Mayweather Tight-Lipped. Doesn't Confirm Or Deny Khan As Next Opponent..

Who's gonna buy the khan fight?

He has better name recognition...so that helps him.
What doesn't is being slapped around and then slowly coming back

Who's gonna buy the khan fight?

More ppl than Alexander and that's a fact. Alexander fight is undoubtedly much better tho.

Love watching him box, but his interviews are horrible

The last question is a perfect example of that. Simple question about if he thought of fighting sooner than may, due to looking great with a shorter lay off and somehow he ends up not answering the question.

I'd rather see Alexander.
He hasn't done much else recently, but at least he wasn't knocked around the past 2 years.

Nobody wants to see Floyd fight another quitter, we already saw what happened when he fought Ortiz, Ortiz panicked and essentially quit again. Alexander will do the same thing, just like he did against Bradley.

Might as well get him out of the way. But im not going to pay for this fight

Still a much better option than Khan, in terms of meaning something boxing wise.

who the heck is floyd mayweather gonna fight lol. has he ever been in this situation before, where he's levels above his realistic opposition? it always seemed like there was the next guy in line for him. not now

[Carpe Diem]

Sounds to me like he has already accepted Khan as his next opponent.

LOL @ "solid opponent". What did Khan do to earned this fight? Good luck on selling this piece of **** to the gullible casual fans, Floyd.

I don't think so. Most thought Alexander lost to Matthysse, after that he beat Maidana - someone Khan already beat. Following that, Alexander beat Bailey for a welterweight title - Bailey already had 7 losses at the time. After this Alexander fought a weight drained Purdy, who couldn't actually make the weight in the end so it was a non-title fight. Now Alexander is fighting Porter - Porter is a guy who drew with Julio Diaz in their first fight while Khan beat Julio Diaz the first time around.

And, going back to the original point, Alexander quit against Bradley while we all know Bradley avoided the Khan fight, call it a duck or a tactical move, he still avoided Khan. So boxing wise Khan is still a better choice than Alexander.

Huge Floyd fan but I just can't support him fighting Khan, that's Pacquiao style of picking opponents.
