    Khan will literally get caught every time he throws a punch. This is a garbage fight.

          don't they have to announce the fight before you reach a conclusion on what it says about floyd?
          Whatever he said, it was something along those lines. And no, he wasn't 'jabbing' Manny. It was just another one of the hundreds of excuses he's come up with.

          Anyway, I don't wanna turn this into yet another Pac-Floyd war.

            after reading this post I have a better idea why you think Khan will be tough.

            just wait until they announce the fight before you decide what it means for floyd.

            carry on.

              You've got me curious now. Care to elaborate on your first sentence?

                Cotto gave Floyd his toughest fight. Floyd said he wanted to retire after Cotto

                  People keep going on about Khan's suspect chin, but has Floyd got the power to take advantage of that? I don't think so. Plus Khan's chin isn't THAT bad. I mean it's not a rock, but people often exaggerate how weak it is. The guy took quite a few big shots from Maidana, who's one of the hardest P4P punchers in the sport, and managed to survive without going down.

                  Khan's speed and combination punching will cause Floyd all sorts of problems imo, especially in the first half of the fight. I don't wanna hear any of this 'once Floyd starts timing him, it's over!' BS followed by the suggestion that Floyd should be fighting Maidana or D.Garcia, who would both get shut out easily. At least Khan will give him a few problems in patches and win some rounds.

                  I don't care who 'deserves' a shot at Floyd, I care about who's gonna give him the best fight. And Khan will certainly give him a better fight than slow, flat-footed snails like D.Garcia and Maidana. Don't get me wrong, I'd rather see Floyd man up and fight Pac, Lara or GGG/Martinez, who've both offered to come down to 154 to fight, but out of the names Floyd is willing to get in the ring with, Khan is the best option imo.

                  I think this fight will go the distance, but even if it doesn't, it'll be competitive for as long as it lasts imo. I predict that Floyd will win a close UD or a SD.

                  Khan is going to surprise a lot of people.
                  It's not hard punches than Khan goes down from, it's the ones he doesn't see. . . flush Counters

                  We all know who the best boxer in the game is at landing flush unseen counters

                  give it till round 4 and this fight will have it's minutes numbered. . . the minute floyd locks that timing down.

                  I do agree Khan's speed adds a new dimension, and I'm also interested to see how far it'll get him, but it won't be enough, Floyd is too smart to let that be a factor.

                    Floyd might take it easy than look for the ko, his hands shattering when he shatters Kahns chin, fight ends in a draw.
