Comments Thread For: Amir Khan Say Mayweather Deal is "Very Close" Now

[Deeznuts]

A tune up fight and risk his glass jaw before negotiating a Floyd fight? U must not know much about the sport, truth is Khan is a C level fighter and has no chance of beating Floyd so we get another Guerrero event

[FrankieBruno]

My boy Khan about to beat Floyd via SD and give him his toughest fight since Del Hoya

I'm taking sig bets

[thack]

Khan is a utter and complete clown...for the sake of boxing , please do not allow this to be true but hey then if it does then ALL will see his red nose ,boycott-boycott-boycott..!

The most obvious avoidance of a fighter (Pacquiao) I've ever seen in my life.

[Scary]

How the hell is Bradley a repetition of other fights? When the hell did he fight someone like Bradley?

Bradley is a good boxer, but he don't have a chance, he's not slow but he ain't real quick either and without real top power, I can't see him troubling Mayweather too much. get me right, I'd love to see this fight, but I'm still far more sold out on the Khan fight based on the fact that Khan has the fastest hands in the business.
It'd be like against Zab, after 4 rounds Mayweather would have figured Bradley out. There's no doubt that anyone who fights Bradley is in for a long tough night, but I just don't see Bradley winning rounds nor being able to knock Floyd out, you really wanna see that fight?

There is plenty of doubt about how good Pacman is now. Plenty.

What doubt or questions are there that Pacquiao hasn't answered?

They say he couldn't handle a real welterweight. He Destroyed Cotto.

They said he avoided Slick, Young, Prime African American Fighters. He beat Timothy Bradley, The third best Welterweight Next to Mayweather and Pacquiao.

They say he lost his Killer Instinct. He was battering Marquez and was constantly going in for the kill and got caught while being too aggressive and got knocked out, because Marquez(A career counter puncher) has been trying to set him up for the perfect shot for 10 years and 40+ rounds, and he finally did it.

They say the Knockout Ruined him, and he looked like Floyd Mayweather against Brandon Rios, Winning every round and hardly getting hit, displaying his mastery of the Sweet Science.

What more do you people want? What does Pacquiao have to do next? He's already done everything.

The only guys that we can place as a 50/50 against Floyd are middleweights and above - and only if Floyd moved up in weight, which places him at a physical disadvantage. Maybe Lara at light middleweight would be a 60/40 fight in Floyd's favor if Floyd put himself at a disadvantage and fought at 154. But who else can you see being competitive with Floyd other than Khan at 147? Khan has the style to cause Floyd some difficulties and styles make fights. Of course, there's always Pacquiao too but that fight isn't happening while he's with Arum so it's not worth mentioning.

and Khan does?

pac needs to rematch bradley and jmm first and pac just got ko by jmm so he doesnt deserve a shot at floyd. - flomos

Good for AK. He has worked hard and is as deserving as most other guys. In other news, his wife is pregnant so its celebrations all around in the Khan home.
