But lets look a little closer to the fight (If ever it does happen).
We all know that Mayweather is the silk in the cotton drawer, he is the kingpin of his division... I don't think there is much point in naming his positives and negatives.... He is the man to beat.
Amir Khan - What does he bring to the table....?
Many boxing buffs would deem him as the chinless wonder, a sacrificial offering, or as Floyd would say - ''Easy Work''
Yet, Khan would be one of the biggest tests for Mayweather to date - And here's why:
1) Speed - Mayweather has the advantage of speed over nearly everybody he fights. With Khan, it's different. Khan can match him, and out 'speed' him all day... Mayweather is 36yrs, Khan is ten years younger....
2) Age - All the boxing greats of era's gone by, have always succumbed to 'Old Father Time'... Floyd is pushing his luck if he thinks he can win another five fights at the very top level.
3) Punching Power - Khan has trouble with big punchers.. Mayweather is not a big hitter.. None of his recent opponents have ever stated that they were hurt by him.. They just couldn't land anything on him.
4) Aggression - If Khan can match Mayweather for speed, we are in for a treat... Khan is notorious for slugging it out, going toe to toe is where he is most comfortable, you have to Knock Khan out to stop him coming after you..
5) Motivation - Khan never turns up to fights for the paycheck...... A lot of Mayweathers opponents did!
Khan Speed can give Mayweather problems and if Khan had a chin that was as easy to break as glass he could win. However the later is not true the guy will get knocked out in 10
Once again people confusing excitement and power and speed for skill.
Getting a knockout is not skill, it's how you get the knock out. Marquez knocking out Pacquiao, that was skill. He was wobbled but he relaxed and timed Pacquiao for the perfect over hand right. What Khan did against Judah was a good body shot, but Judah just quit because he wasn't even that hurt.
His speed is not skill either, because lots of fighters have speed.
He does not have skill, he is all speed. Let's say you are right and he does have skill. You think his skills are anywhere near the level of Mayweather's?
NO, so skills won't win him that fight. He wants to box then he will be outboxed and if he decides to just make it a brawl he would likely be hurt. it's easy to use your speed against someone who is easy to hit but Mayweather isn't easy to hit. Amir Khan also has poor accuracy.
Easy win for floyd mayweather jr...He would let khan box him for atleast round 5 just to make the fight more exciting and knock him out...Floyd is a sharp shooter, khan has the worst chin in boxing history...He aint good in defense either, so sad to say even if im a fan of amir, this is a given fact that this fight will end by KO...Floyd beat khan by KO...
Eddie F is correct...What khan brings to the table...But damn man...I wish khan has the chin...
Alot of people question this fight cause Khan has no chin its very weak Khan would have to fight very smart in alot of guys say im fight smart again mayweather in then when mayweather tags them they start getting out there gameplan so it will be the same here Khan would have to fight smart if he try in make it a brawl like pacquiao does he will be knocked out by the 3rd round mayweather will catch him clean in prolly have him out cold like pacman.
mayweather has the best defense and style... nobody can outbox mayweather... and khan beside having a glass chin, will try to box mayweather so of course he will fail, cuz obviously his style is inferior.... to beat floyd, you only dont need speed, and big punches, you need to be durable like cotto to sacrifice gettin hit so you can catch and trap mayweather....
floyd wont get hit.... while khan, he will get hit, a lot cuz floyd has fast hands and accurate punches
khan's weak chin will be a target all night and floyd will hit it bullseye... end of the fight, probably in the middle rounds....MAN THIS IS BORING, when will floyd's greatness ever get tested?????
I want Khan to win but mayweather is likely to win.
Hahahah.....Mayweather for sure. He'll neutralize that speed of Khan. Mayweather by TKO.
Mayweather vs Khan i think its a good fight cause stlyes make fights in khan is just as quick or probly quicker then mayweather.
I think this fight can go several ways
if Khan gets careless in dont pick his shots right 5 rounds ko Mayweather win
if khan Jabs in combinate with his punches he can win UD 12 Rds
Khan got skills he just have a weak chin
when he fought Zab Judah he K'ods him K'od Malignaggi in he beat Maidana
He was Wopping the crab out of Garcia in Peterson the first 3 rds
In then got Careless like he always does in start throwing wild fast punches
in then he got knocked out by Garcia by leaping in
in he got wobbled a couple times by peterson for getting careless
So i think this Fight will be Good for september 14 in
What ya think who wins this fight if its official in happens.
