    Hmmm. Ive always heard its 60/10. And from one website where it lists all his fights he did have ten losses. Whereas at boxinglive.co.uk it only makes a mention of a 100/2 record without logs. So id say 60/10 is probably more reliable.

    Either way that doesnt really matter. He was an outstanding amateur who set the olympics alight himself. I remember at the time commentators from other countries were drooling over this guy. Silver medal at 17 is a fantastic feat. But i still reckon floyd would have been too slick especially at 19.

    Maybe he just looks up to him as a big rolemodel?

    Just goes to show how much he wants to be up there and be a role model to many people like Floyd is (Even if he isn't setting a very good example as of now).

    :lol:

    Khan is a young rich boxer, this stuff is part of his life. Plus Khan looks up to Floyd i see it as a good thing. Khan said he dreams everyday to become the first person to beat Mayweather, thats his dream and his goal.

    that fight probably isnt as far off as people think. Maybe in 18 months - 2 years.
    Khan can mature and find a way past the stacked 140 division he could end up in the ring with pbf. wether or not he wins is another matter though.....

    so that would mean he will be rooting for Floyd over his stablemate manny and doesn't believe manny will win.

    True that, in Khan's mind he must be thinking 'If i win these next 2 fights (Maidana, Bradley-Alexander Winner)' and then moves upto 147 a perfect weight for Khan's body he has a chance of maybe getting a shot at Floyd.

    Thing is, Khan is a big enough name in the Uk and America that floyds whole ''what makes money makes sense'' thing isn't an issue either. Especially if Khan does come through this division he will be extremely highly rated and even the haters are gonna have to shut up.

    But he has a long road before that. Maidana/Bradley/Alexander are no joke

    Well this is it, no point holding a title and being a poster boy all your life, this is boxing and to be the best you got to beat the best.

    These next 2 fight will make or break Khan, i have faith in the kid.

    i just hope people dont start ducking each other. Want Khan to face Alexander or Bradley while they are still undefeated. Otherwise the shine would be off it somewhat

    Picking Khan over Maidana? Boxer > Slugger
