    That may be the case but the only fighter I can think of who really meets that criteria would be Chavez in his 2 fights with ODLH. Khan was very carefully managed by Frank Warren over here who worked hard to protect his investment then quickly put Khan on PPV which never seemed truly justified.

    Critisism grew by way of the hype Khan was getting only to see him getting dropped and wobbled along the way by some of these 'old has-beens'. I don't doubt Khan's talents at all but I'd much rather see him display his ability than just tell us about it!

    DLH is greater than khan will ever b. He is a bum and to say that is stupid bcos the guys hes fought havent even had peaks, except for barrera but that fight was a joke and shudnt even count as a contested fight. I really hope khan gets his punk ass KOd.

    :rofl:rofl Oh go away you Irish leprechaun. "Haven't even had peaks"?? :lol:

    What the hell do you mean by that? Kotelnik and Salita were at their peaks you fool. Do you know the actually meaning of Peaking?

    Seriously just stick to supporting the likes of Willie Limond

    The right time meaning when they are less (not) dangerous, but still a big name?

    The guys over at Golden Boy Promotions, especially the big man himself, won't be happy at all.

    Somebody suggested a gag order on Khan. Top suggestion.

    Haha I remembered this quote. He basically stupidly slipped up and admitted his plan was to purposely pick past it names known in the USA.

    Judah, Collazo, Barrera, Alexander, Julio Diaz, Malignaggi all past their best.

    Too bad Khans chin declined rather quickly once he jumped the pond.

    Khan isn't the sharpest knife in the drawer so no surprise he comes out with this stuff.

    Just saying openly what many fighters genuinely feel and do. But ya not tge smartest statements to make public.
