      I cant believe that this fight is being seriously considered. What a joke.

        I'm fine with being in the minority but I don't have a issue with this fight at all,

        If you don't like it don't watch, where is it that fights can only happen if a certain blueprint is followed ,

        It will be an entertaining fight not likely anything great but deal with it~

          I'm only ok with it if its free. He could take this in february and still be fresh enough to fight in May.

Khan's defense falls short when he is pressured against the ropes, but Mayweather is not a pressure fighter! There IS a possibility that he can knockout Khan thanks to his weak chin, but what if he doesn't, this is not a guaranteed knockout! We can experience a great boxing session with 2 great boxers if Khan can hold up. He has faster hands than Mayweather, excellent boxing skills, great footwork, and is game with his hands to make the fight exciting.. Nobody will ever beat Mayweather, but I would love to watch this fight.
            I agree 100%

                Seriously, credit for what? Maybe the most popular fighter to fight in the UK. Floyd has only fought at MGM.

                  Khan's a pathetic joke, I hope Mayweather doesn't move forward with this fight. If he does its Mayweather the promoter and not the fighter making the deci$ion. When I look at Amir Khan I can almost make out the callow likeness of Adrien Broner. He has zero chin, a fat mouth and zero chin. If Floyd moves on this I'm not ordering the fight period, I might not watch it for free on the net.

                  As a promoter how can you convince boxing fans Khan has granite when we all know he has nothing but a chandelier....

                      Perhaps Khan is also made to look like a sparring partner against Floyd...but the important thing is that someone else from a different zip code is given a chance!

                      Dont get me wrong, I love the Mexican/PR style. More lead footed, phone booth, mono y mono in center of the ring or against the ropes. But lets be honest...Floyd boxes circles around this style, resulting in uneventful 12 round sparring matches.

                      Put someone in there that is gonna at least bring SOME drama to Floyd! Someone with a good chin, not afraid to get hit or take a counter, and the speed and quickness to stay in Floyd's face! Besides the chin, Khan has these attributes !

                      Mexico and PR? Please...Floyd isn't breaking a sweat against these guys!
