As soon as one of you Poms crawls onto the world stage you all start acting like you've already won it. A prime example being your football team every time the World Cup comes around. You get all hot and bothered, lose any measure of rationale, start giving yourselves pats on the back, proclaim the numerous and varied grand master plans on how you'll all conquer the world, the inevitable shit hits the fan and all of a sudden you're all despondent staring at the broken pieces slipping through your fingers. Then you get all hot and bothered, lose any measure of rationale, come up with witty and accusatory headlines, play the blame game, point your fingers and off with somebody's head. Then along comes another stooge and lo and behold you're all getting hot and bothered again.
Khan is just like your footy team. He scrapes by the skin of his teeth in the qualifiers losing to all kinds of shitcunts but suddenly by merely being in position to contest he is going to somehow miraculously outplay the best team in the world at their own game. Mayweather is going to make Khan look embarrassingly shit and then you're all going to rip into him, tell him where he went wrong, re-locate your rationale and realise he never stood a chance in the first place while all the while forgetting to ask yourselves why you thought he ever even had one. Khan only has speed because he has focused his entire game on having quick hands. He just jumps in and throws little muscle memory combinations with the only intention of landing as many points as possible without any concept of setting anything up. He doesn't feint for shit he just jumps straight in as tall as a totem pole blinding himself with his own absurd little flurries then boom he gets hit. Then he does it all over again. He doesn't even exit from a different angle. Khan is as dumb as dogshit and to top it all off he has a glass fucking jaw. He has zero chance of winning which at least means he will make the biggest money of his life sometime soon.
Khan has a weaker chin. But he is very fast.
Floyd's assessment team have obviously singled out fast fighters as being too dangerous for Floyd. So it doesn't matter whether Pac or Khan can beat Floyd or not really, fact is Floyd is not allowed to face these guys now because they have been determined to be too dangerous.
My opinion is, is that former Floyd would have flogged Khan, obviously.
But Khan is now pretty good and Floyd is totally shot.
If he nearly got wasted by Maidana who was Floyd's cherry pick of the 2, who posed no stylistic issues whatsoever for him, how the hell is he supposed to easily handle Khan now?
The only way I can envision current Floyd beating Khan now is if he lands enough clean shots that Khans chin fails him. But Floyd isn't exactly a puncher either!
"Enough with the games mate! Your messing with the Grand Master!"

Khan is far from a b level fighter.
Had a war with maidana but dropped him with a lovely body shot.
Got better with Freddie roach but with Virgil hunter he is at his peak.
Freddie doesn't know what to do with speed on a level where he can improve defense.
Virgil has show khan patience defence and better footwork.
Khan CAN be a problem for anyone.
