Comments Thread For: Malignaggi: Thurman, Khan Pose Big Risk To Mayweather

[George Orwell]

I'm sorry but neither Khan nor Thurman is half the fighter Pacquiao is, and I'm no hater of any of these three men.

Paulie obviously is a troll or is butthurt that Pacquiao didnt take a picture with him one time.

If Mayweather doesn't fight Pacquiao in May, he will fight Khan. It is the biggest fight available to him and it is aided by the UK moneey.

And it will still be a pointless, ****** fight

Paulie said only mainstream fans who don't understand the sport like they should want to see Floyd/Pac. Is Sugar Ray Leonard a "mainstream fan"? seriously why is this guy so salty and taking slick jabs at Manny, does anybody know.

Paulie was always a blowhard phony, now he's a company man. Every time Showtime offers up a turd, 'the fans just don't understand'....

He takes it up the ass from Floyd.

There's a BIG difference between posing a big risk and BEATING Mayweather...

Nowadays, it's hard to tell whether Paulie is being serious or not. After the whole Haymon tirade, he turned over to the dark side and his opinion often benefits the network / people he works for / with.

With that said, Khan isn't a threat. He does present an intriguing fight though. I believe his speed and size will make it interesting.

Thurman is the real problem for Mayweather. HOWEVER, I still insist, Thurman has an identity crisis that he must solve ASAP. He is falling in love with his boxing more than his offensive style that got him the name one time... HE IS NOT outboxing Mayweather. He must make a conscious effort to press the action and use his ring smarts while doing so.

100% this. Paulie lost all credibility he had the second he talked **** about Haymon, then joined him and now magically only Haymon fighters are a threat to Floyd lol.

Khan poses the bigger risk out of the two IMO. His speed, movement, and power will be hard to deal with. With Floyd not being a power puncher, Khan can fight his fight and not worry about being KO'd. A lot of people will hate on Khan because of his chin but his boxing is pretty good.

Style-wise, Cotto was a bigger threat than all of them.

Let's see Floyd has issues with aggressive fighters, Fast fighters and left handed fighters. Does that describe anybody we've seen fight before. That's as dumb a statement as Saying Floyd will be less of a challenge to Manny as Kell Brooke and Danny Garcia when we know Manny has issues with slick counter punchers.. Paulie has always hated on Manny for some reason. They still are the two best 147 lbs fighters in the world easy.....What Paulie is saying makes zero to no sense. And the whole for people who don't know boxing line is BS as well... When everyone else who knows boxing saying it's a toss up..Especially since both are showing their age....

The pressure fighters Floyd has "struggled" with were all bigger than him and physically stronger than him. Manny is not the bigger man, is not and inside fighter, has no jab to work his way inside and cannot fight going backward. BUT Pac does possess a pretty good lead left that can disrupt Floyd's rhythm.

Pacquiao-Mosley inspires no confidence that Pacquiao would do well vs Mayweather.
