    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.

    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

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