    Not really no. He provides a little name value but his performances since getting smashed by Canelo haven't impressed.
    He's taken some big KO's over the years, even light hitting Sammy Vargas had him wobbling all over the show and that's not the first time that's happened. He should hang em up unless the Brook fight is a serious goer (i doubt it) and call it a day.

    Khan is still banging out good tunes, I have waited a long time for his album to be released, hopefully now he has stopped boxing we get what we all came for.. Amir Khan the pop star.

    Not relevant at all when it comes to rankings or titles etc. We're a good few years past that.

    He does bring a name though, so don't be surprised to see him having a least one more big fight down the line. Much like when Khan himself brought the husk of Barrera to Manchester.

    I can’t believe there are still clowns who think Mayweather avoided Khan. Khan of all the people a knockout waiting to happen if you hit his chin against the most accurate skilful boxer.

    Khan won the poll
    Khan had more drawing power than Maidana $$$

    Still fought Maidana and forced him to wear foam gloves and almost lost the first fight!

    Floyd is naff. Like Wlad trying to rig a canvas.

    These are all facts. "Yeah whatever" is denial.

    Peaked between 2009-2011

    Been downhill since the Danny Garcia fight.

    To put that into perspective....Bitcoin was less than $20 in May 2012.....

    Only in the UK.

    He achieved way more than Simple Kell though and in time, history will reflect that.

    To be fair whilst i don't think Floyd ducked him, he did have Khan top that poll
