Dominating Collazo and Devon, Khan is suddenly the one to beat Floyd ? ;D
I like Khan but he is the poor man version of Pacquiao and that is a compliment.
I really think Maidana roughs him up in a rematch, and a handful of others that can beat him.
Am I missing something cause I'm just not sold on him beating Floyd?
yes you are missing a lot

I can see him causing some trouble but I don't see him winning at all. Big difference.Quote:

Again I doubt the fight will ever happen but thats how Ive always seen it go. Khan wins early rounds and Floyd comes back and wins a late decision. Decision could go either way thoughQuote:

Khan brings speed and punching in bunches, Floyd may slip one or two but if Khan is shooting
out 5 or 6 punch combos, some are going to land.
Floyd likes to fight at Floyd pace, you make him work and sustained accurate pressure is something
Khan could do you never no.
Nah mate, you're not missing anything. When I saw the title of the thread, I thought somebody else was gonna blow sunshine up Khan's ass because he beat a guy who isn't even top 10 and very gun shy. Just how Khan likes them.Quote:

Keep him away from heavy punchers and hes smiling.
I think khan has got a chin but just had the wrong strategy and trainer at the time.Quote:

Khan is a problem for any welter weight and has carried up his speed to 147 but left his chin 140.
I just think one more win at 147 completely cements khans position at the weightclass and floyd or manny can not or will not ignore him.
