    The thing is the people who do not rate/ like Khan are judging him on the fighter he was, not the fighter he is. That's like judging Brook on the Jones fight or when got chinned pretty bad by Senchenko, its just stupid, because neither fighter is at the same level as they were at that point.

    Khan has incredible hand speed, something I have not seen disputed on here. He puts his punches together very well, under Hunter he has decent ring IQ, he still gets caught in the wrong positions occasionally but everyone does. He has enough power to stop people from charging in at him, but he isn't a KO artist by any stretch of the imagination. His defence is poor, footwork can be off and he of course has a pretty poor chin.

    No matter what any of you guys want to say about him, he is still a world class fighter and I would be very shocked if he failed to win a world title in the next 12-18 months. I think there are too many egos involved to make the Brook fight anytime soon unfortunately, but I think it will get made down the line when both hold a belt and I cant wait for it to happen. Its an extremely close fight as both guys are world class, but no Khan has more than just speed.

    Beachie name a single fighter Khan has faced since the Garcia fight that is renowned for his power? It is easy to look good when you are cherry picking feather fisted fighters who aren't as good as you are.

    It is impossible to say he has improved as he hasn't fought anyone capable of testing his defences.

    He hasn't faced anyone with power, I didn't say he had, however Diaz, Collazo and Alexander all hit hard enough to get someone respect. I think someone of the class of Alexander, who isn't elite but he is a very good world level operator is able to breach anyone's defences but Khan didn't allow him to. He isn't cherry picking, he wanted to rebuild his career after back to back defeats and he has done that and former Welterweight champion Alexander was a good fight and Collazo, who don't forget KO'd Ortiz before their fight, plus now former light Welterweight champ Algieri isn't that bad for the last 3 opponents, in comparison to some.

    I mean who has a better last 3 opponents than that in the Welterweight division? Mayweather, Pacquiao, Bradley and not many others. Brook has faces Robles, Dan and Porter, is that better than Collazo, Alexander and Algieri, Porter is the best of the bunch but overall Khans are better, add Gavin and take out Robles and I still don't think it is better. Thurman has faced Guerrero, Bundu and Diaz, lets say Diaz and Collazo are equal, Alexander and Guerrero are equal in my opinion too and then Algieri or Bundu, I would have to edge towards Algieri.

    Realistically it is a fairly poor recent list of opponents, however compare it to others in the division and in the grand scheme of things its not really that bad.

    :| okay

    get your facts right before posting bullsht

    you type utter shi te


    you fan boy have been found wanting one to many times

    show me where i type bullsht

    for the life in me i can only come up with me confusing the gavin fight against vasell was for the euro when infact it was for the commanwealth and the bundu fight was for the euro which i pointed out soon as i had seen my mistake

    but you on the other hand are fast becoming one of the biggest bullshtting fan boys on here

    as i said before you never make a wrong mistake that shines a certain fighter in a diminished way its always way way over what as actually been achieved

    good day dumb fu ck

    I have made on mistake which I have admitted to and said it was down to a single piece of poor knowledge and the other was a typo. That leaves me with the sae amount of mistakes as what you put and I doubt anyone on the forum has failed to make a typo on something, silly little *****, you just like to criticise every fighter because they are successful whilst you aren't, instead of just giving credit where credit is due, like me. I think you will find I am not a fanboy but someone who generally doesn't criticise anyone unless provoked, but you like to criticise fighters at any given chance. You poor man.
