Thought this was a khan-maidana thread. Floyd most certainly wins against Khan I would think.
maidana went through a lull after the khan fight so he didn't look great against alexander and he didnt even have a trainer for a lot of that camp.. people have short memories and only remember the last fight... go watch khan vs maidana and you'll see him doing all the same things against khan that he did against floyd and broner.. garcia just brought him back to his A game (but he was on his A game in the khan fight too, he just fell off for a few performances after that)
khan clearly beat both maidana and collazo, dropped them both too.. i think they're roughly the same level.. maybe maidana has the slight edge because he has more punch power but in terms of skills i think they evenly matched..

Maidana was basically an undefeated fighter when Mayweather fought him, Khan need to step up and fight Maidana at 147
Sad thing is.. these are the type of things Floyd fans would say.

Most people who have posted have it right. It's about a 50/50 fight (I slightly favour Khan however). Khan has by the far the styles advantage. But with Floyd's boxing brain and Khan's lackof such, anything can happen. It's important to note that Floyd would probably whoop Khan if he wasnt 37, but seeing as he is, I think it's all there for Khan's footspeed, handspeed and by-far superior workrate to take this to the more stationary Floyd. Floyd's defensive style depends on him reading his opponents moves - and it's much harder to read opponents when they're as fast as Khan, or as awkward as Maidana, and when you're 37 and your reflexes have slowed down.
Khan, being one of the ******est individuals in the sport of boxing, should have taken this fight in September and might regret that decision. He can get knocked out at any time with the right opponent, and I can easily see someone beating Floyd in September so long as he's at least on Maidana's level (B+). He's there for the taking at this point.
