    Not really. He's had a good run recently, but he hasn't had the consistency or the level of wins that reach Hatton's career accomplishments. The gap isn't immense, but it's significant.

    Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao.

    When Khan fights someone at elite level, get back to me.

    No, but he's only 2-3 big fights from passing Hatton.

    As a Khan fan, I say no. Hatton was the main man in the JWW div. When Khan unifies all the titles, then I would rank him above Hatton.

    No he doesn't. Hattons 2 decent wins were against old men. Very old men who were past it.
    Other than that your rating him on the basis of who he lost to.:huh which is backward and makes u look a ****.

    Watch more boxing.

    Ok first of all if you were watching boxing before 2007 you would know that the Castillo win is completely irrelevant. He was a shot fighter going in and coming off a controversial decision against Ngoudjo.

    Second, you mean to tell me the only way Khan can past Hatton's win over Tszyu is to beat Pacquiao or Mayweather? :verysad

    Utterly disgraceful.:-(
