Khan The Chosen One ?

[zhubin]

I see Khan as potentially giving Floyd more problems than Manny. Khan is bigger and longer than Manny, and very good at working behind the jab and keeping the fight at the distance he likes. Prime Floyd would use superior speed and reflexes to take over late for the win, but I'm not sure that this version of Floyd can do that.

This fight reminds me of the Paul Williams vs Winky Wright fight, where Williams used his length to keep the fight at a distance and just outwork the defensively superior Wright. Floyd won't like Khans jab, similar to his trouble with Oscars jab. Floyd is a competitor and mentally tough, so I'm in no way saying Floyd will definitely lose. Just saying that stylistically, at this point, I give Khan a better shot of scoring the upset by boximg from the outside than Mannys aggression and all offense style. Either guy vs Floyd interests me though, and I will gladly pay the money for the PPV. If Floyd fights Danny Garcia, Kell Brook, Keith Thurman...etc., however, I will skip the fight and read the result the following day.

Floyd having "problems" with Oscar's jab is one of the biggest myths in boxing history. If you have the time to watch this vid...i highly recommend it:
It's so important to slow down the fights, watch them closely, and not be influenced by overzealous commentators.

People seem to focus on "problems" Khan would give Floyd...but ignore the MAJOR problems Floyd would give Khan. I already mentioned the glaring weaknesses Khan STILL exhibits....weaknesses that are tailor made for Mayweather to exploit.
