Roach: Khan vs mayweather would be great!!!

[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.

[InTheNeutralCorner]

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.

[Gandalf]

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.

[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?

I completely agree Snakey. I mean ffs, Mayweather had Shane Mosley, who has an ATG chin, buzzed by the 7th & 8th rounds and only his chin and heart kept him up. Yet somehow Amir Khan, marked up badly by Paulie last weekend, lasts till late or takes it to the cards??

I'm one of the few Amir supporters on here, and I think he might last the first 2 rounds whilst Mayweather figures out his jab and speed, but by the 4th at latest he'd start connecting at will and I'd be amazed if Khan made it beyond 6. Paulie is elusive, but he's like Librado Andrade compared to Mayweather, and Khan lunges with his lead hooks still. This is clearly just Roach trying to stir shit up. That or he's trying to bypass fights with the best at 140 to just get straight to the money.

[Howlin Mad Missy]

as I said before, this lasts as long as Mayweather decides. 1 round.

Roach: Floyd Mayweather vs Amir Khan Would Be Great - Boxing News

I'd like to see the fight especially if it was Across sea's that would be a way for Mayweather to make more money on ppv sales and it would sell. I think Mayweather would win and it would be nice fight money wise for him and it would be interesting enough. I mean who's Mayweather gonna fight?

Crazy talk. just crazy talk. "Ok Khan. You want Mayweather ? Ok. Beat Devon Alexander, beat Tim Bradley, move up to Welterweight then Fight Margarito or Berto and IF you somehow manage get past all them guys, then you might have proved yourself worthy to face Money Mayweather"

Remember Mayweather won his 1st world title back in 98 !! This guy has been fighting elite fighters for 12 years and still kept his '0' in tact !! Khan has done NOTHING to be running his mouth like this.

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!!

Why is Roach talking up Khan vs. Mayweather?! Get your best fighter, Pac, to take the tests and we will have the biggest fight in recent times.
