This is why some of you are so hard to take seriously. floyd has no holes in his game. none. khan's only chance is if floyd gets even older than he's looked recently, overnight.Comment

The lack of punch output sir!
Very soft opposition paper champ that mean nothing!
Ortiz with belt = mean nothing he is weak fighter with poor chin and no heart!
The Mayweather has no prime elite fighter on resume!Comment

Floyd is a certified ATG..The man has won 11 titles in 5 divisions and 4 lineal titles in 5 divisions..the way ya'll praise fighters who have not even done a quarter of what he has done while discrediting him is disgraceful.....Comment

The man reluctant to fight the Pacquiao sir!
We shall see in future if he shall further avoid fight!
This is very bad for the legacy!Comment

I don't really buy into the Floyd has low output argument, he simply hasn't needed to throw a lot of punches. The amount he throws is dependent on the defence of the fighter that he fights, he threw somewhere near 700 punches against Cotto who is good defensively.Comment

If you punch with Khan, he's there to be hit, especially once you get into the middle rounds. Khan's instinct will always be to fight fire with fire, no matter how hard Virgil Hunter works with him.
Look back to the ODLH-Mayweather fight and merely recall watching Floyd catch-and-shoot, with his back on the ropes, and Oscar trying to rush him. Can't remember the round, but Floyd cracked Oscar with back-to-back counter rights to the jaw and buckled Oscar's knee.
Khan gets hit with that shot, his eyes gloss over and the legs stiffen up.Comment

I agree, a young Mayweather hated rangey fighters with fast combinations and decent pop but Mayweather from around 04-07 was probably in his absolute peak, physically, psychologically and in terms of skill. His footwork was better and he moved a lot more, throwing more punches too.
i think Mayweather then and now both beat Khan by close decision but younger looks better.Comment

Amir Khan couldn't even land punches on Paul McCloskey and you think his speed is gonna trouble Floyd? Khan has the most telegraphed punches in boxing. He always leads with his feet and his face before his fists and that is suicide against a fighter like Floyd. Seriously, all this hype from beating Alexander? The guy who lost to Kotelnic? got beat up by porter(who subsequently got beat up by Brook)? Who quit against Bradley and couldn't even look good against a guy like Lee Purdy?Comment
