The only problem is Khan doesn't have a good chin.
Floyd will end his career with a knock out
The problem with this simplistic casual argument is that Floyd doesn't have punching power. He hasn't KO'd anyone in 8 years. And Pacquiao said he didn't feel anything from Floyd's punches. Floyd's not a power-puncher, so it's very unlikely he could pull off a KO.
Considering just how fast Khan's jabs are, it's highly likely that Khan could very well end up outboxing Mayweather at his own game, forcing Mayweather to look for a KO, something he hasn't done in 8 years. This is why Khan would be the toughest test of Mayweather's career.
Whichever way the fight goes, the winner will come out looking very good. It will enhance Mayweather's legacy, because he managed to beat a prime technical boxer who jabs a lot faster than himself, or Khan's legacy, because no one else can beat Mayweather. Khan vs Mayweather would be a very competitive fight.

He looked pretty ordinary against Peterson, Garcia and Diaz but you say he'll give Floyd problems...
How is it having Floyd has a boss? Is the pay any good?
Do you get days off or you have to post on a daily basis?
Cant he just go somewhere where the days are short for Ramadan ?
Like here in Australia, it gets dark at like 5-5:30 in June-July and the sun comes up around 7:30 so he would only have to fast for 10 hours. In fact just looked it up and in Argentina there only about 8 hrs of daylight that time of year.

give a proper reason, that logic doesnt work. Maidana not only looked ordinary but was outclassed by Devon Alexander, beat by Khan, drew with Kotelnik ect but he gave mayweather one of his hardest fights.
Mayweather will avoid Khan again I feel. Just can't see him taking the Khan fight, it goes against all behavioural trends that we've witnessed in the past. There's no question Mayweather has actively avoided facing Khan for quite some time now. Some might call it a tactical avoidance based on risk/reward but he has avoided Khan either way.
