    I don't really like boxing that much these days, corrupt from the top down. No doubts about it. Used to live it when the Heavyweights dominated.

    Khan boxed well last night I think he can and will hurt Mayweather if they ever fought, Mayweather hasn't impressed me for a while now he's a coward for not facing Pacquio and I lost respect when he had the cheek to demand a drug test for Manny

    No chance Khan is beating Mayweather, but I'll be 100% supporting Amir and hope he does it, just can't see it.

    * Floyd and his entire team. That beiber * included. Anyone who seriously considers this guy the best ever just doesn't know boxing.

    Terrible scoring by the judges. Maidana just made Floyd his *. Loved his response to getting asked if he would take a rematch if Floyd let him have one. "I won the fight, I'll give him the rematch" :smiley-laughing002:

    Khan couldn't and will never touch Mayweather. Khan is an ok boxer who is lucky enough to be gifted with incredible speed.

    Mayweather is such a * the fact he is friends with Justin Bieber makes him a laughing stock I'm not a fan of Amir Khan but I would be pulling for him in that fight

    I don't think Maidana won, but I do think a good case could have been made for a draw.

    I think Maidana's performance put to shame a lot of other fighters though, particularly the likes of Canelo, Guerrero and Ortiz who all spoke a good fight but were put off my Mayweather counter-punching ability in a way that didn't seem to phase Maidana.

    It also sheds some light on the how many problems a prime (or even shot) Pacquiao would pose him if they ever fought.

    I actually think Khan would cause mayweather huge problems. A fairly tall welterweight with ridiculous, good foot speed and enough power. I'm convinced the first half of the fight would AT LEAST be competitive.

    I've been saying that about Khan since he first began training with Roach though in all honesty, and I could be well off. I just get the impression he would be a stylistic nightmare for Mayweather.

    Congrats to Derry Matthews at the weekend, real warrior of a guy and he loves Celtic so always good to see him do well, probably the most improved boxer out there atm.

    I try not to get involved in all the Mayweather arguments as people made up their mind on him a long time ago and just love to tear into him no matter how he preforms.
