[KnockUTheFukOut]

He haven't done anything nor has he fought at Welterweight Yet...SO...NO! He don't "DESERVE" ANYTHING, Mayweather can go fight in the UK and draw a HUGE CROWD WITHOUT Khan

[Jim Tom]

Agree. People just don't understand this business. Khan makes probably 2-3 mil right now, with floyd in England he gets 4-5 times that.

No he makes $1.2m

[TyrantT316]

He's doing that though? he's fighting Peterson and says there will be a couple more fights before the Mayweather clash.

I think he has the speed to beat him now, but that's just my opinion (and Roach's )

That's the problem. People think you need "the speed" or "the power" or "the aggression" or "the chin" or "the jab" to beat Floyd.

Having fast hands doesn't beat Floyd. Floyd doesn't "try" to be faster than anyone. He focuses on being smart, relaxed, comfortable with the right timing and distance to get those 40-50% connect percentages. You need more than a physical attribute or two.

[KillerRightHook]

Or is his relationship with Roach and his talk what's making him into this unbeatable talent that Floyd has been "ducking"?

I think it is a bit of both, Khan is a very good boxer who could give Floyd some problems, but then again Khan hasn't anything in his armour that Mayweather hasn't seen before.

Also like Ortiz, he is still very young, so even if he loses, he can continue. But I believe he is trying to publicize himself to the public by calling out Mayweather and get a payday.

[Chopper417]

There isn't one doubt in my mind that Mayweather stops Khan. Khan better get 2-3 fights at WW before even thinking about Mayweather. I think Khan needs to fight both Ortiz and Berto before he gets a shot at Mayweather.

[Pullcounter]

the wifebeaters are scared of what they don't understand... they don't understand how khan can get KOed by presscott, but not get KOed by maidana

[MJ223]

I think from a business standpoint yes. He is the unified champ at 140 and when you look at other possible options there just isn't any. Floyd is at a point in his career where he will get ripped no matter who he chooses but if you look at the landscape it doesn't look promising.

Timothy Bradley- rumored to be signing with Top Rank. Wont happen

Andre Berto- Beat Zaveck but lost to the guy May just beat and even though he is champ again I can hear the HBO crew ripping him for picking Berto

Senchenko- Probably would do less then a mill and once again they will look at it like hes picking on the guy even though he is a champ

No need to list the contenders because it cant and wont happen since Floyd is held to a different standard they would dog him plus there IMO is nobody worth mentioning. Really would you pay $60-70 for Mayweather vs Maidana? Top Rank was left out as well so no Cotto or Margarito match ups are happening.

[Froghead99]

Question is outside of Pac, who is a better opponent for Floyd?

Did Ortiz, a loser who had one good win over Berto 'deserve' Floyd? Of course not.

You dumb *****s need to stop defending Floyd just because you are black and uneducated. Try using your brain.

[Fay]

He needs to fight Berto Or Ortiz first

He could draw a decent crowd. Not a huge crowd. Him vs Khan would draw 90,000 to Wembley though.
