    Comments Thread For: Hatton: No Mismatch, Khan Can Trouble Mayweather

    Former champion turned promoter Ricky Hatton has tabbed fellow Brit Amir Khan as being capable of giving Floyd Mayweather Jr. serious problems if a fight is finalized for May 3rd of next year. Hatton himself challenged Mayweather in 2007 and saw himself get knocked out. Hatton is not sure that if Khan can actually score the upset, but says the very fast hands of Khan can trouble Mayweather, who is usually much faster than all of his opponents.

      Khan can't maintain his speed for 12 rounds though whereas Floyd can.

      Dream fight for Floyd though. Will look spectacular when he KOs Khan.

          After the first 2 rounds Mayweather would make that "speed" turn to "slo-mo" and then start picking Khan off.

              Not to be repetitive, but as soon as Mayweather starts landing the same lead right hands he hit Guerrero with, Khan is gonna get taken out.

                  If Mayweather even fights Amir it would be an obvious cherry pick.

                              I honestly think it would be fun while it lasted.

                              Khan doesn't have the chin to withstand many of Floyd's solid right hands, but he'd come to fight and might actually steal a round or two until he gets floored and stopped in the middle to later rounds.

                              I believe Khan has the misconception that Floyd can't hurt him. I take what Hatton says with a grain of salt, as I always have.

                                  Speed Kills I just don't know if his chin would hold up. Khan is very fast but May I think is still faster. It would be a different type of fight cuz Khan can actually box. Honestly I'm a Khan fan but he in no deserves this fight. He should be fighting Alexander or Garcia rematch at 47. Garcia should be getting this fight hands down. I'm curious of who Floyd picks next.

                                      I think Mayweather's fighting Khan next, and down the road I'm sure he's looking at the Broner-Maidana winner.
