Comments Thread For: Khan: Mayweather Sr. Told Me I'd Beat His Son

[FlatLine]

Wait you said Floyd clinched Pac repeatedly? You are nuts to compare 78 clinches initiated by Khan vs Floyd's total of how many in the Pac fight? All boxers clinch even Pac.

Exactly so why make such a big deal out of Khan clinching? Just because it was more clinching than say an average fight - Khan got a point deducted for that so the referee took action against him already. So why make a big issue out of it when the ref already took a point off Khan anyway? That point could have cost him the fight if it was close but Collazo was completely dominated and outclassed from the first bell.

Making a ''big deal'' and giving empirical headway on a fight are two different things. If you watched the Floyd fight even from Rd 1 Floyd was trying to counter Pac like Marquez did in Rd 6 of bout 4 and he barely missed. Point being Floyd goes for what he already knows. Therefore Floyd's going to go after his chin early. You as well as many probably forget Floyd's got power in both hands. I mean seriously Khan can't beat Floyd. Floyd knows everybody's game and is no different than him sparring with someone in his gym. His IQ is ace.

Maidana went after his chin early, caught him on his chin a few times mid-fight and couldn't even drop him. That was when Khan first moved to 140 and was no longer weight drained at 135. Weight draining effects your punch resistance - happens to lots of fighters (Pacquiao himself was KOd earlier in his career because of weight draining - and KOd to the body, not to the head). Khan subsequently outgrew 140, moved to 147 and, in his own words, he feels "much stronger and not weight drained".

Floyd might catch him and hurt him, he does have power in both hands. But even if he catches him can he stop a Khan who isn't weight-drained? Maidana couldn't stop him. And if Floyd doesn't stop Khan, there's no telling who could win it on points - especially if the methodical Khan who fought Paulie, Judah and Alexander shows up. Khan's style has the potential to at least make it a close fight against Floyd.

Fight Thurman, brook, porter,Maidana and then talk,stop fighting guys who are tailor made for you who can't punch.

Isn't Mayweather just tailor-made for Khan?
pretty sure Khan out-points Floyd 9-3.. Too young, fast, and long.

The only thing that would let Floyd win is if Khan's brain fails him. Mayweather is the smartest fighter in the world. Bar-none. But if Khan stays within Floyd's strato of composure, he'll beat him because he has what it takes.

That said, it's 50-50..

You're pretty sure Khan out points him 9-3 but you also think it's 50-50?

So, you aren't sure then
