    Honestly, I think it's going to be Maidana. The more I think about it, it makes more sense seeing as how Floyd has been fighting people coming off of really good wins.

    Also, I think Maidana's stock rose a lot after beating Broner because Broner's face is all over worldstar, instagram, twitter, etc. So now all the memes made about Maidana and Broner have made Maidana much more known (could be wrong, just my thought process)

      im positive khans name was just tossed around to keep the floyd hype going.

      i think it was a possibilty until el chino did what he did. Khan will be a for sure flop in the US, might do well in the UK but we all know the majority of PPV sales come from the US, on cinco de mayo.

      maidana has ALOT of hype right now, i dont think floyd is gonna let that spoil, gotta get it while its hot.

      khan.... all he has is instagram and a 106 and park cameo.

        Should he fight an indian or someone of hispanic decent on a mexican holiday? Be realistic, think in an economic sense before you put your votes in, NOT what you want.

        Khan bout is strictly for UK PPV pull, floyd has nothing to gain there but money.

        Maidana is a title holder, of a latino decent and the most appealing plot of all, he just beat the sht out of baby bro and he needs to go in and avenge that loss. oh yea and i think mexicans got love for maidana than khan.
        GBP will stack a Mexican on the undercard. It helps sales and their fighters get a huge audience.

          I want to go back and find your post that says "Khan needs to redeem himself by knocking out unknown Carlos Molina, then fight to a decision against Diaz...and he must look like **** doing it."

          I hope it's Maidana. I don't think he'll beat Floyd, but it would be a hell of a lot more entertaining, and he deserves it more. Khan is unproven at 147 and has looked like garbage lately anyway.

            Maidana vs Floyd would be more exciting. It's the classic boxer vs the pressure fighter. Look at how Angulo made Lara look like an exciting fighter.

              Bull****. Maidana will look like a bum. Slow feet, flat footed, fairly slow hands, needs time to set for almost every damn punch...

              It will be like Alexander but 10 times worse.

              People always say power is the key, but Floyd has a great chin and doesn't get hurt!

              Speed, combinations and workrate are the key.

              Think Zab, Castillo and even Cotto.

              Oh and you MUST have extremely good stamina. Any round you dip in work, Floyd takes it easy.

              Khan has a chance to win rounds, he has fast feet, fast hands, and a high workrate. His chin, balance and brain is ****** though.

                I love Maidana, but lets be real here. Floyd will make him look silly. This is exactly the type f fighter Floyd thrives on. What we will see in a Maidana will 12 rounds of slipping and pot shots from Mayweather. Atleast in a Khan Fight I would think there would be more excitement and possibly even a knockout.

                  I dont mind seeing either or, both are gonna an exciting one sided match up, im pretty sure floyd pummels both but maidanas victory over the most hated boxer has major buzz right now. and alot of people also hate floyd and will assume that since he beat broner, he has a slight chance to beat floyd.

                      are you new to boxing?

                      thats a given. floyd does that to everyone, hell do the same sht to khan. he makes everyone look like an amateur.

                      that does not mean maidana is an automatic write off just cuz floyd will make him look silly.
