    I honestly would have loved to see Khan vs Mayweather a while back. Mentally Khan is stronger than Judah and we saw Judah have some decent success early on.

    would be interesting to see Mayweather fight someone with either close to his hand speed or maybe even faster.

    We've seen Mayweather vs the power punchers, swarmers, brawlers one too many times.

      Love it.
      I noticed it as well, if the criticism doesn't jive with their agenda they readily trash anybody that disparages the known ducker.

      That's one of the many reasons why I don't take them seriously. They're nothing but fan boys.

        I truly believe that Khan can give him the most problems. It'd be a shame if this fight never happens.

          Definitely agree with Paulie here. The older Mayweather is getting the more difficult it would be for him to handle quick handed fighters. The fact that he doesn't really throw combinations anymore would hamper him against fast fighters. He should just stick with the slow plodders.

            You don't have to be Nostradamus to predict this.

            3-4 years ago, Khan vs Mayweather = Cherrypick

            Right now Mayweather is ducking Khan

            May 2015, Floyd dominates Khan = Cherrypick

                Last time i remembered was floyd making a poll and Khan was number one on the official poll. Still didn't fight him.


                Its very obvious, Floyd only mentions Khans name for publicity and to impersonate that he wants to fight him.

                In reality Floyd doesn't want to fast ANY fast fighter out there.

                  So Khan went from being a cherrypick back then to now Floyd ducking him?

                  i guess after the Canelo performance to the Chino performance things change.

                    Khan was never a cherrypick, since Floyd was never willing to fight him in first place. Khan was never a serious consideration by Floyd.

                      lol, before Chino beat Broner he was going to be the opponent.
