[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Styles makes fights. WBO lightweight champion Terence Crawford, who is currently in camp for his November 29th defense against Raymundo Beltran, believes Amir Khan will present a tougher challenge than Manny Pacquiao for Floyd Mayweather Jr.

Most fans would like to see Mayweather and Pacquiao face each other in a welterweight unification in 2015. Pacquiao will defend his WBO title against Chris Algieri on November 22 in Macau, China.

Cotto at 154 was a tougher fight than Pacquiao. No disrespect, just saying...

I don't see it. I can see an argument for people who said Khan has a better chance then Maidana but it was Khan's fault it didn't happen because he didn't fight Devon.

But Manny has a much better shot because of his speed and angles. Floyd is a much different counter puncher then Marquez. Floyd doesn't really make you pay when you come in wild.he just makes you miss and hits you with a right. Manny could go wild and I don't think Floyds legs would hold up nevertheless Khan.

Crawford don't know **** about boxing.

exactly Marquez is a diffrent counter puncher than Marquez, i be saying that for years....Just because Floyd beat marquez, and Marquez gives manny problems dosent mean Floyd will give Manny the same problems....I guarantee Manny would be floyd toughest fight since Castill.

Manny has never been in a fight he didnt inflict damage win or lose....he has never been dominated, and he doesnt tire in late rounds.

I agree, Pac is no threat at all. I would predict 1st round KO for TBE

I like Crawford, but god knows what he's been smoking. Khan is the only fighter that Floyd could actually walk through. Even the most feather fisted fighters can make Khan do the booty dew and Floyd is a damn accurate puncher. I think its a terrible fight, I thought Maidana was bad, but this would be an absolute turkey.

He is right actually, at this stage Khan is by far the toughest fight for Floyd Mayweather. Khan is faster,younger,sharper,taller,Hungerier than Manny Pacquiao , Pacquiao has more power than Khan tho but Khan has very underrated power.

But Khan is deffo a threat to Fraud Jr.

[IronDanHamza]

I agree that stylistically Khan would be a tougher fight.

I would still rather see Pacquaio though.
