KHan stylistically bests floyd

Ricky Hatton in his post match interview with Merchant after the Mayweather fight:Walk him down, but what does he do when he gets there? Floyd isn't an inside fighter, Lamont Peterson is, that's his game. He wouldn't be able to walk him down anyway, not without losing a UD like Peterson did (despite what the judges said).
Freddie Roach: "Both my fighters can beat Mayweather"

Where did he say FMJ is an inside fighter? he didn't and he isn't.
99% of the time in an inside situation Floyd will defend/shield or hang on to the ref comes to split the fighters.
Andre Ward is an attacking inside fighter, Ricky Hatton is an inside fighter, Lamont Peterson is an inside fighter, these guys work to get on the inside, it's their raison d'etre in the ring. Floyd Mayweather is not that fighter and Amir Khan would have nothing to fear from him in that respect.
Flomos (and this thread is ridden with them
) will tell themselves anything to convince themselves, but as I said earlier in the thread the bottom line is Khan is faster than Mayweather, he does not have to fear Mayweather's one punch power, he is more mobile than Mayweather and does not have to worry about any inside game. All Mayweather has got on him is tighter D and the ability to fight on the backfoot - which while important is not paramount when his opponent has superior handspeed.
Stylistically it's a great fight for Khan and both Amir and Roach know it, that's why he's pushing so hard for it and arguing triangle theories using ****ers and inside fighters aren't going to change that.Last edited by Weebler I; 03-08-2012, 03:18 PM.Comment

Hatton CLEARLY said that he was better on the inside than he thought.Last edited by Jedi Vader; 03-08-2012, 03:31 PM.Comment
