Comments Thread For: Schaefer on Mayweather vs. Khan: Styles Make Fights!

[kingfaze19]

i wonder how those commercials for the fight are gonna be like

"amir khan, the dangerous sensation of Britain, with his infamous FAST HANDS, coming off the destruction of former P4P great Julio Diaz will now take on Mayweather, who wins in this battle of future hall of famers ??''

It kills me that Mayweather's opponents & undercard cast seldom get their due credit when it comes to his PPV numbers.

[Mike Haynes]

Khan defeated Maidana, so the better Maidana does the better it makes Khan look....win-win for Floyd.

Don't mind this fight at all, not like am paying for it. I get to see Mayweather against better handspeed, I would rather see this than another typical pressure fighter that Mayweather alway deals with easily. And the fight would happen, Mayweather is on floydhype talking and how he makes appearance to keep his name out there so he can stay relevant and then we had Amir Khan appearing on BET just like Robert Guerrero was making appearances that he had never made in his career.

At the moment, the next opponent for Floyd Mayweather is undecided.

Slated for a May 3 return to the ring inside of the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, Mayweather has stayed relatively mum on who he would prefer to meet, although his hints have revealed that he isn’t completely opposed to facing off with British star Amir Khan.

During a recent conversation with Golden Boy Promotions CEO Richard Schaefer, he addressed the Mayweather-Khan rumors with myself and ******.com’s Lem Satterfield.

“You know, when Floyd fights it’s an event,” Schaefer stated. “And Floyd could frankly fight Joe Schmoe and it could still be an event because of his personality, his reach, his everything. A Floyd event is must-see TV; it’s a must-see event.”

Stylez do make fights, it's why he should fight Maidana not Amir Prescott.

Yup. Khans chin is the perfect style for Mayweathers fragile hands.

[Chris Collins]

Khan's a good fighter and has the style and speed to present an interesting and exciting challenge to Mayweather, love it if this fight gets made. People should stop getting their knickers in a twist about it.

I guess they have to sell this fight somehow

I really don't think Mayweather will KO Khan. Khan has only been cracked (fight ending) by huge shots - a Garcia left hook, and that huge Prescott hook. Mayweather might drop him like Diaz, but Mayweather doesn't have that killer instinct or the power to flat out crack him like that.

I don't think Khan has a bad chin. I think his chin is only a little worse than Bradley's chin....the difference being Bradley has ridiculous recovery ability, whereas Khan never seems to recover properly

[Nightfall]

A sell-job of Khan. Schaefer gets his paychecks signed by Junior, so what else is he going to say. Just a car salesman. They have had more than enough excuses for more than 5 years to not fight Pacquiao. When this stiff claims Mayweather may be the best of every generation, he should be drug tested. Floyd would never have climbed in the ring with Hagler, Leonard, Hearns, Duran, Arguello or Pryor in the prime... never. Floyd lacks courage. He made Cotto and Mosley wait more than 10 years to fight, well past both their prime, and still to this day won't fight Pacquaio. Don't give us this crap how dominate Floyd has been hand picking safe routes to the bank for more than 17 years. Schaefer, you need to wipe your sh** off your nose.

Marquez and mayweather has the same style. That's why pacquiao won't fight mayweather. He'll get sent to the moon again
