Tougher fight for Mayweather....Garcia or Khan?

[megadeth]

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?

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

Zab was the only fighter that he has fought w/faster hands I believe. first though, you are comparing a orthodox fast fighters vs. orthodox faster righter to an orthodox fast fighter vs. southpaw faster fighter. It just doesn't work. I see the problems that Khan has with even ordinary sluggers like maidana, KOd by Danny, and amateur look against Lamont and realize that there's no way that after 3 rounds I could ever imagine him giving mayweather anymore problems than a passed out date on prom night.

I hope to GOD you are right, but I am not even sure about him beating Alexander to be quite honest. In fact, I'm downright discouraged that the fight is being made. I WANT to see Mayweather/Khan even though in my mind I already know what happens. I think Alexander derails that dream. I hope I'm wrong.

This is what happens when a fighter is immaculate for the majority of his career, 4 competitive rounds equals deep trouble/deeply bothered. If Judah was that much of a problem for Mayweather he wouldn't have solved him within the usual 4 rounds.

You're also oversimplifying things. Judah ''bothering'' Mayweather wasn't just down to his speed, he was setting traps and timing Mayweather, things that Amir Khan does not do. He's stays in a gear and that's about it, there's no subtly to his punches.

The tougher fight would be, the guy who's most likely gonna see the final bell.

floyd's been ducking khan for years. making him fight tough roadblocks like julio diaz and that lil midget molina in order to get a fight with him.

Garcia for his habit to punch with you, a lot people say he throws looping shots but those is what hurt Floyd the most he usually doesn't get hit with shots that's in his line of sight other than jabs.

[El Angel]

Khan would trouble at least for a couple of rounds. Garcia would just get embarrassed.

Khan is absolute garbage.



Garcia at least can punch.

[heavyhands702]

neither! why? cause khan doesn't have the defense to deal with mayweathers hand speed and also khan has a glass chin. danny garcia doesnt have the hand speed or the defense to deal with floyd for 12 rds.

I think Garcia because of his timing

Khans speed wouldn't factor in that much I can see him getting broken down to the body and stopped late khan tends to back up in straight lines and that's never smart versus someone as skilled as Floyd he also comes in at straight lines too so I can see him getting hit by a right hand.
