        Funny $h!t is...everybody Floyd fights is considered NO RISK to you clowns! Every guy that is considered a risk to y'all are either at 160 or just so happens to be with Top Rank...complaining about the same ish has to get old, doesn't it?

          its not about who is better, its who is raanked #2 and Tim having beaten Manny (yes I think manny won too) and JMM would clearly be #2 and should therfore fight floyd for the lineal title(if you are someone that thinks the lineal title is still open)

            Khan is a much more viable opponent than Guerrero and Ortiz...let's be realistic here...Guerrero has zero speed and throws looping punches and Ortiz while fast and hard hitting doesn't have the mentality to endure. Khan may be glass chined but he is faster and more technical than both fighters aforementioned combined. In fact if I had to choose which of the three would put on the better showing versus Mayweather I would say Khan would although I see him getting KO'd if he forces the issue. The difference is Khan has speed to get his punches off if Mayweather fights him in the center of the ring...things that guerrero, ortiz, and Canelo all lacked. In order to stand any remote chance versus Mayweather you need speed and really good jab and those I think are Amir's greatest strengths. I'm totally not against this fight happening because in the end i'd rather see a guy get KO'd trying to go for the win than guys who just want to see the end of the 12th round and the check it brings.

              They are usually vocal, but not when it comes to Floyd

              If Garcia wants it he needs to start talking or his dad does, I personally don't think they want it for now

              Khans been calling out Floyd for ages
              He has. Angel has been saying Danny will beat Mayweather.

                Yeah, he went to TR instead of fighting Khan. Any fighter does that because of the p[ayday.

                he officially beat manny and provodnikov and is an undefeated ww champion. Should he beat JMM, he will be the 2nd best ww in the world other than floyd.
                I think he was just joking. Everyone knows Bradley is the most deserved WW to fight Floyd but nobody talks about it because he doesn't have the power to KO floyd so they use the excuse of what THEY believe is truth aka that he lost to Pac and should have lost to Provo. When in reality, like you mentioned, he's undefeated and IF he beats JMM he would be the 2nd best WW.

                But again, nobody wants to talk about him because he's with Top Rank/Bob Arum and they don't want to admit that the fight won't happen because of that fact. It will expose the fact that because Pac is with Bob Arum/Top Rank that fight won't get made either. Do people think Floyd is ducking Bradley? Hell no. They know it won't get made because of Bob/Top Rank. They would rather just write Bradley off even though he deserves the fight more than anyone especially IF he beats JMM.

                  Just because Floyd says he would like to fight in the UK....he will never fight in the uk. It's to easy and comfortable for him to fight in Vegas! It's home for him

                      Thats true but floyd.gets the k.o. In this fight no later then 10 rnds imo.
