    What was Khan doing in the past couple of years? Getting KO'd by Garcia? Going life and death with shot Julio Diaz?
    It goes back to form. Khan doesn't consistently fight at his best, it happens to many boxers for various physical and/or psychological reasons. Even Floyd wasn't at his best in the Maidana, Cotto, Castillo, Judah fights.

    I didn't see the same Khan against Garcia, Diaz, Algieri as I did against Paulie, Judah, Maidana, Collazo, Alexander. Just like I didn't see the same Floyd against those fighters mentioned.

    Boxers form can vary from fight to fight but Floyd avoided the best version of Khan which has shown up in past fights (but not all fights).

    That's why I think if Khan turns up off-form, he won't have much of a shot against Floyd but if he's on-form it's a competitive fight.

      When the **** did Floyd avoid Khan? Khan hadn't done anything to deserve a shot at him in 2012-2013.

        good post but dont fully agree, he is a bit off track right now
        I think the amir khan who was knocked out by Garcia would beat Floyd

          When he held a poll on his own website on who he should fight next and Khan won.

            Then who is? If you're thinking Brook or Froch, then those guys aren't even from the north west of England.

              That was while Khan was still under him, funny how he changed his tune soon as Khan left him

              and even folks who say Khan cant beat Floyd, many agree Khan is still a pontential tough fight for Floyd

              Dont be surprized if Khan and Floyd do ever fight, it's not going to be a walk in the park like some of u make it out to be.
              Ok so lets acknowledge Khans competition level now..it will be a walk in the park for Floyd. Even if we apply the notion that stylez make fights, Floyd looks superb against high quality opponents while Khan makes 2nd tier fighters look kovalev. Floyd wins.

                Naseem been seeing risks since he took that L to Barrera.

                And he's taking some L...b's.. straight to the chin, neck and stomach.

                  That doesnt matter, bar Prescott, nobody has had a easy night against Khan, no matter what level the comp was at, it's always a tough fight. Even Danny Garcia had to dig deep.

                  Khans ofcourse is always one punch away from a loss, but if that punch never comes, u best believe u will have to fight hard as u can to compete with him

                    Mayweather obviously saw the threat from Manny Pacquaio, lost (really) and then got given the win anyway!

                    No doubt helped out by some "WELL INVESTED MONEY"

                    I've never seen a bigger gift decision since those of Muhammad Ali!
                    you sound plum ****** and have to be a troll

                      Even with Algieri the guy is obviously pretty good when he isn't drained out of his balls and has a boxing trainer instead of a Shaolin monk.

                      My opinion is supported by how Algieri won a World title in 20 fights as if he was a blue chip prospect even though he converted to boxing in his 20s with 0 amateur exp and in kickboxing you barely use your hands, so that's hardly any exp . For someone learning on the job competing in a competitive weight class that is pretty damn good.

                      Algieri fight showed us Khan can make adjustments because he was clearly expecting an Algieri on back foot.
