    Khan more dangerous than Pacquiao for Floyd : Paulie Malignaggi

    Amir Khan would be a more dangerous fight for Floyd Mayweather than the "easy" option of taking on Manny Pacquiao, according to Paulie Malignaggi.
    Mayweather and Khan's recent trash talk enhanced speculation that the pair could fight each other next year, with Khan saying he would be too quick for the American.
    However, having won his rematch with Marcos Maidana, Mayweather hinted a fight with Pacquiao is more likely, although Malignaggi feels Khan would pose a greater threat to Mayweather's unbeaten record.
    "A really intelligent boxing fan would understand that people like Amir Khan are more dangerous to Floyd Mayweather than Manny Pacquiao at this level, at this point," Malignaggi told ESPN.
    "For the mainstream sports fans that don't really understand boxing the way they should then the Mayweather- Pacquiao fight will always be the dream fight that never happened so if it can happen then it will generate a ton of interest, a ton of worldwide audience.
    "But I actually think it's a pretty easy fight for Floyd Mayweather to win and I think Khan would pose a big risk to the prefect record of Floyd Mayweather."

    Who thinks he knows more boxing than professional boxer (Malignaggi) ?

        People take the mickey out of Pac now and dismiss him, since he got ko'ed. But you are as good as your last fight and Pac beat quite comfortable p4p no2 Bradley. And FLoyd struggled with Maidana.

        Cotto beat Mallignagis butt, and said Pac would beat FLoyd.

          Khan & Thurman are only more of a threat to Mayweather as Paulie says because Floyd might actually fight them motherfckers LOL!

          Pac beats any opponent better & easier than Khan + Thurman excluding Marquez who has Pacquiao's soul

            U heard this on ESPN but honestly is common knowledge that
            Paulie hates Pac for some reason. He recently accused him of taking steroids and badmouths him every chance he gets.

              No! And Paulie hates Pacquiao for some reason like a previous poster already stated. Pacquiao would beat Floyd. Khan would just not get knockedout and lose a decision.

                I think Khan would surprise a few folks if the fight got made with Mayweather.
                I'm not saying that he would win but I do think Floyd would have a bumpy few rounds

                  Neither of those two stand a chance but at least Pacquiao is deserving while Khan shouldn't even be relevant.
