power is nothing when you can't hit your opponent.
glass jaws get smashed by quick counterpunchers.
khan has no chance.

You brought up some valid points. Khans speed and accuracy are superb. When he is on the money he is fun to watch. That being said his impressive attributes won't translate into a win against Floyd. As far as accuracy go's Floyd is at the top of the heap. I can't say what will beat Floyd but I doubt it would be Khan.
The problem is not in Mayweather's pure punching power, but in the speed, quality and accuracy of his punches.
His speed and accuracy are top notch but when you dont have the chin/punch resistance to compliment those qualities, shit becomes less relevant..
Its kind of like Jhonny Gonzalez for instance.. he has many weapons in his arsenal and his offensive ability is superb but he's been let down numerous times because he didnt have the resistance to take as much as he dished out...
Guys like gonzalez and khan are both blessed and cursed because their exceptional offensive game allows them to stay ahead in the race but soon as they get hit with something big, the lead they built comes to a halt..
Khan, jhonny gonzalez, and terry norris have these traits..
