I'm okay with Alexander. Devon is a good fighter; he's not very exciting, so what? He does what he does with his skills, and put a stomp on Maidana.

Floyd vs. Alexander I'm coming around to; especially if the alternative is Khan.


ps Alexander has to beat Berto though.
pss just kidding; I actually enjoy Floyd's fights a lot, just get annoyed at his ultra fans

You're ok with Alexander but not Khan? We're talking about an exciting fighter, with a huge British fan base vs a boring fighter with no fan base. Alexander has hardly proved more than Khan if you are honest and say he didn't deserve the wins against Kotelnik and Matthysse.

On a pure fighting standpoint, Khan and Alexander are at a similar level, but Khan is faster, stronger, and has a better jab. He's 500% more exciting. That alone should put him ahead of the wholly uninspiring Alexander.

For probably the 1,000,000th time in this thread Khan can't fight him because of Ramadan.

On a side note Devon has a much bigger dan base than both Ortiz and the Ghost so don't give me thay. Devon draws better than almost all fighters when he fights at or around St. Louis.

I don't know why there'd be an outcry regarding a potential Mayweather - Khan fight. Outside of Alvarez, Mayweather - Khan is the most intriguing match-up.

Let's be honest, Mayweather would easily outpoint Garcia and Matthysse as they don't have the speed, jab, or length to trouble Mayweather.

Khan's jab, combined with his speed, height, and reach, could give Mayweather a few problems, and I believe he'd definitely steal a few early rounds unless he was caught, but Mayweather is hardly the biggest puncher in the world, and he wouldn't run Khan down like Maidana, Peterson, or Diaz.

I see Mayweather winning in a 7-5/8-4 type of decision. Khan would have little chance of winning, but he'd bring the best out of Mayweather and make it an exciting fight that's for sure.

Floyd is a great puncher and deadly accurate which makes up for 1 punch KO power he would place his punches perfect on Khan.

Of course Floyd would probably win against Khan, he'd probably win against anyone in the weight division. But Khan might be one of the most competitive against Floyd around 147, just style wise that is. This would be a great fight. Outside of a few people on the net, there wouldn't be an outcry over the fight, just excitement and lots of money.

Still think Canelo Floyd will probably happen in Sept, but if not, maybe Khan Floyd is something I could definitely see happening. As much money Khan brings to the table, Canelo brings even more. But I don't think Floyd is interested in fighting at 154, so this might bring Khan back into the number one spot.

I think it's Floyd's right not to fight at 154. Doesn't mean he's ducking anybody. If a 36 year old fighter wants to fight people in his own natural weight class, he should.
