Would Mayweather have knocked Khan out?

[Merciless1]

I believe Floyd stops him between 6-8. I doubt Khan would come out as aggressive against Floyd than he did vs Garcia.

[Weebler I]

Being serious now, much of the fight was on the inside obviously Hatton was like a fish out of water as his idea of infighting is hugging with one arm and hitting with the other something that is not allowed.

It was the repeated splitting of the fighters by Cortez which cost Hatton as Ricky would take a big shot on the way back in. Without those he would never have even have been wobbled, never mind KO'd. Cortez's actions had a direct influence on the result, just he did v Ortiz. He's a discredited ref, his name is dirt now.

Also Khan's weak chin didn't lose him the fight his inability to adapt lost him the fight. The majority of fighters would get hurt if that left hook hit them however the majority of competent fighters would not stand and trade when their senses are dulled.

Khan's chin lost it, his legs were gone and he was (by his own admission) struggling badly for balance. Brave as he was to fight on he was done as soon as the first big punch landed, Roach said he was going to stop it sooner.

So Hatton lost because Cortez wouldn't let him grapple and hattons lack of defense was the reason he was getting caught with big shots?

Man dont even bother. Weebler lives in this fantasy world where ricky hatton is an elite fighter. He just can't accept the fact that God, muhammad, jehova, ra, buddha, yaweh or whatever god yheas an individual believes in made floyd better in every way than ricky.

If a fighter gets inside, why should he be pulled off and forced to work back inside upwards of 10 times during a round just because the ref is being partial to his opponent?

Let them fight like Smoger or any quality ref does...not Joke Cortez.

Mayweather might have won anyway, but fighters deserve a fair crack at it.

[hugh grant]

Why does Floyd expect preferential treatment?. Why cant Floyd try and fight and beat the hatton everyone else had to fight?

WHy cant he fight the hatton, kostya had to fight? WHy does Floyd want everything his onw way? Hes got home advantage, weight advantage, refs and judges on his side!
Elbows hatton all night long and holds hatton when he dont want hattons body shots.

[RubenSonny]

While Floyd has shaken fighters with better chins than Khan, Khan has stayed off the canvas against fighters who hit harder than Floyd. So it's not that simple. Just to argue the other way, since this thread has decided overwhelmingly that Khan will get knocked cold.

Who are these fighters exactly?

When Cortez let them work, Floyd was outfighting Hatton on the inside. Even forcing Hatton to step out of the clinches himself.

[GrandpaBernard]

and he wouldn't have without a corrupt home referee forcing Hatton onto the outside



b/s Khan was 2-0 up about to go 3-0 up when that shot landed, you don't outbox someone by eating everything they throw, Garcia's power combined with Khan's weak chin won the fight for DG

defense exists in boxing. Danny was protecting himself from the majority of what Amir threw. Amir on the other hand did a terrible job at protecting himself

[robear]

Lets say Maidana and Peterson. Both had Amir Khan, both couldnt finish him, both pretty good punchers. I'd say harder punchers than floyd, althought i'm not sure.
