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

[bojangles1987]

People are ****ing delusional about Amir Khan.

Floyd Mayweather will not care in the slightest about Khan's speed, nor will he be bothered.

Khan's chin is brittle in the first five rounds but he slows down by the sixth and gives away any advantage. He is not the level of fighter I want to see Mayweather fight. Mayweather would score a rare knockout if this bad fight is made.

[The Theory]

I agree TS.

If McCloskey didn't give a damn about Khan's speed, Mayweather sure as hell won't be bothered.

Mayweather could take it inside and chop Khan up to the body. Khan has zero infighting skill.

Floyd Finally Speaks "Khan is a Strong Young Champion. When He Falls, He Gets Back Up

New interview defending Khan:



Some other quotes:

"At this level, boxing is a business and whoever they pick, it will do big numbers"

And then he changes what he means by "champion".

Name me a fighter who has outboxed Khan. Not hurt him, outboxed him.

McCloskey lost every round, 6-0 shutout. If he didn't care about Khan's speed he had a funny way of showing it.

Which boxer did he fight that was close to Mayweathers level?

It will sure as hell be a better fight then the canelo and Guerrero fights.

Barrera and Pacquiao. Granted Barrera was not prime but that was also a shutout iirc. Khan also sparred with a prime Pacquiao and held his own on a pure boxing level based on the footage. Sparring is sparring, but still he wasn't getting dominated by any means.

If Khan can take an opponent's power, he's so fast it's difficult to see him being outboxed. I'm not saying Floyd can't or won't do it mind, just inviting his knockers to take a look at the bigger picture.
