    Don't think anybody is doubting that he'll probably beat Kotelnik. Doesn't mean he'll be p4p top 5 though.....

    maybe, I dont see it myself though. At the very top level you need a half decent chin. I'm not saying you need a chin like wayne mccullough or something, but you need to be able to take standard shots, which khan has proved to struggle with in the past. These were against sub-standard opponents also. Same goes for Gamboa

    juanma, gamboa, ortiz and nonito donaire but they're hardly prospects anymore, more like contenders and actual champs. i can't say that i think anyone i've heard of that isn't rated is a potential top 5....maybe rigondeaux
