Asked and answered.
Yes.
Anythings possible.
I like khan and his style and it could be a problem for floyd but then it depends what floyd turns up.
Its crunch time and the pressure is on floyd to make a massive fight next year if canelo or cotto take that spot..its going to be very interesting!
Well floyds obviously the better boxer but saying that I can see khan out working floyd and stealing rounds and takeing the UD. I think it could just be perfect timing for khan if they fight in 2015
Nope
I don't believe he can. He has sensational speed but he doesn't have the ring intelligence to match Floyd.
A better question might be who has Floyd had to outbox? I know I know everyone but who are the fighters who attempted to outbox him not outfight him? Who kept his back foot forward?

He overwhelmed Collazo and Alexander, they were never in the fight. I think that gets him in the queue as speed is going to be the thing that beats Floyd, in my opinion.
Judah and to an extent cottoQuote:

It's funny how much people are fooled by speed.
So true! Speed can fool anyone.😉Quote:

And I've premised most of my feelings on this matchup (that will never happen) on that very point.Quote:

Totally. Quality boxing but head wanders while wound as tight as a spring. I'd watch though.Quote:

Floyd and khan would be a great boxing match.
Khan's youth---
YOung Lion beats Old Lion
Amir beats Richard
Floyd MAyweather is a shot fighter.
Of course Khan could outbox Floyd.
Khan has revealed too much now and has shot himself in the foot.
He will never get a fight with Floyd now.
Best thing for Khan to do now, is take a fight, lose on purpose, THEN call out Mayweather. Then bring out the REAL Amir Khan. Problem solved! :cool:
Hey! Keep your pea sized brain in the heavy weight division where it belongs.Quote:

Aladdin sucks dude..
Maybe it's just me, but I don't see Khan as some huge threat to Floyd.
I hear people talk about Khan's height. He's taller than Floyd by an inch AT MOST.
I also hear about his reach. Floyd is actually the one with the longer reach.
Other than speed, Khan has nothing to offer Floyd.
Yea khan has absolutely nothing for Floyd, he is a non threat...
Amir khan is B level fighter..
Floyd will raise his game and adjust after 4 rounds to win the next 7. Floyd has the gears and I hate the little shit for it.
Anyway it would be worse if Khan beat him. His head will swell up even bigger than it already is that they would not allow him back into the country.
I'd hesitate to call anyone who made Alexander look terrible, 'B level'. Alexander was stymied, shutdown, shutout, spanked, schooled, and left with his head hanging.Quote:

Then you get all hot and bothered, lose any measure of rationale, come up with witty and accusatory headlines, play the blame game, point your fingers and off with somebody's head. Then along comes another stooge and lo and behold you're all getting hot and bothered again.
Khan is just like your footy team. He scrapes by the skin of his teeth in the qualifiers losing to all kinds of shitcunts but suddenly by merely being in position to contest he is going to somehow miraculously outplay the best team in the world at their own game. Mayweather is going to make Khan look embarrassingly shit and then you're all going to rip into him, tell him where he went wrong, re-locate your rationale and realise he never stood a chance in the first place while all the while forgetting to ask yourselves why you thought he ever even had one. Khan only has speed because he has focused his entire game on having quick hands. He just jumps in and throws little muscle memory combinations with the only intention of landing as many points as possible without any concept of setting anything up. He doesn't feint for shit he just jumps straight in as tall as a totem pole blinding himself with his own absurd little flurries then boom he gets hit. Then he does it all over again. He doesn't even exit from a different angle. Khan is as dumb as dogshit and to top it all off he has a glass fucking jaw. He has zero chance of winning which at least means he will make the biggest money of his life sometime soon.
Khan has a weaker chin. But he is very fast.
Floyd's assessment team have obviously singled out fast fighters as being too dangerous for Floyd. So it doesn't matter whether Pac or Khan can beat Floyd or not really, fact is Floyd is not allowed to face these guys now because they have been determined to be too dangerous.
My opinion is, is that former Floyd would have flogged Khan, obviously.
But Khan is now pretty good and Floyd is totally shot.
If he nearly got wasted by Maidana who was Floyd's cherry pick of the 2, who posed no stylistic issues whatsoever for him, how the hell is he supposed to easily handle Khan now?
The only way I can envision current Floyd beating Khan now is if he lands enough clean shots that Khans chin fails him. But Floyd isn't exactly a puncher either!
Khan is far from a b level fighter.Quote:

Got better with Freddie roach but with Virgil hunter he is at his peak.
Freddie doesn't know what to do with speed on a level where he can improve defense.
Virgil has show khan patience defence and better footwork.
Khan CAN be a problem for anyone.
Forgive me, but what does that mean? :confused:Quote:
