Thread: Styles make fights?..khan

Why is it that I find amir khan the biggest threat to floyd but I don't think he is the biggest threat to anyone else?

Am I being blinded by the speed of khan or do I just think floyd is getting old and will show his age in "that" fight?

Let's talk about that old statement.. "styles make fights"...

I honestly believe that if khan fought garcia again he would get beat.

If khan fought guerrero he probably might get beat.

But against floyd he might have a chance..but wait a minute, floyd would beat everyone else in the welterweight divison..why would khan be an issue?

It really is all about styles and khan has the best style to (possibly) beat floyd but doesn't have the best style to beat anyone else..

Khan is a far better fighter with hunter but the only thing that annoys me is that khans next carefully chosen opponents will have no power and they will keep giving him these opponents until the floyd vs pac fights are over..is that fair? And what will that prove?

Help me out with your thoughts on khans path this year and whether you think its just overblown madness..

Who do you think would win Mayweather-Khan?

Floyd.

But it would be very interesting to see the styles clash.

There is another saying that I prefer to think about. "It's all about levels."
And Khan is classes below Floyd, end of!

I agree Floyd fought down to Maidana and even Cotto's level and raised it against Alavrez and Mosely after the scare 2nd round. He stepped it up and would do so against Khan. It would not be easy for Floyd because of the speed, height and reach but just as he adjusted against Oscar he would to against Khan.

Height? Khan is an inch taller than Floyd, AT MOST. I don't think it'll make any significant difference.

Floyd is actually the one with the longer reach.

I like khans style and I hope he can achieve greatness..just a shame he has to beat floyd to do it.

Khan is only getting better.
