WhodatWhoadi
Naw
Didn't see that coming
Khan is a very dangerous fight for Floyd. probably the most dangerous out there bar none....around that weight class. Khan just wants to flurry and hold. Or flurry and move. That style could work against Floyd NOW because Floyd has definitely slowed down. I think its a bad fight to make for Floyd. I do think Floyd would end up out-boxing him, but it could be a huge gamble the way Khan likes to steal rounds. As long as he is not in with a puncher.....he has a chance of doing what he did tonight. Its funny, but he'd probably lose to Thurman, Maidana, Porter, maybe Brook, but I could see him doing similar to Brook. He'd absolutely dominate Broner unless he got caught with something. Broner had issues with Paulie's speed and he just dont move his hands enough...and his defense is too vulnerable for that style. I dont think he could beat Bradley like that though. I am not saying Khan is better than any of those guys but that style is troublesome. He is almost fighting a 12 round amateur style. if Khan had a great chin, he would be a great fighter. he doesnt....so he has to have the precise style match up.
one thing about fast fighters I learned from back watching SRL.....they always have problems with other fast fighters. for Khan its pretty much Mayweather or bust.

based off devon alexander lol
devon alexander isn't in floyd's league
floyd can fight going backwards and fowards
Floyd Mayweather has longer each by one inch so he won't have that luxury like he did over devon
amir kahn gonna get ass whipped, you are living in a fanatsy world
I knew devon would lose this fight, but I didn't expect him to look this bad
didnt i say i thought about this even b4 the alexander fight....u gotta read
and if floyd was so great off his backfoot, then why to he end up against the ropes so easily?
KT did struggle.....he was uncomfortable out there....he won because he was a Superior boxer and ol boy couldn't get off.....but what happens when he face a clever pressure fighter that he get punches off and close the distance? that guy couldn't get off but he had many skills that ppl wont notice, he made that fight difficult ....he did more then cut the ring off....he was timing keith when he was in range to let his hands go.....KT fought smart and adjusted....that feinting took alway KT confidence, it had him 2nd guessing himself...his body language change through the fight.....he was the prey by the 12th
what do you mean end up on the ropes so easily give some examples
kahn would get worst than zab judah, after a couple rounds and he figures out his timing, Devon figured out his timing in this fight, he doesn't throw enough punches, and he's not as good as counter puncher as floyd, i don't even know how Kahn got so damaged bradley barely hit him, floyd will punish kahn
floyd isnt the type of counter puncher that time fighters like a danny garcia or marquez....hes a defensive counter puncher....hes not gonna take a shot to give a shot
all kahn gotta do is keep a long safe distance....throw flurries, us that sharp long jab and move away and occasionally clinch after the flurries....and steal rounds....floyd is all about defense first...so keep him defensive and dont let him get off...
turn floyd into a stalker...something he never had to be, and make him fight @ a pace hes not used to....plus floyd is 37 and kahn got Virgil hunter....a cat that have a high boxing IQ
all kahn gotta do is stay discipline and not leave himself open after combos....
floyd aint invincible ...he just sell that bullshyt to causal fans....greater fighter then Floyd lost, so why cant he?
