khans helping pacquioa to duck mayweather

It didn't take this past weekend for be to think that. However I think it is too soon for Khan to fight Mayweather.

It is. Khan needs to get at least one good fight in at 147 before the Mayweather fight. Otherwise Floyd will make easy work of Khan.

Khan isn't too bright though if he was smart he would tell Arum and the boys over at GB to let him unify against Bradley. Don't let Pac use you to duck Mayweather, or all you will get is a loss. Khan is still young and has the luxury of waiting for Floyd to get a little more rusty before he tries his luck.

Khan is definitely a bigger threat than Pac, and I don't think Khan is much of a threat at all, so that tells you what chance Manny has. I have been saying this for years, Floyd is ALL wrong for Manny and Manny is ALL right for Floyd. Top Rank/Arum will never let Pac in the ring with Floyd, because than Pac is done...as he almost was Sat, with that blatant robbery. Pac has been and always will be a sucker for technical counterpunching. He also has problems with speed, if the person is almost as quick as he is. His defense is still **** and he cannot cut the ring off. Floyd will beat Manny as easy as he did Shane, period. Khan because of his range and height and speed would be a decent challenge for Floyd, would be nice to watch. Only thing is that Khan's chin is terrible and he lunges so much when he punches, he would eat counterhooks, checkhooks, and lead or counter rights all night. Floyd by late TKO or UD over Khan.

I can't lie I hope this fight happens,I really believe in light of this past weekend Khan is more a danger to May then Pac...

I dont know bro, you could be right, but Khan is not ready for May yet.

Khan has skills, but matching skills with Mayweather is a huge ask.

Manny has intangibles, the guy is one tough son-of-a-b1tch, he is lightning fast, and he is a southpaw..... so I dunno who would fare better.

Pac/Khan could be a great fight.

Boxingtech couldn't have said it any better. Roach wants to feed Khan to the wolves especially after how PAC looked in his loss against JMM.

Khan might need a few(one or two)fights at WW before he is ready for May tbh..But I see Khan's height and speed giving May more trouble then Pac boxing stance and fast hands..But Khan and Bradley should mix it up,then win or lose Khan can fight Ortiz Berto winner or Brook and get use to WW...

Pac has been looking like a different fighter for sometime now,I would say since the Marga's fight..I believe he has become to civilized,and tbh I questioned his hunger(something I never questioned before)Khan is hungry and young,he would put the better fight up at this point...

Floyd beats everyone below 147 trying to come up to welter. his challenge would be Martinez @ 154 which i still think he would look good, but theres always that chance Martinez can land a goodnight shot. Khan needs to fight Bradley, Guerrero, or Ortiz before he gets a shot at Floyd. Guerrero would be a great welter, but he would also need to take a fight before getting a shot at Floyd. right now, it should be Manny vs Floyd. no excuses. dragging it out for another year will only make things worse. Floyd will look dominate against anyone stepping up to welter, and Manny will struggle to beat Marquez in mexico.

oh please fellahs...please,
i cant stand khan i admit but, he has matured well as a fighter.
however, he still has to beat english fighters first.
kell brook,kev mitchell etc..
a rematch with maidana or possibly a match with ortiz or berto.
any of these five could easily beat khan.
it is my view as an englishman that the "public" as khan puts it are not demanding a fight with floyd....no.....we(the public) are laughing at the suggestion that this little **** could even be in the same ring as fmj let alone give him his first loss.
****.
he has to earn the chance first, by elevating to the elite level or atleast show that he is not in this sport for the money.
no good trying to run before you can walk.
he said(with freddies hand up his arse) pacman would lose to fmj.
what chance does he think he has?
****.
prescott just got beaten(again) this time kod and made khan look a ****.
he has lost four of the last eight since knockin khan the **** out in 54seconds.
the **** has to beat peterson first, how must all this sound to peterson?
its insulting to say the least that khan is actually lookin past him like he is nothing.
i really hope peterson batters khan like a *****.
i would laugh my **** off.
no show with fmj, its a rediculous prospect for the next twelve months.
roach will need a better tool than this to even provide fmj with a fight let alone a win against him.
