You can't deny the fact that Mayweather ducked Khan.

It's true. Floyd and Pac were so afraid of Khan they use to hide in a closet holding each other and crying:
Floyd- I sho' is scurred, Manny!
Pac- Oh Froyd, prease no ret go! I soir pants!
Khan is the most avoided boxer in history. The lower weight classes are still in existence only because it gives fighters an excuse not to fight him.

I don't know why he didn't fight Khan but I can't imagine he ducked him out of worrying about losing to him. I think Mayweather could be very sick with a bad case of the flu and still get out of his sick bed and easily knock out Khan. The difference in skills, ring smarts, toughness and stamina is as wide as the grand canyon. The Maidana who fought Mayweather was a much better fighter than the Maidana who lost to Khan. Maidana had tried for years to get a rematch with Khan to no avail. I think Maidana would have KOed Khan in a rematch. Khan went life and death with mediocre Diaz and just barely won in England. His chances of beating Mayweather are zero in my opinion and I am not a big Mayweather fan. I just know he was very good and much better than any version of Khan.

He did. Khan won Floyd's next opponent poll & beside that had a practically identical resume to Maidana plus had beaten Maidana.
Floyd had difficult moments with fast guys, never with guys trying to knock him out. Even mediocre fast guys like judah had moments on floyd. It was a wise decision to use Broner's loss to his advantage & take the more predictable opponent in Maidana.

I for one Im glad Floyd fought maidana. Maidana fought everybody and had a tougher life. Khan there banking on him getting KO against a breidis presscott and losing to Garcia then waiting for a big money fight off of his name. Money May went with the one who earned and deserved it not begged for it.

Also, Maidana was a champion, which made the Mayweather vs Maidana fight a unification fight. Khan was a nobody with no belt or status at welterweight.
Finally, there FOUR Polls set up. Maidana WON THREE of those polls and Khan only won ONE, and only because he rallied his twitter/facebook fans to vote for him.
Khan didn't deserve shieeet, and no one ducked him.
Khan still has Chris Algieri issues.
Again no one claimed Khan deserve anything, going by the thread and looking at things objectively, yes I thought Mayweather avoided him. Trying to claim Khan is a nobody isn’t going to change that am afraid lol.

Floyd saw Khan as being too problematic. Khans speed would have given him a chance in the fight and Floyd knew it. If he failed to KO him, there was a damn good chance he'd lose on the cards.
But hey, we are talking about the guy who cherry-picked for most of his career. So what's new.
