Yep he sure is...
Khan's recent showings has unfortunately excluded him from ever getting a fight with Floyd now for the rest of his career.
He now joins Manny in the club of untouchables.
Bumming himself the rest of the way to 50-0 now...
Absolutely pathetic!

I would not go as far as to say he is afraid Khan. Floyd fought Canelo at nearly the light middle limit and beat him. That was much harder thing to do than fighting Khan. If somehow Amir won the fight it would be more to do with Floyd aging than Khan being overall better. Just the right style, place and time. The Floyd that beat Canelo wipes out Khan.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Floyds not afraid of khan or any other fighter. I think it's just a case of all risk no reward, if he beats khan he gets very little credit for it.
How many of these stupid fucking threads are people going to keep rehashing?!
You should have been semen on a bed sheet, seriously! Retard.
Floyd doesn't care about credit, that's why he takes easy fights. All risk, No reward? What risks does Floyd take? Khan would be a risk but with A HIGH reward for Floyd..... Money!
Floyd cares about money and a fight with Khan right now would generate as much as Floyd vs Pac, or at least push towards the kind of numbers that fight would do.
The British fans generally don't give a shit about Floyd and I'd guess that 50% of average guys who don't watch boxing, don't even know who he is over here. But these are the same people that would buy an Amir Khan fight vs any opponent.
Floyd vs Khan is the LOGICAL next move, but Floyd wants none of it, Floyd NEVER picks the fighters he should fight, he always picks someone lesser who he can beat with ease.
I mean that, because so many times I have thought "Great now it's gotta be Floyd vs Whoever" and never once has his next fight been against what I and the general public believed was the best opponent.

You say tomato,
‘n I say …… it correctly.
Yes, that is true. Canelo was a masterful display from Floyd of clowning the strongest fighter of his career.
But I think Floyd's team ran an analysis on Alvarez and knew they could use Money's much sharper speed and reflexes to play the matador with him.
Vs Khan, this is not really such an advantage. Only Khan's chin is an iffy factor, not something Floyd can be assured about.
Floyd seems to have the most difficult issues with faster/aggressive fighters.
At limit division boxing... Speed kills!

floyd is dyolf
Canelo was coming off a fight where he looked shit against Trout. Giving Canelos struggles with Trout it was clear his style would suit Floyd. The only thing that could have caused Floyd trouble in that fight was a big strength difference but given the extra weight he had to cut Floyd was taken a pretty low risk. Khans hand speed is like nothing Floyd has ever faced and is something he would find very hard to prepare for.
This does seem to be the concsses among a lot of boxing fans. I think Floyd is wary of a home who poses a threat to his 0. Having said that I don't think Khan would pose much of a problem for Floyd. The first three rounds will probably have people thinking Khan will take it but after that Floyd would probably have him timed and figured out. I do think Floyd would be on his bike (via Lance Armstrong) but that is status quo as of late.Still it's a fight I used to scoff at but now I would probably pay for it, especially if there is a great undergrad line up as Floyd's team usually puts on. If he isn't afraid as everyone says I'd like to see it his next fight, I've lost hope in the Manny fight happen.
