I'll say it yet again - Khan can beat Mayweather (includes Last nights fight in full)

Superb stuff from Amir Khan and he just looks better and better everytime under Hunters guide for me,

Those 1-2's he was firing off were done with crazy speed, his footwork and balance were tip top and he took a few decent shots along the way that didn't seem to bother him at all.

Totally outclassed Alexander who was just chasing shadows all night.

Khan came into the fight at Middleweight after rehydrating and added about 13 pounds back on and still carried devastating speed and looked very fresh faced and healthy and has zero stamina issues whatsoever, looked like he could go another 5 rounds at that pace.

Floyd simply can't fight at that pace and would have to knock him out to win and after seeing that last night i'd even have Khan as favourite.

He might have even fucked that fight up for himself because i don't think Floyd can or wants to go against someone that physically fit/busy and fast at this stage of his career.

Khan on points for me.

Props to Virgil Hunter too, i like the no Bullshit way he handles Khan and the fact he was still verbally tearing into him even after the fight.

Khan really has matured as a fighter and looked seriously seriously good last night and seems to have put the silly mistakes behind him and gets out of range faster than he used to now.

Well done Amir Khan you did England and yourself proud :cool:


Khan v Alexander - full fight
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9O3YjijWCeg

I cant argue with khans performance and 2015 will be a great year for boxing.

Khan is a great boxer but I would love to see him fight a thurman or brook before mayweather..then there will be no doubt from anyone that he deserves the fight.

I hope floyd fights PAC or khan in May don't even care what 1 he fights as long as it's 1 of them 2

Yeah I think Khan has a good chance of belting Mayweather too.

And that is why Mayweather will NEVER make this fight anymore, not under any circumstances!

Unfortunately for Khan, he has joined the "Club of too dangerous" now along with Manny.

Floyd is a spent force now anyway. A champion on paper only. He will finish his career by bumming himself the rest of the way to 50-0, and retire having ripped the entire boxing world off of the biggest fight in history in even more disgraceful fashion than did Riddick Bowe.

Pathetic!

ABSOLUTELY pathetic! LOL

I wouldn't cunt him off so freely, this is Mayweather who is one of the greatest fighters the sport has ever seen.

No One can argue that fact, just look at who he's beaten in his career over the years.

Just think Khan would be catching him at exactly the right time if they met.

I think Khan v Pac is a way more entertaining fight anyway if i'm honest.

The Welterweight division has some amazing fights that can happen in 2015

Agreed Smash. Khan can outpoint him. Maybe PBF at 38 has every right to duck this style of fighter. Only a decent puncher beats Khan on last night's performance and that isn't Floyd.

Crazy isn't it really. I would honestly pick Khan now against Floyd yet would pick Brook to beat Khan and Maidana too if they rematched. Both would be schooled by PBF.


If ever conclusive proof was needed that styles make fights then this is it !

Styles certainly do make fights mate and yeah i agree Brook v Khan is even more interesting now but timing wise what does Khan do next?

Khans always gonna have a mega fight with Brook in the bank so i think he'll wanna go after Floyd/Pac first - makes sense and i agree that Brook v Khan is a pick em but i'd favour Khan after last night if i'm honest purely because he's the better boxer but Brook can punch so it really is 50-50 for me that one.

He could beat Mayweather, but he won't get the chance. Mayweather is going to fight Pacquiao and then a Cotto rematch for the MW title.

Does anyone feel that they have made amir avoid big punchers?

Khan under virgil in my opinion is a better defensive fighter and improving.

I dont think khan will have an issue with his chin under virgil if he stays calm.

Without question. He has two fights at WW and both were against non-punchers.

Lets see him in there with One Time Thurman before we started crowning this guy the king of the WWs and potential Floyd opponent.

If its not one of them its pretty clear he doesnt want to fight a fast fighter again. My guess is he will try to get Danny Garcia. At Welter

Not really many big punchers in the division to be honest. He beat Maidana and apart from him there aint any power houses at welter. Floyd, Marquez, Bradley, Guerrero, Brook aint hard hitters. Thurman and maybe Pac are the only big punchers and hes looking to get in with Pac. Id love to see him fight Thurman but I dont think it makes sense for him now that hes virtually guaranteed a big payday against either Floyd in Vegas or Brook in London.

I still think he is the most likely to beat Floyd. I think he has a better chance of beating Floyd then Pac does. Ive said it for years. Really hope it happens.

As I said in another thread if Pac v Floyd can happen then it has to be May - they owe us it even if they are serving up a watered down version of what might have been a few years ago. Khan and any potential Mayweather opponent, who isn't retarded, has to understand that that fight gets priority.

After that maybe Khan gets the winner - but potentially only does so if it's Pac.

So Khan would have to take a fight beforehand and theres no way he'll take a risky one. Paulie Malignaggi again ??

There's also the question of Ramadan. Mayweather usually fights mid September which is not viable for Khan straight after fasting - all the excuse PBF needs to pick someone else if he beats Pac.

I am pretty ignorant when it comes to religion. Any muslims on the board ? Is it a no no to skip Ramadan ??

I understand what you are saying and it's hard to argue with you, so I'll just say, if Khan can stay focused the way he was against Alexander he'll be very hard to beat until he slows down due to age.
I want him to fight Floyd, piss on the other guys. Alexander was easy for Khan and does not measure up to Floyd in any way I can see. Khan wants the best, that's Floyd and where the big money is too.

Did I tell you how much I enjoyed seeing Alexander getting thumped for 12 rounds? It was righteous payback for that farce Alexander and Bailey tried to pass off as a championship fight. Do you think Khan would be interested in beating Bailey's ass for 10 or 12 rounds? Lol

You guys are getting carried away. Khan beating Floyd?

Devon is many levels below PBF and has no business at 147.

Floyd doesn't knock dudes out but always has enough pop to lower opponents work rate.

A focus Ortiz beats Khan. Maidana beats Khan. Garcia beats Khan. Bradley beats Khan. Marquez beats Khan.

Is it just me, or did Khan lunge a lot last night?

He also still looked hittable, and still threw shoeshine punches.

Probably the old freddie roach khan takes an L to the above but this khan is different.

Garcia, marquez and possibly the new maidana would bully khan into submission but under virgil hunter khan is showing great change.

I though khan didn't dive in as much as he has in the past and looked better for it, most times his feet were planted and under him before exchanging

I wouldn't mind seeing khan vs Garcia 2 I would like khan to win also think he beats Ortiz and probably Marquez but think maidana stops khan and Bradley is a toss up for me 50/50

Khans already put Maidana on his ass in 1 round and Maidana was pretty much saved by the bell, then he got careless and took everything Maidana had and still beat him.

From what i saw last night Amir would destroy him and very handily too :cool:

Garcia will do everything he can to avoid Khan. He was getting schooled and just got lucky. He wouldnt land a shot like that on Khan again.

Im not saying hes going to beat Mayweather Im just saying he has a great chance of winning. I give Khan a 33% chance of winning. I gave Maidana about a 10% chance and would give Pac a 25-30% chance. Floyd is still the fav.

I agree with this but I disagree about garcia.

Garcia was improving in the khan fight and the rematch would be interesting..lucky punches dont exist.

I don't know what you guys see but Maidana clearly improved 10x more than Khan.

Maidana took Floyd to 24 rounds. Enough said.

Everyone Floyd fights goes 12 rounds with him whats special about that? He also lost every round in the rematch. He beat a blown up Broner who struggled with Emmanuel Taylor and Carlos Maidana who are nothing special. Devon won every round against Maidana and Khan won every round against Devon. So basically Maidana has improved because he lost to Floyd?

Khan was brilliant but he always is against boxers. I think he was better than ever but he has looked brilliant in the past against non-roughhouse guys. Which means I'd give him more chance of beating Floyd than Matthysse. Mad. Styles. Boxing.

Floyd last ko was ortiz and ortiz suffers from duran syndrome and pretty much gave up when he was being outclassed.

12 rounds is normal for floyd so its not fair to discredit khans win over maidana just because floyd decided to rematch him.

Khan knocked down maidana and had no issues with his chin in that fight.

Styles make fight and the new mma maidana made it difficult for floyd but khans win deserves just as much credit.

Maidana rough up Floyd, forcing a rematch. Nobody does that. That is more than anything Khan has accomplished.

I've consumed a substantial amount of Pinot Grigio today - don't make me kill you, young man. Ortiz and Duran don't belong in the same breath. Fact.

It's funny how people pretend Khan hasn't already beaten Maidana.
And actually I'd back him to do it better if they were to fight again.

I wish I was young.

The point was referring to the fact that floyd goes the 12 rounds and doesnt have a ko ratio like everyone else and his last ko was against ortiz.

Ortiz who can be a good fighter has a tendancy to quit or give up exactly like duran did.

We all have our bad days at the office but thats as bad as it gets in the boxing world..

Don't think he beats him but he was impressive. He kept a cool head and stayed focused and vs Alexander that's not always easy. Think this fight is more realistic than a Bradley or Thurman fight.

Floyd's jab will leave Khan dumbfounded. He looked great against Devon but let's not get carried away

Khan escaping Maidana in the last round to get a W means nothing now. Maidana has taken Floyd into deep waters.

What is your logic? Khan beat Maidana and Devon he can suddenly beat Floyd ???

This is Floyd we are talking about and on the other hand, this is Khan we are talking about lol
