    WTF has this guy done again?

    Close points wins over B level fighters in Algieri and Maidana. Clowned off the stage by a B+ fighter in Garcia.

    What is his best win again? He shut out Devon? Whoopty ****.

    Algieri would put the f*ck on literally everybody Khan has fought with the possible exceptions of Peterson and Maidana. And those would both be great fights.

    So eloquently put from the comforts of your couch, If hes a bum then that double bum that he beat in maidana gave that single bum mayweather hell for 24 rounds foh.

    If being a "bum" means I get to be a multi millionaire, world boxing champion, Olympic silver medallist and have faced 14 world champions in my career then sign me up.....

    .....otherwise carry on with your mininum wage job and hide from behind your keyboard.

    Maidana beat Fluid. He's a legit W on your resume.

    What a stupid thread. Khan is good but not great and far far from a bum.

    Khan did a lot with what he had. Which is horrid defense and a bad chin. He was good. He fought top 10 guys and beat them. That’s not a bum.

    Offensively, khan was a phenom. Roach was a perfect coach for him at that stage. Except that he had a glassy chin. So…he tried making adjustments to protect his chin…which pretty much killed what made him special.

    Dereck Chisora is a multi millionaire whos made far more money than Artur Beterbiev

    hell, even Avni Yilidrim , David Price and Dave Allen have probably made more money than Beterbiev!

    how much money a boxer makes is not relevant to ability/achievements. it doesn't work like that.. Khan has made made more money than most hall of fame fighters, but hes nowhere near their level.

    don't get why you're so bothered over what a sportsman earns anyway.
