With Pacquiao, let me just say this, based on his performance against Marquez, I can say my prediction on a Mayweather vs Pac fight leaned much more towards Floyd. But the more I think about where both guys are at today, truthfully, I still think it's a bit of a toss up. Sure, Floyd KO'd Ortiz (sucker punch yea, but Ortiz had it coming), but in retrospect we really didn't get a chance to see a different Mayweather than what we saw against Mosley. I still may lean towards Floyd, but I wouldn't bet the house on it.
As far as Khan, his style and size could present problems for Mayweather but I think he's too green. I would probably agree that he has a better chance than Pacquiao, but only because I don't give Pacquiao much of a chance. Especially if he has to take the tests.

Nobody is going to out-box Floyd. Khan ain't no Hearns. Khan's size is neglegable, 2 inches taller 1 inch shorter reach than Mayweather, its not like he would have Hearns-like advantages over Mayweather. On top of that, no way you can say he's more skilled than Mayweather.
Pac brings 2 particular traits that make him have more of a chance than Khan. His unorthodox style (stance, movement, angles) and willingness to take a hit to land one. They can overcome the skill disparity, may not be likely, but its more likely that his style can catch Mayweather by surprise than Khan can strait up outbox Floyd.

Idk if I agree or not. I say they both equal. Somebody with experience that moves with height and long arms that constantly jabs will outpoint him. In a bigger weight class
Floyd will beat Pac from creating space and he'll beat Khan by walking him down like he did Jab

Like I said, the hype that was Pac is now being exposed and the "NEW" guy is being hyped as the next best thing to beat Floyd. lol
Come on all, lets go ahead and say it now. Floyd is ducking Khan. Floyd would be KO'ed by Khan.. Pac and Floyd are trash, Khan destroys both Mayweather and Pac in one super duper windmill death punch (Joe Calzaghe style)...
Lets just say Mayweather has been ducking Khan since the 80's...
The Amer-a-Con-tards will unit! Pac is a dead exposed fish and Floyd needs to stop ducking the NEW hype that is known as the king khan! lol
Lets all jump on this boat now....
