Possible Matchup: Amir Khan vs. Floyd Mayweather Jr. Prediction & Discussion Thread

[radioraheem]

when you supposedly make it that next "level," you get treated as such, in that respective level, not every single "level" of every single fighter in all of boxing.

you could be a great fighter with great talents, and when you make it to the very top with fighters who share the same attributes, you can be one of the worst fighters to step into a ring, yes.

like einstein said - its all relative. and on the elite "level," khan is one of the worst boxers, yes. we all know this and even you do, and floyd fighting him is the biggest slap to boxing he has ever done, and likely ever will do...

I don't believe it's a slap in the face. There's very few options for him. And all the options are weak options. Even Kobe Bryant asked him after beating Canelo, 'who is there to fight next?'

There is only one realistic option that has some intrigue -- Pacquaio. In my opinion, that's the only fight left for Floyd. And it's the biggest money fight left. To me, that's the fight he should make and then retire. After Pacquaio, there is nothing left, I mean nothing. But it's too bad that there's big egos on both sides.

But considering how much money is involved, it's still really crazy for that fight not to happen next year.

Exactly this^^^^^^^^^^

I never knock a fighter for taking the money fight over the tougher fights...the money fight is the LOGICAL fight imo....both Floyd and AK made logical decisions by agreeing to fight each other imo....the backlash is understandable and by no means am I defending this fight but if the money is there our dogs gotta bite whomever....it is what it is!!

UK or Vegas...I'm there!!...gotta be in the building holding it down for my bro AK....he might be in over his head against Floyd but the gunner will come out gunning and if he have to he'll go out gunning....that's my dude!!...let's go AK

Damn Mr Philadel this is your worst post ever.

Fight doesn't bother me. That it's on PPV does.

[I Love Jesus!]

Khan certainly does not deserve a fight with Mayweather but money talks in business and with Floyd. Khan can and will bring in a lot more money than anyone not called Manny Pacquiao.

His sales in Europe (****** fans) and most of the Arab and Indian Sub will bring in a lot. If this actually happens then I would love to see what Khan can do in the first few rounds.

Money convieniently doesnt talk when it comes to pacquiao unfortunetly

[Mr. Philadel]

NO...

Please tell me you from New York who so happens to want to be from Philly and not my city..

C'mon bro miss me with that nut ass my city ****...stick to the script...what part of my post got you wired up?!?

[Devils Advocate]

Yup... That quote sounds like Khan will most likely be his next opponent.

That's what Mayweather says about all his opponents.

"So and so is a strong champion."

Enjoy your first KO win in years Mayweather fans.

Usually Floyd would have said Khan needs to go avenge his losses against Garcia, Prescott, and Peterson but he gets a pass and called Champion by the Goat. I don't mind seeing a Floyd fight Khan but he still seems scared to fight Pacquiao at the end of the day.

Floyd wants to make as much money as he can with this Showtime deal and maybe at the end of it he fights Pac but now when he's at the height of his fame and popularity, there is to much risk involved. Even if Floyd were to beat Pacquiao (which he probably does) he probably taste the canvas and that's what IMO I believe Floyd is afraid of the embarrassment. Even Larry Merchant figured that out after Mosley damn near had him out but he recovered and got the victory.

Floyd is probably the worst boxer to date. Just throws straight rights, ducks, then runs around the ring. He doesn't even throw hooks, they are like slap hooks. What's worst is that shoulder roll...it is borderline illegal as he nearly has his back facing his opponent.

[Mr. Philadel]

Damn Mr Philadel this is your worst post ever.
