    Yes but who's he fought in that time..

    A few rounds with Barrera, Kotenik & 1 with Salita

    Your saying you don't see many fighters outpointing him because of his speed. But because we've yet to see him fight at a world class level, we just don't know if speed is enough.

    You might be a amatuer boxer and have super fast world class hand speed, doesn't mean your going to clean up your division at the world level.

    My point is, until we see him in with decent opposition, we just don't know

    Personally, I think Malignaggi is one of the hardest fights out there for Khan. Stylistically, how would Khan fare against a slickster like Malignaggi? I honestly think Malignaggi and Bradley are the two best fighters in the division and if Khan wants to be considered the best in the division, he has to beat at least one of them. Plenty of good fights out there for him anyway, IMO.

    As for JMM, I hope he goes back to 135 as he can still rule that division for many years to come, IMO. Valero is made for him.

    Not Katsidis please, what I want to see is Katsidis-Marquez and Khan-Maidana as that last one can't happen I would like to see Khan-Mallignaggi. But please make it like that I don't want to see Khan-Katsidis that is a crap matchup when you look at both of their available options.

    hatton is shot, and his career is almost over. Its ok for him to have a light fight, hes got nothin to prove

    kahn on the other hand, is calling out light weights, super feathers ect.... and none of the top 5 guys in his division.

    Khan is a masterful hype job by warren. He is a paper champ, who calls out people from lower weight classes, and dosent want to fight tough guys from his own division. And when he fought a good puncher(not a good fighter a good puncher) he got exposed.....

    Thats why khan is a ****ing joke

    I think Katsidis is fighting Diaz, I want Khan to just fight some one world class, I would like to see him in with any of the top lightwelters or Katsidis, I think the way Katsidis fight i dont think Khan would be able to keep him off for 12 rounds.

    Katsidis KO's Khan imo. JMM outclasses him (im surprised at how underrated he is on this forum) and Malignaggi is as fast as Khan imo and has the advantage in experience.

    In fact Maidana is the easiest option for him.

    remember, if Limond and Michael Gomez (super featherweights) can trouble him then world class fighters should be able to do it too i'd thinkl

    Yes we are yet to see Khan vs real world class fighters that is true. Under Roach i think Khan is learning to control his speed and use it at the right times. Its called timing, Khan needs to improve his timing, once he has started doing that, we will see good things happen.

    But your right we dont know what will happen when he fights real world class fighters, but now he is with GBP we will soon find out.

    what are you talking about??? Khan shouldn't use his speed all the time??? WTF?! Also, This is not called timing! Timing is when you make your fist meet a moving target i.e the opponents chin! Not deciding when to be quick and when not to be!
