Khan can beat Mayweather (maybe)

[IamInuit]

I agree with the thread starter that this fight is deceiving in its competitiveness although I cant take the step to suggest Khan wins. Khan is not going to have to brawl here. Nor will he have to convince himself that he will have to in camp. He can concentrate on those skills that he normally leaves in the dressing or abandons quickly in the fight. He's most likely faster then Floyd and to even entertain beating him you have to have an above average jab and he has one. The key is to establish it. Easy to say but hard to do when scrapping brawler/swarmers and the puncher/boxers that like to mix it up. For once, he can put the majority of his camp on boxing and not fighting like a dwarf in a phone booth. Of course this theory goes out the window if Floyd decides to walk him down.

Odd fight. On the one hand you have a guy that really does not deserve to be there after being beaten and at times on a heap by much lesser men and yet he has the potential to do much better against Floyd then any of his conquerors. There is some real intrigue for me style wise here regardless of what it looks like statistically. Both Pender and Turpin beat an older version of Robinson. Neither were supposed to.

Floyd is better than most of the guys he fights at pretty much every department , at least khan brings very quick hands to the table.
I see khan boxing in and out using his feet for maybe 4 rounds , then at some point he will walk onto a big counter shot and get stopped by the follow up assault.

Very similar to how I see it. I actually think he could be leading on the cards at some point in the middle rounds.
