I think I must be the only person who thinks that beating Marciano's record is way down on his priorities. I think his primary concern is to be seen as one of or THE Greatest of all time. his thinking probably is " I never beat Marciano's record, but I'm Unquestionably better, so wtf."
His main objective is to be undefeated and I reckon he realises that he's not quite what he was and he will retire when he said at the end of next year. if he lost that "0" his career would be viewed very differently and I don't think he'll risk that.
as for this Khan business, if it's about speed, put Usain Bolt in there. It's about levels, and Khan's "stay busy policy" of fighting potatoes for the last 3 years doesn't put him at this level, end of.

Alot of sense in this post.^^

Floyds rematch with maidana was the first fight that bored me and I wasnt too impressed with him running in the last round.

Perhaps it was maidanas power and style that had floyd ruffled coupled with his age.

Perhaps he will bounce back in the next fight but it annoys me that golden boy will give khan an easy next fight so he looks good again.

Im started to get a bit sick of the welterweight divison and really appreciate ward and froch wanting to fight the best of the best!

Only now Floyd has bore you?

Only now you want to see the 2 best welterweights fight?

If he wanna be healthy, he should retired a few years ago, nowadays he just get punished in the head to often, he's gonna talk like tyson if he keeps getting hit. He got the money, he got a good record, even tho he didn't hit 50-0 its still good and no worth taking a few more punches to the head! After all its just a game

Make no mistake he want the 50 wins and he will cash in after it.

Some find floyds fights boring but I see all his fights as pure art.

Floyd is letting leonard ellerbe and a few others go before his next fight so hopefully he will be back to his best.

Khan needs a big win at 147 to get floyd.

Bob arum will never be the b side to floyd no matter what he says..
