    Not to sure i agree with this statement - although khan has fast hands his foot movement is poor & question marks remain over his chin.

    Garcia - good chin but too slow and wide with his punches.

    Khan - quick with some decent power but has a **** chin.

    I'd say khan gives him a better challenge as long as he doesn't get hit flush. Still a crap fight

    While Garcia will probably defeat Khan in a rematch by KO, Khan is a much more enticing opponent against Mayweather. I think Khan would do better against Floyd then Garcia.

    Right ice , undefeated, highly ranked, what does a fighter have to do? Had you heard of ruslan provotkim before the Bradley fight , i doubt it , coz you ain't heard of someone doesn't mean they can't fight, apart from mayweather he would give all the top welterweights a decent fight,winning more than he'd lose

    Brook would probably have to fight a world class opponent once or thrice.

    Interesting....that makes sense. Hunter had been stating something to that effect: that if amir commits to the spartan lifestyle and repetitive drills of honing his boxing skills that he can improve at a rapid rate. That of course would be up for debate on this board. However, I'm curious to see though how and/or if Khan does improve under Hunter. People have been critical of his performances so far. However, I think it takes time to get acclimated to a new trainer. In addition, I thought he looked very solid against Molina. Against Diaz, there were some scary moments for sure. However, his boxing skills skill saw him through that match.

    How do people continually rate Khan's performance against Molina bad? He ended up stopping him. Speed-wise, I thought he looked amazing. He was susceptible to the hook still. However, he ended up stopping Molina in the later rounds. His punching power was perhaps slightly diminished. Perhaps because he was weight drained. The Diaz fight I can see where there would be criticism.

    Have to disagree. Ward is #1 p4p.

    No not even close. Mayweather earned his p4p spot by beating quality fighters, winning titles in different weight classes, looking unbeatable and showing he is a master of his craft consistently for years. No fighter, least of all Amir Khan who has looked like **** in recent fights, lost or looked fragile against every prime threat he's ever faced, can come along and inherit all that hard work and all those years of dominance. It doesn't work like that.
