Saw the Fight last night. I think it will be difficult for Khan to beat Mayweather.
New York (AFP) - Britain's Amir Khan took a unanimous decision victory over American Chris Algieri in a welterweight matchup, then called out unbeaten Floyd Mayweather for a world title showdown.
Khan improved to 31-3 with his fifth victory in a row, which came by judges' scores of 117-111, 117-111 and 115-113.
Algieri fell to 20-2 with his second defeat in a row, the other coming last November at Macau at the hands of Filipino star Manny Pacquiao -- who lost to treble world champion Mayweather in boxing's richest-ever megafight earlier this month.
"Amir Khan wants to fight Floyd Mayweather," Khan screamed in the ring. "I want that next. I'm number one World Boxing Council (challenger). He's the champion
I doubt he can. But it's good publicity
Amir Khan is 10 years younger. He is probably thinking that even in defeat, he will make a ton of money. However, I doubt people will be as foolish as they realized they were after the Mayweather/Pacquiao fight. I also think that maybe his younger age could be an advantage.
Amir is fast, hits hard, but Mayweather is also fast and very defensive.
only a knockdown can win against mayweathers jabs.

No argument there.

Right on. Khan is a very good Fighter but Mayweather will frustrate him to the point where he will make mistakes. But he can get lucky and land that Knockout Punch.
