Mayweather/Khan May 3rd looks like

[beenKOed]

I saw it on another site so maybe its true. I don't know how I feel about this. Khan definitely doesn't deserve it so I know its a business move. I guess I don't know who should be the one to fight him at 147. Showtime is going to want to make their money so I understand it because Khan does have a following. But what does this do for Mayweather? Its purely no reward except the money. Not that that should be overlooked. I guess I would do the same. I guess I would be okay with it if they are just waiting for a developing and we get something megafight like in September. Kind of like Guerrero then Canelo. Maybe Khan then Garcia.

Has to keep working on those six fights. Floyd is working hard these days.

Not at all surprised, it's a mismatch but will be interesting to watch for a bit. Khan has as big a profile as anyone Floyd hasn't already beat below 160, Garcia could use another fight or two to build himself up and that's about all she wrote.

Not surprised either. Mismatch is a little strong my friend imo for this particular encounter if you consider the strong points of each guy. Sure Khan has a dodgy chin but so did Hearns and Ray never ran out there and tried to plug it and I dont see Floyd being overly aggressive either. I think it could resemble that fight a little over the first few rounds.

Ugh. What a fucking waste.

The P4P #1 should be fighting higher ranked opposition than Mr. Khan.

This would have been a great fight a few years back, before Khan hit his skid.

I agree that in theory it's a bad style for Floyd, but Khan is no Tommy Hearns. It doesn't look like he can take a punch from anyone these days, and he doesn't really fight smart enough to be effective for very long here imo. He's pretty inaccurate with the jab against sitting targets, Floyd will counter the hell out of him over it.

Lol I know. I just dont think its going to be the blow out that people view it as. I think Khan will have his moments. It would be funny or rather ironic if Khan because of styles gave Floyd more trouble then others did even though I see him stopped mid to late also.

I'll believe it when I see it. Floyd can't be this foolish as to think that this is an acceptable fight.

Khan would have no chance what so ever. NONE.

[Max Power]

Bum fight for Floyd. Khan has speed but nothing else.

Floyd by KO in total domination.

Yeah, and who is there left that can help carry a million plus PPV? They have to build Danny up or look up in weight. I really want to see who is going to develop in these last few fights. If Cotto beats Canelo then we have a worthy rematch available. Especially if its a clear victory.
