    Khan is now No.2 with Boxrec at 140
     
  5. Why, where do you have him ranked? Below Maidana? What would your top 4 be? I just had a look, and Ring and Boxrec have him at 3 and 2 respectively. I have no problem with him being ranked #2. Why do you?

    Having him at 3 I can understand I think its a toss up between him and devon for that spot but noway does maidana rank above him.

    He should not, he hasnt fought but two names Barrera who is really a super feather weight, and Paulie...
    Khan is at the bottom of the tops right now.... but is still a work in progress

    Khan impressed me last night too. I was pulling for Paulie but knew it was going to be a tough fight for him.

    I'd rank them as follows:

    1. Bradley
    2. Alexander
    3. Khan
    4. Maidana

    Since Maidana is being a little bit of a ***** with the BS injury, I'm ready for a Alexander/Khan fight with the winner facing Bradley.

    Khan fought a pretty damn good fight last night.Doing mostly everything well in there,and taking his time.

    I admit,a realy thought Malignaggi would be able to out box Khan and take a decision.

    I dont think Paulie expected Khan to take his time like he did.I think Paulie's plan had Khan coming forward and Malignaggi feeding of that.When Paulie seen that wasnt the case,it looked like a lost cause.

    Congrats to Amir.

    Like I said yesterday, he fought a perfectly clean, traditional style fight and gave Paulie a goose egg. That isn't easy. I was very impressed. 140 should be a very exciting division if fights get made.

    That's right! Shame on those people for wanting the number 1 guy, and the number 2 guy to face each other! :nono

    This, itll solve the "cancel each other out" problem, and everyone wants to see that a true champ beats everyone.

    That, or they can face each other, and Khan fights the loser, then the winner..?
