    By now people get it when it comes to deciding whether to pay for another Floyd fight or not. Alvarez is the last Floyd opponent people thought could beat Floyd to a pulp. A 140 guy won't do it. It's gotta be another 154 fighter without catchweight.

    This is another exhibition match and not PPV worthy. This fight will bomb.
    :lol1 lmao!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

      Floyd gets a pass for fighting weight drained fighters and Pac victims and bloating people up and old fighters.

      So yes, he gets a pass for fighting Khan, just as long as its not at the expense of fighting Garcia, Bradley, Sergio and GGG as well.

        no.. floyd could make several damn good fights next but khan most certainly isnt one of them. khan has no business sharing a ring with floyd and if he does regardless it will be nothing short of a travesty.

        the likes of guerrero, baldomir and hatton while clearly outgunned going in had still earned the right to fight floyd and receive that one sided ass whuppin'. khan hasnt earned ****, he doesnt even deserve a rematch with garcia. getting mayweather is just absurd.

          I guess... If u really look in and around his weight class, he really doesn't have a choice...

          Garcia is probably "technically" his best option outside of Pacquiao, and he would get demolished... And he and his dad know this, so they don't even want it...

          And then there are guys like Vanes, Lara, Trout, and Molina who are not even close to PPV worthy fighters...

          IDK... I guess

            I don't give him one.

            I understand things have to be financially workable, but Khan literally has zero chance against Mayweather. Its an insult to boxing fans is what it is. Mayweather should at least wait until Khan has a few good wins under his belt. A money grab on a Khan that's last outing was getting beat from pillar to post by Julio Diaz would look extremely bad, and alienate me, for one.

Got clobbered by Prescott who is a C level fighter, kod by Garcia and went life and death with a passed prime Julio Diaz. With that said given his losses and weak chin makes him one of the worst Mayweather opponents yet. Does he get a pass since he fought Canelo in his previous fight?
              The bold just simply isn't true. He was rocked a few times, but dominated Diaz in large parts of the fight.

              His bad performance in that fight gets greatly exaggerated.

                He has more good wins than Canelo, Ortiz and Guerrero. Probably put together even.

                  i mean a few good wins to signify he's bouncing back from a KO loss and a lackluster performance against Diaz.

                    imo he didnt look good against molina or peterson either so its 4 poor performances in a row.

                      Agree. I still think it's a good fight though.

                      What was wrong with his performance against Molina? He dominated him from start to finish.
