Mayweather/Khan May 3rd looks like

[Max Power]

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

Floyd by KO in total domination.

[Master]

I cannot believe how gullible some fans are by making a case for this fight. It is a joke and boxing at its worst.

They are going to carry Khan in the ring and cover him in cotton wool before the first bell in case he falls over and hits his chin and knocks himself out and thereby losing millions of dollars to the teams and hanger ons

[Max Power]

And we agree on something Master! lol

So who do you think would do better under 154 that's not with top rank ?

Better than Khan?

Well poppa Mayweather is not a fan of Khan and has publicly told people he wants his son to shut his mouth once and for all. Khan has possibly talked himself into a fight with Mayweather pretty much the same way Tarver got himself a fight with RJJ. I'm not gonna lie I have never been a fan of Khan and think he is an overrated fighter that does not deserve a fight with Money and should at least fight a real contender at Welterweight before May. Brook vs Khan should be made for the winning lotto ticket. And Garcia vs Alexander for September spot.

Lol at the dread.

Look "styles make fights" and although that boxing maxim may be overused by certain pundits at times nothing is more clear in this case. I'd wager that Khan lands more on Floyd then anyone that came before him and I'm talking clean shots. Now bookmark this thread until May and that way we can revisit it on the 4th.

Yea i agree most on your list are better than khan but against floyd khan would do better than all off them. garcia has no hope in hell of ever giving floyd a decent fight it would be a shut out. broner is supposed to be good mates with floyd and broners not as dumb as he makes out so he will stay well clear of floyd. Alvarez 2 really ? im shocked you even said his name. cotto 2 i honestly dont get what people seen in the 1st fight floyd was in complete control the whole fight. brook and alexander are the only two on your list that i think khans better than. khans a better fight to watch than all them i think he will seriously give floyd his hardest fight in years.

You are much to kind. And just because some of those guys might beat Khan with one already doing so does not mean that they would do better against Floyd then Khan would.

Brook-Let me know when he removes his nutsack from the night stand on the way to work sometime.
So far he's all show and no go. He's got no excuse not to fight Alexander although Hearn did mention venue problems right after his last fight lol. Brook should go wherever to make that fight or change his name to Special Case.From what I have seen Floyd has an easier time with him then Khan.

Alexander-Him and Floyd are never going to fight. If they did it would look a lot like the Judah fight with Devon watching Floyd rather then fighting him.

Cotto- I'm in the minority but I think Floyd let Cotto into that fight when he wanted to. He was about to go away for awhile and wanted to make a statement that he could rough it up. On a couple of occasions it almost looked like Floyd steered him to the corner. Next time it looks like the Alvarez fight.

Alvarez-Why? The money?

Broner- Yikes. Like watching Pep and Locche go at it. And lets be honest. Broner would rather sleep with Floyd then fight him.

Garcia- I think he's the most deserving but I'm not sure whether he'd be anymore successful with Floyd then Khan would be.

I'm no Khan fanboy and tbh think him a bit of a tool but I think his strengths with height, reach and speed in something other then a brawl play better against Floyd then anyone mentioned above.

I'm sure this is a business move and I doubt anybody is saying Khan deserves. Remember we can't just think with our fan caps. Showtime does have a say in this. They need to try to turn a profit so Alexander and Alvarez 2 are out. Broner keeps saying he won't fight Floyd and Garcia and his dad recently stated they weren't going to move up to 147 and that they have enough money not to rush to 147. Cotto 2 is the ideal fight. I don't know what kind of following Brook has. If you try to take in all factors on who deserves it AND is a draw AND will fight at Floyd at or around 147 then the pickings are slim. Very slim. Cotto is probably the only guy who can cover those and even that would probably have to be above 150.

Here's the kicker for me, you may of course tar and feather me out of the forum for saying this :P Khan is fast, fleet on his and throws a lot of straight punches. Floyd isn't packing TNT in his gloves either as far as the issue of khan's chin is concerned. I think Styles Make Fights and this one might be more difficult for Floyd than Cotto or Alveraz ever was due to the way Khan fights rather then those twos skills or lack there of.

That comment is what everyone who likes mayweather is worried about and theres truth in what you say, but i will counter that and mention khans last fight.

Plus, imagine khan against cotto.

Perhaps moving to 147 will be a turning point for khan and it was the low weight all along that proved to be his downfall in taking punches.

Perhaps he beats mayweather and goes on to be one of the greatest welterweights we have seen which would be great for boxing and the uk.

Perhaps virgil has toned down khan and hes not so gung ho anymore and perhaps he takes his time with his workrate.

I just still see his last fight. And even though i wish him all the sucess in the world im more annoyed that other fighters dont get the chance like bradley or garcia regardless of promoters..it stinks.

Floyd has usually fought fighters coming of wins but i think he will put his promotor hat on to fight khan as its bound to be the most money.

Either way, as a fan im hoping for garcia or bradley, and wont be impressed if its khan but i also realise khans speed is an issue for anyone...but his punch resistance is not.

[Galaxy]

The only guys Mayweather should be looking at at 147 are Bradley, Garcia, Broner (if he gets past Maidana), Pacquiao (if he gets past Rios), Thurman (if he gets past Soto Karass)

Then you have the likes of Alexander or Khan

[Smelodies]

Relative to the p4p #1 in the sport, this is a shit opponent.
