    People may hate Khan, and think he is garbage, but is it possible for him to win more than 2 rounds? He is a fast starter and the fights he wins, often are fights where he wins 4 or 5 early rounds.

    Do you think he will get more rounds than Canelo who really only got 1 round?

    I think his speed and jab would give Mayweather a few issues early and maybe take a few of the early rounds.

      Why include Canelo? He didn't win one round.

        He won a round on my card, but it could have been a sympathy round which was close. Think it was 8?

          I think so too. A jab if it works well can be effective VS Mayweather, and speed always helps to landing one or two shots here and there.

            I'm not entirely sure Khan could last 5 rounds. There's not many fighters I would say that about fighting Mayweather. He probably would, but Khan's flaws are well-known and extremely susceptible to what Mayweather does well. If he won more than a round, Khan could consider it a success.

              I think the problem for Khan will be after the first 3 or 4 rounds when he starts becoming predictable and Mayweather will be getting his timing down, once he get's it I think Khan will get picked off.

                Khan may be KO'd, but say what you want about his chin, he doesn't give up. He gets up at least once.

                Plus I really do think 147 he may not be as chinny. He's a tall guy and his frame was looking small at 140, as if he was struggling.

                I am not sure if him training on his weaknesses now and also training almost full time as opposed to 10 weeks is a good or bad thing. Virgil and him doesn't seem to be making that much noise in performance.

                  What? That would imply he could hold Mayweather to a draw lol and no no he can not.

                    2 rounds. I still think it'll be fun.
