Comments Thread For: Hunter: Amir Khan's Speed Can Throw Mayweather Off

Once again. The fact that they keep trying to sell and push this fight on us shows how crap this fight is. Real fights dont need to be sold to the boxing public.

Khan has a hard time with brawlers, we all know this.

Floyd is not a brawler, nor does he enjoy getting hit, he changed his trainer because of this reason.

I just dont see Floyd knocking out Khan, not if he fights him like he fought The Ghost and Canelo. The Ghost won 3 rounds against Floyd, Khan can win 5 or 6 in my book and possibly win a SD.

For Floyd to win, i believe he has to knock Khan out or make him taste the canvas a few times if it goes to a decision.

This fight really will be about Floyds power and if he can't hurt Khan, he will be in a world of trouble. You have to hurt Khan to sway a fight in ur direction otherwise he walks all over you

Here is how the fight would go if it happen. Khan would chase Mayweather around for 3 or 4 rounds getting tagged repeatedly, lunging in like he has a tendency to do. Right around the 5th or 6th rounds Mayweather would take over and cruise to an easy decision. A KO/KD probably wouldn't happen but unnecessary to beat him

I think you're over simplifying Khan's abilities. He is certainly a talented fighter. The problem is the space between his ears. How else would you explain how he did so poorly in a number of winnable fights for him? Including the fight with Garcia.

It will take a lot of discipline on Khan's part to beat someone like Mayweather. Judging by his recent performances he is severely lacking that kind of discipline.

Trainer Virgil Hunter is confident that Amir Khan's speed will create some problems for Floyd Mayweather Jr. (45-0, 26KOs) - if a fight is finalized between the two boxers. Khan (28-3, 19KOs) revealed on Monday that he signed his end of the contract to face Mayweather on May 3rd at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. Mayweather has yet to sign his end of the agreement, but all of the signs are point to a showdown with Khan.

Not to delve too deeply into stereotypes but he's smoking crack if he thinks a glass jawed buffoon like Khan will give Mayweather any trouble in any area......

Do agree with this... as a huge unshy Mayweather supporter, I admit I will not pay for this one, because I absolutely cannot stand Khan and don't believe he deserves this shot. And i buy ALL Mayweather PPV's. But this one hit me below the belt too I have to say.. Hoped he'd surprise us all and take a Maidana fight, which May would dominate IMO but at least Maidana deserves it!

[Yaconcha]

Who are these kids?

Broner?

Give me a break

Floyds never been in the ring with anyone fast as Khan, unless they were way past their prime i.e Shane Mosley

ok, a break for you here....ok thats long enough.!! now lets see....judah,corrales,jmm AND de la hoya in any part of his career was very fast...lets not forget, this will not be at 140 or 147..theres an obvious difference in ability to work the speed wit increased weight which, funnily enough....the great floyd mayweather will,can and has done up or down of these weight divisions at will.
can king "khunt" do that?
i dont think so aaaaaaaaaaaaand im very surprised that anybody other than betting chancers would give this complete bell end any kind of anything against anybody including the "great" willie limond! so mate, dont be a **** all your life.

People still on this "Khan is a real tough stylistic matchup for Mayweather" ****? LOL

It was funny 2-3 years ago and it still is.

Khan is perhaps the #1 example of how people overrate speed. Speed doesn't mean squat if you can't use it right. Khan is too devoid of technical skills, ring smarts, instincts, balance, footwork, defense, accuracy, punch resistance, etc...for Mayweather. The only chance he has is if Mayweather suffers a freak accident and breaks his leg or kneecap.

Other than that, the only question is whether Mayweather wins by stoppage, or 12-0, 11-1, or 10-2. Or maybe, just maybe, 9-3.

my friend, you are **** on the money here. well said.

Quoted for realizm...I couldn't have put it better myself.

It is slightly mind numbing how people suddenly believe this will be a fight worth watching....Fcking Sheep...
