    Khans as good as Gatti, Baldomir and Ortiz so should be deserving of a Floyd fight.

    You don't have to be that good to fight Floyd.

      That is COWARDLY! How do you even market Mayweather vs Khan? At least if he would have defeated Alexander it would have made the match up a little bit more interesting but right now none of the Hardcore Boxing Fans will take that match up serious and the Casual fans in America have no ***in clue who Khan is so they will look him up on youtube and see him getting knocked the *** out by Garcia and they will not guy that match up

        I really hope Mayweather doesn't fight Khan next. I just couldn't get hyped for that fight.

The match up with Garcia is the one that'll spark most interest, unfortunately 1 fight for Garcia isn't enough to build momentum. If he beats let us say the winner of Alexander and Judah ( should be Alexander) and maybe beats someone like Guerrero ( On the undercard of Khan v Mayweather), then the interest for a match up between the two would increase for a September bout.

          That being said I don't want to see a Mayweather v Khan match up. It's assumed that Mayweather's future opponents will be outmatched however you hope that they will at least deserve the fight.
          You're too good of a poster to actually believe for a 2nd Khan/Floyd is better than Floyd/Garcia in may. Garcia is the guy who destroyed Khan and beat the Machine. Khan's done nothing but sweep canvas and beat a pillow puff fighter.

            How many rounds do you think Garcia would win against Floyd?

              Don't know, his footwork has been on point lately though, And he has intelligence far greater than his age. I'm sure he'll bag his share.

                Not one round would he win in my opinion. He's an inferior static counter-punching 140lber stepping up to 147 for the first time. There's literally nothing in his favour over Floyd, not even power since it's untested at WW.

                  And you're entitled to your opinion. I'm fairly certain Garcia does far better than Amir Khan would in mine.

                  Edit: Garcia's power may be unproven at welterweight. But khan's chin was proven garbage at welterweight by a lightweight no less!!

                    And what the **** has Queen Con proved at WW? Oh yeah he hasn't fought there and isn't confident enough to face Alexander!! In his only fight above 140 Julio ****ing Diaz tapped his chin and dropped him like a sack of potatoes!!

                      Technically, anything from 141 to 147 is WW.

                      and isn't confident enough to face Alexander!! In his only fight above 140 Julio ****ing Diaz tapped his chin and dropped him like a sack of potatoes!!
                      It's actually Alexander who has been stalling about this fight for most of the year, not Khan. Now Devon's happy, he'll have his Haymon judges lined in a row and Khan will need a stoppage to win.
