We buy most ppv event's but I rather see Floyd fight someone more credible then Khan and of course Manny for his last two fights. But then yet again we are talking about "Health comes first" Maywether so you guys might get your wish and Floyd cherry picks Khan
    Quantity, quality and variety.

    Mosley for whatever reason, be it age, intimidation, Floyd... who knows, but Mosley's combinations were extremely limited.

    The fact that he was able to put Floyd on ***** street with a simple feint jab to the body, followed up with a power straight to Floyd's chin, in comparison to the absolute demolition combination job Khan served to Malignaggi is sufficient grounds to accuse Floyd of possibly ducking Amir Khan.

      No its not, not even close. Khan doesn't know even know how to feint. Once he lets go of those punches there's no coming back for Khan, he commits too much in those punches that he is left wide open, off balance and an easy target to get countered. Other than the Paulie fight he has not been able to put together those kind of punches together on a decent fighter. And when he did try to use his "combinations" he got countered. Peterson was able to do it, Garcia timed and countered him well and even Diaz was able to counter him. What they need to teach Khan is to throw the simple one two's, that would make it harder for opponents to catch him.

        The left hook Garcia threw that put Khan on ***** street required a risk Mayweather would simply not take.

        Put Floyd in the same scenario Garcia was in when he dropped Khan and we would have a radically different result.

        Khan is a silver medallist. I think he knows enough about how to throw one twos. It is the 3's and 4'5 and 5's that make him a pain in the ass for Mayweather.

        I am logging off now. Thank you for the interesting discussion. Peace.

          That's because Floyd would never need to risk anything with someone like Khan. He didn't need to risk anything when he fought Maidana even when Maidana had him in the ropes.

          Regardless if that was Floyd or not when Garcia threw the GARSH the results would be the same, Khan going down and doing the Bambi dance. You guys make it seem like Floyd doesn't have a good punch. He hurt Cotto, Guerrero who have a better chin than Khan.



          Any who I'm off to bed. Good talking to you

                Floyd Mayweather's appearances are motivated 99% on business and 1% on his health. If you can acknowledge that, then I can talk to you about Mayweathers boxing.

                  We talked about Floyd's choices (thread about this ) - Alvarez, Cotto. Ortiz, Mosley.Question - were fast Bradley and fast Khan a better (and possible) option for Floyd?(2010-2013)Ahhh?

                    Floyd, Floyd, Floyd do you clowns eat/sleep/drink/and wack off with Floyd on y'all minds. The guy has a better resume than that redhead Cindanelo as well as that test ducking juicer Pacroid. When was Pacroid's last true challenge? As for Cindanelo he's be ok ng spoon feed bums while GBP is buying off judges and refs. Just once it would be refreshing to wake up and read something positive about the man. All the hate is because of the Money Man image that has paid off for him like a good business man would have done. Skill wise there's no one out there now even at his age that can out think him in or out the ring when it comes to boxing. I say enjoy it while it last because after Floyd we're going to see some of the worst judged fight ever in the sport of boxing jn order to get a new top dog...

                      His last fight, you f**king moron of epic and biblical proportions. Tim Bradley was a unanimous top 5 pound for pounder. Gotdamn man we have more ******s infiltrating this website than any other website on the internet, I swear.
