    In the perfect world, he will never get to fight Floyd. Too bad this world isn't perfect.

      You may not be upset, but Khan fans as a whole? Extremely butt hurt and it shows in their posts consistently.

        Cotto at MW if he wins the belt.

          I don't think so. I think the point is that people don't want to see Mayweather against another slow, flatfooted brawler.

          Khan fans would want Khan to have the best possible chance to win and coming off a bad performance/year long lay-off, it didn't seem he was giving himself the best chance.

          But...given the choice of Khan and Maidana - which was a horrible choice in the first place - you'd think most would want to see a new style vs Floyd.

              I'm gonna throw up. Cotto won't even be the size of an actual MW, and it would be nothing more than Floyd/Cotto @ JMW again, except add a few pounds on Cotto, so it can be officially be called a MW title fight.

                You guys don't have a lot of faith in Khan I see.

                I don't know why. He's proven he's a warrior. He's been caught with some bombs in his career, some he took well, some not so well. It's as simple as that.

                He's still a good (to great) pure boxer.

                  New style or not, the guy who earned the fight got the fight, it's that simple.

                    Between Khan and Maidana you could have Khan or the guy Khan beat. Also its the fact he is flat footed and wont land *****. Devon Alexander is not half the boxer Floyd is. I wanted Khan, but him not getting it is only better for Khan.

                    Whats more pathetic? Khan Army being butt hurt over Floyd fight or Chino's fans even after their boy getting the fight still not getting over the fact chinny Khan spanked their boy?

                      No, he's not. He has a good jab, and can throw the straight right, but he has an ambush/jumpy style of fighting where anyone with decent counter-punching skill can timed and counter him on the way in.
