Floyd Mayweather Jr(24yrs) vs Amir Khan(present age 24yrs) who has the best resume

If all you were trying to say is that Khan has done well for his age, then why not just say "Khan has done well for his age" as opposed to making an off base comparison? I like Khan fine, and I think he's a fine young fighter, but PBF he's not.

 

Darni, just admit that you’re not fully aware of Floyd’s past achievements, and that you just incorrectly assumed Khan’s current resume is better than what Floyd’s was at 24. No shame in that.

 

He only mentioned what he knew....the thing is most Khanatics have only been following the sport for a very short period.

The fact is their records are not even close and even the performances haven't been of a similar level.

Khan is a good fighter who may develop into a very good fighter but Mayweather is a great fighter.

A win over a heartless Judah and some fans are just getting WAY too carried away

 

Bobfather is turning into a big old softie in his old age.

 

But here you've said:

Honestly, you're not doing Khan any favours by comparing him to someone like Floyd. No matter how many versions of the two you compare, Khan will always come out the lesser fighter.

I suggest you get hold of Floyd's career set. Not only will it help you understand how far advanced Floyd was when he was 24, you'll also be treated to some brilliant boxing in the process, too.

 

I'm more of a Bradley fan but have Khan at #1 at JWW and he has a good of chance as any to become a great fighter and make a real impact on the sport.

Taking out the Maidana/Guerrero winner in December (or at least the Morales/Matthysse winner) and moving up to 147 and taking out someone like Berto before fighting Mayweather late 2012 is the path for Khan to continue the path that he is currently on.

If he does that and wins or comes damn close to it, you will not have to make these threads as Khan will have proven that he is the **** like Mayweather, Pac, Jones, BHop and the other great fighters of this generation before him achieved.

Something tells me though that if Khan takes the test, he will fold like the rest (sorry couldn't resist :!

 

Money all day long! Plus by the time was that Money was 17, he had already sparred with guys like Pernell, Freddie Pendleton, Uncle Roger and Frankie Randall soe Money was way ahead of the learning curve, unlke Amir.

 

But see again you are incorrect, it is THAT far, they aren't close at this age, period. I don't know what Khan may or may not accomplish, and it's no disrespect to him as a fighter, but as of this point he's not on PBF's level and it's really not close.

 

Please explain? How is he "better" from being sparked out in under a minute? I agree he's recovered and got his career back on track, but what was gained from that experience, that's so valuable?
