    I think he's gonna fight Cotto or Danny Garcia next.

      I'm saying, if he's nothing special and his speed can be negated why didn't those multiple world champions do it?

        I'm a fan of Floyd's art inside the ring, but I'm also a realist. Here you have Khan, who's 28. Bigger, stronger and faster than Floyd is. Then you have Floyd, who will be 38 years old, and we all know that's the age range where father time can show up on any given night without warning... Floyd is obviously the favorite but I would not be surprised If Khan (If he comes in w/ the right mindset) pulled off the upset. I think Khan is faster and more powerful then Floyd thinks at 147 and If Floyd's timing is off, it will be a long night dealing with the rangy Khan..who can basically use the De La Hoya blue print without getting tired being that he's in his prime. And in reality All Oscar did was jab throw a bunch of wild punches and bully Floyd around and almost pulled off a SD win...

            De La Hoya blueprint? Floyd adjusted to De La Hoya.

            Khan isn't stronger than Floyd.

              Khan isn't stronger than Floyd no.

              But he has a good chance of beating him and I doubt Floyd fights him at this age, although I would favour him to knock him out.

                Khan is just doing what he's supposed to do. Trying to get the biggest and best fight out there for him

                  Well I think you're wrong, Floyd won a slit decision against Oscar and Oscar admitted he just got tired. I watched that fight many times Floyd won by jab to the gut followed by the over hand right, Oscar just couldn't capitalize. To say that Khan isn't stronger than Floyd is a joke. Khan is 28 he came into the ring at 160 which is 10-12 pounds heavier then Floyd usually is, and Khan was WAAAY stronger than Alexander to the point where Alexander couldn't even tie him up. I think it's safe to say Khan is a bit stronger then Floyd is.... Floyd is slicker than Alexander but I doubt he's much stronger....

                    Maybe not 2 years ago but Khan is clearly stronger then Floyd now at age 28. Didn't see Floyd but Maidana on the canvas and Khan is a lot stronger than he was even then...Khan would be much larger than Floyd in the ring...
