True, but you need a lot more than speed to beat Mayweather. Essential is a very good boxing IQ, as well as be diciplined. At times in his fights, Khan has been lacking in both. Of course, to each his own. I would love to see Khan do well in the fight, I just don't see it happening. So I assume you think he beats Alexander?
Tougher fight for Mayweather....Garcia or Khan?

Ofcourse you will need a lot more than speed, but when Mayweather fought Judah, we saw him in trouble, deep trouble, or should i say deeply bothered by the handspeed. Judah was very reactive fighting as a counterpuncher, i could see Khan going the same route, trying to get May to stalk him. At least thats what i would do. Khan has the fastest hands in boxing and i see speed as the ******nite that can beat Mayweather, based off the judah fight - even though they are two different fighters, i believe it is the speed that can crack Mayweather. Let me ask you, who has Mayweather faced with quicker hands than himself?True, but you need a lot more than speed to beat Mayweather. Essential is a very good boxing IQ, as well as be diciplined.

Yes i think Khan beats Alexander. I like this fight. It will be good intel.Comment

Actually the Judah Khan fought was very defensive, trained by Pernell Whitaker. Khan's outright handspeed negated Judah's defensive style.Comment

I don't think him giving Judah the work means he can compete with Floyd at all.Indeed! He's no genuis inside the ring, but he made Judah look like an amateur, which is indicates that he could challenge May. Furthwr than that i dont think Mayweather can ko Khan, i think he learned a lesson against Garcia. I really hope this fight gets made, id definitely place a highend bet on Khan.
I do agree with everyone else though. Khan's frantic in and out style will annoy Mayweather early. He'd eventually be stopped but it would probably take Floyd a couple of rounds to get going.
Danny has more of a punchers chance because he throws big punches with great timing, but I don't think it's likely one of those sweeping hooks would connect flush. Even if one did, I can't see Garcia laying Floyd out with one shot. Floyd plays it safe until he's absolutely taken over then it's target practice.Last edited by MASONSC; 07-26-2013, 10:10 AM.Comment

And? What relevance does that have?
Judah could be trained by God Almighty himself he still wouldn't have a good defense and he still would be a polar opposite to Mayweather.Comment

So let me try something else, can you name me a floyd fight where he faces someone with great handspeed, other than Judah?Comment

Khan. His hand speed would cause some trouble for Floyd.
Garcia is too flat footed and his shots are looping. Floyd probably wouldn't lose a round against him.Comment
