      Also, are Mayweather's feet fast enough to keep him out of harm's way?

      Khan's feet may be faster than Floyd's. Maidana was able to catch him in the late rounds, despite Amir having a fast bike.

        He's going to use his footwork to control distance use his jab counter lead right hand Maidana will gas by the 5th and it cruise control from there.

            Khan is not comparable to Floyd. Khans feet aren't faster. And khan is a whole lot dumber. He moves in straight predictable lines. U really shouldbt even compare the two in any way whatsoever.

              Maidana Floyd is a mismatch. Lara, pacquaio , Bradley, Thurman are tougher fights for Floyd.

                Jab to the body, jab to the face, lateral movement, bait him into getting off those right hand pullcounters, right hands down the pipe.. a few check hooks as the fight goes into the later(8 & up) rounds. Movement. There's so many tools at Floyd's disposal against Maidana that it isn't even fair.

                I'm a fan of both guys as well, but I don't see Maidana implementing his style on Floyd at all. Floyd won't get lazy like Broner did.

                  Once again, that's not a technical answer. You're just using the word "badly" to describe how you think Mayweather beats him. That's not a technical/specific answer.

                    That's a detailed, specific reply. Thank you for making that good point.

                      In your opinion would Mayweather be unscathed after the twelfth round of a fight against Marcos Maidana?
