    I see a load of people say that because Khan has a bad chin, that Mayweather would KO him instantly. Come on now. Mayweather isn't a mad KO machine really is he. He has enough power to keep people at bay, but that's it. He hasn't KO'd anybody (without a technicality in the rules) since 2007. Khan has only been knocked out by punches from huge punchers. I don't see a KO happening here.

    But an easy UD for Mayweather, sure. I'd like to see how Khan's style plays to Mayweather's, as it's something we haven't seen before
    That's not true, Diaz has never been a huge puncher but he dropped Khan and rocked him couple of times. Khan's chin is terrible he's getting stunned every time someone lands a clean shot on him.

    With that being said I think him vs Floyd would be fun to watch, Khan's hand speed would cause some trouble for Money but eventually he'd figure Khan out and stop him.

      Really? Do you know what Diaz's KO percentage is? its close to 70 % he deffinately can punch. People make a big deal about Khans chin but the punches that knocked him out would have knocked out most fighters. Look what Garcia did to Morales, how do you explain that and morales is knows for his chin the problem with Khan is he gets hit too clean whereas most others dont get his so cleanly. Anyway back to the point of the thread...Obviously Mayweather takes this in the end but I bet my house on it that Khan hits mayweather more than hes ever been hit. This will be a competitive fight!! Khan has never had problems with Technical fighters he only struggles against preassure fighters. Yes I know floyd can also do pressure he can do anything hes the best in the world but Pressure is not floyds game. I see Khan winning the first few rounds then mayweather changing from countering to more pressuring then picking khan off near round 7 to 8 then khan getting stopped round round 10 but this will be one heck of a fight!!

        Ya but thats why I said knocked out. Khan recovered from KD's. It's different when he got KO'd as he simply couldn't recover from them (hence he has always been stopped on his feet). We wouldn't have this problem with Mayweather. KD's sure, but a flat out KO is more unlikely than some make out

          Khan's offense is very predictable. All he has is speed. If Danny Garcia can time Khan within the first three rounds, Floyd will do it by the first or second. Khan is so easy to hit and with that pathetic glass chin of his I can see Floyd knocking him the *** out pretty quickly.
          Khan kept throwing the same combination again and again in that fight which ended with a lunging uppercut - he made himself easy to time and wide open to be hit because of that. He had very little variety, I would think Hunter would be training him to mix it up a lot more but Khan's problem is that he doesn't spend enough time with Hunter, he lives in a different country to his trainer when he's not fighting. That could work heavily against him in the future because he needs to invest much more time working on technique.

            The Garcia punch wasn't even on Khan's chin

              I think one big reason for the Garcia KO was that no one really knew that Garcia had that kind of power. Everyone thought he was just a average punches who just got past an old Morales. I think Khan just wasn't expecting a punch like that from Danny and he wasn't mentally prepared for that. We discovered just how hard Garcia hits on that night and the rematch with Morales, he's got power in both hands.

                Khan would destroy Floyd and expose who the real fraud is.

                  " . . . . All he has is speed. If Danny Garcia can time Khan within the first three rounds, Floyd will do it . . . "

                  without a doubt.

                  also, wtf has khan done to deserve a shot against mayweather?

                    hey dumba55es. no one here is dis*****g the fact that Floyd can time him with a counter, but Floyd doesn't have the power of Garcia and won't do nearly as much damage. Did you see how many clean shots he landed on Guerrero and he was standing without a problem?

                    Khan probably hits harder than Mayweather, in fact i read an interview where Roger Mayweather thought that as well.

                      ****** fight, the glass jaw of Khan is barely even a stepping stone right now. Nobody would buy that shit.
