Carve his ass up like a turkey

I voted Khan but did not read your follow up post, stating reaction-time and foot speed.......... Khan has the quickest hands but others have better reactions/reflexes and foot speed...... Roy Jones had the best reflexes and Manny Pacquaio the quickest feet......

Khan has unbelievably bad IQ and reflexes, which makes him easy to hit.

Pernell "Sweet Pea" Whitaker was faster than Floyd Mayweather. He hardly ever absorbed any kind of punishment.

Also, he was able to do something that Money May couldn't and that was to circle the entire ring without his back not once touching the ropes for a full 12 rounds.

Floyd was pinned along the ropes several times throughout his career while getting his clock cleaned several times in the process.

That’s true but then I factor in the quality of opposition and the duration both fighters were active, I do see your case

Khans ego and his refusal to admit he had a glass jaw led to his defeats, if he kept super defense to protect his chin and maintained his fast hands he would be near unbeatable

Hand speed, foot speed, reaction time.

If other, state who and why? (Of recent years only!)

- -I'm faster than Pretty Sissy Floyd.

Stronger too and don't need TUEs to hide PED use.

MoneyFraud!

That comes down to IQ....... Khan got dragged down to his opponents level, and engaged after being hit.....

Khan with Mayweather's IQ would be unbeatable..... but he's dumb when it comes to boxing, and fights emotionally.
