    Do you think Khan can get on the top 10 P4P list?

    No, not unless he starts fighting which seems like it is an issue for him at the moment. Maybe he's trying to leave Haymon who knows.

    No. For a start he seems unwilling to take on the type of opponents that would justify obtaining a place on that most coveted of lists.

    He'd rather just pretend he's already on it.

    The question as phrased makes no sense.

    Can he be pound for pound what?

    That needs to be framed with a relative point of reference. Saying that someone is "pound for pound" is like saying they are "very", or "approximately"; incomplete thought.

    It does annoy me when people use "p4p" as though it worked as an adjective without qualification on its own, though.

    No, plus he will never be as he's not been in the past the best in his division. His career has been all smoke and mirrors.

    Where do people get the idea that Khan can't be outboxed?

    If he was capable of becoming a pound 4 pound fighter, he'd already have made it by now.
