What fights would it take for Khan to be considered P4P numero uno?

    Just interested to see what the fellows here think as there has been some talk of it recently. Maidana is considered Khans best win by most so surely P4P talk is premature? Ortiz looked very good beating Berto, ragged I know and pretty easy to hit but very determined, strong and exciting, this would be a good test at 147? If Khan beat Mayweather tomorrow ( not saying he would ) he would probably crown himself P4P champ? What you think, who would he have to beat to be considered by boxing people P4P?

    Pac is number one in my eyes and to be the man you have to beat the man.

    It's not always possible to beat the man when we're talking pound-for pound. It just so happens that at the moment the big P4P guys are similar sizes. What happens if a new super-duper, got-it-all-in-style fighter turns up at bantomweight and lays legitimate claim to be P4P number 1? You think he's got to fight Pac, too?

    I use to think that but its not how it works. If some underdog got lucky and landeda bingo punch on pac doesnt mean he has proved all that pac has proved over the years andmake him number one.

    Yeah, pound for pound I'd have my money on Donaire landing that hook on khan and separating him from the earth!

    Khan would have to do more than Pac. Even beating Floyd wouldn't be enough.

    I agree that it's not always possible, but in this case the biggest issue is Freddie Roach. These guys could fight at 147 and if it did happen and Khan came out on top in a competitive fight in my eyes that would be enough. But hey another thing about P4P is it's subjective some would still make a case for Mayweather for example.

    If he beats Bradley then Brook followed by Berto and Floyd and then Pac, he'd still be a ****.

    What would be enough? A run of fights where you would consider him top dog?
