Floyd Mayweather vs. Amir Khan.

[Ron Swanson]

I don't mean to be insulting but thinking Khan has a chance or ever had a chance against Floyd is one of the dumbest things ever written.

Yes Khan has speed, speed is beaten by timing. And Khan could not beat his timing because Khan is dumb. Just like Manny didn't look so fast suddenly because he is dumb, Khan would not look so fast because he is dumb. Floyd would adjust and Khan would be completely confused and we all know Khan has no plan B. Unless you count holding as a plan.

But Mayweather had a significant reach disadvantage v Floyd whereas Khan wouldnt. Khan would have a chance to land on the outside while Pac was just flapping at thin air. Styles make fights. I still maintain of the current 147s Khan has the best chance to beat Floyd. Compare him to a guy like Garcia (who beat Khan) who has absolutely no hope of beating Floyd.

[Mark TKO]

I agree with Khans style having the best opportunity of the 147s - though you wouldn't pick Khan against the others in most cases.

Floyd doesn't have the ko power either to trouble him

But that ship has sailed thankfully.
