    Someone else made the point first. Khan brings more to the table than anyone Floyd has faced recently besides Canelo. He's the biggest fight for Floyd outside of Pacquiao. The Pacquiao fight isn't happening. Make the Khan fight.

    With all that said, I still don't think Khan has done a lot at welterweight. Wins over Collazo and Alexander are nice; wins over Brook and Thurman are better. He "deserves" the fight as much as Maidana or Ortiz, but that doesn't mean he's done much at welterweight and in his biggest fight at junior welterweight, he lost. If Khan beat Brook or Thurman, there would be no issue with him as an opponent.

    I think JMM was the last to figure out how to (corner) a fighter into a fight.

    When Pac refused to fight JMM right away 08-11'... Juan followed him up to LW, Pac fought one guy thereDavid Diaz) while JMM cleaned the damn division out & threatened to do so in the LWW.
    So Pac moved to 140 & fought Hatton only- moved up again fighting @ catchweight.

    If Khan understood cleaning a division out eliminates options for Floyd ---like JMM did with PAC IMO, then I agree take on Brook , Thurman or better yet-- He should have focused solely on Pac, then secure Floyd's so-called last of two fights.

    If Floyd doesn't fight Pac this May...Khan should work all day to secure that fight & Floyd IMO would be cornered to fight the winner of Khan vs Pac.

    Khan couldn't ask for a sweeter script to fight Pac & PBF.
