Roach: Khan vs mayweather would be great!!!

[blegit]

Roach is delusional. Khan beats Malignaggi and now he is just the best thing since slice bread. If Mayweather doesn't fight Pac then he would be better off fighting Bradley or Berto. And I don't get how they keep pushing for a single elimination semifinals at 140 and their demanding the number 1 and number 2 guy fight each other first. In single elimination you seed the tournament. You can't jump to fight Maidana and then say now Bradley and Alexander have to beat each other up to face me. Maidana may be strong but they know Maidana is the easy one to outbox. Either way, I would credit Khan's heart for even testing his chin against Maidana.

I like Khan's attitude a lot you can tell he would fight anyone, but Roach seems to open his mouth a bit to often, Khan needs to settle down and sort his business out at 140 which I think he may struggle, Mayweather like I said earlier will have a 3/4 rounds of being cautious working Khan out then he would dominate him badly imo.

What does everyone else think about Khan's inside game? I think it needs alot of work, I think if he faced Bradley it could be a long night, in the inside I think Bradley will be to much.

[ruthless rocco]

this seems to me to be a ploy. suggesting that khan would be a good fight for mayweather is like offering someone platinum (pac) then giving them copper (khan). clearly its an insult to mayweather.

Mayweather wouldn't stop him that early. Maybe a late stoppage.

[Mark TKO]

Mayweather wouldn't stop him that ear seely. Maybe a late stoppage.

exactly way I see it - but this ain't gonna happen anyway

[KananKrus]

I don't see PBF Jr. knocking Khan out at all at this point in their careers. Maybe a convincing UD, yeah.

I give Amir more credit than most here, through his due dilligence in prepariing for the big fights. His moves as of late, most especially his going over to train with Freddie, hints at a maturing and emerging dominant star in this sport!

This said match is not going to happen anytime soon anyway, as others have initially pointed out, so... again, it is one of those if scenarios that we love to discuss to death here at Saddo's.

This will be a competitive match 3 years from now, after Khan has proven himself against some other notable boxers and Mayweather is on the decline. Otherwise, it's a mismatch this year and the year after.

Mayweather would stop him within 6. A terrible mismatch, Mayweather actually packs a bit of a punch and with his speed he would land and fairly often. Khan would start quick, but wilt fairly quickly. A silly matchup.

dunno about that milo

Mayweather is hardly a knockout puncher and amirs defence has improved massively

I genuinely see khan giving floyd a hell of a lot of problems, not enough to actually beat him though!!

Go ask Hatton about that

[mickel]

this is definitely a direct dig at pbf. funny though, as Khan would be beaten ala diego corrales.

[Snakey]

Mayweather wouldnt stop him early Huh? One counter right hand would put Khan to sleep, do you think he would avoid that for too long? Mosley was even hurt by floyds right and all of a sudden khan could take it for longer than 3 rounds...fucking doubt it.

[Majesty]

as open as Khan is for check left hooks does Roach want to see Khan massacred?

[Snakey]

Just to clarify, i thought Khan was very impressive against Paulie. He showed good movement,speed and combination punching. But we have to be honest with ourselves, I have nothing against Khan (im not english so I dont know about all the press he gets in england and reputation he has)....but he looked good against a guy that couldnt win. We all knew Paulie was going to get beat although alot of people were hoping for him to pull off an upset. Paulie is a light puncher with alright boxing ability and he faced a very well versed boxer in Khan who had nothing to fear. Dont forget Ricky Hatton looked great outboxing paulie and then got hammered against Pacman..why did he look great, coz he had nothing to fear.

Mayweathers power seems to get underrated around here yet everyone is happy to say that pacmans power comes from the fact hes so quick and you cant see his punches coming. Mayweather would land solidly in one round against Khan let alone over 12, what have we seen from Khan that can say he would be able to take mayweathers best for longer than one round?
