    He talks alot in interviews, is he even a title holder?

    Amir Khan calling out people in interviews is the equivalent to Devon Alexander thinking somebody owes him something.

    He's the undisputed Glass Jaw champion of 135 and 140. Many predict his chin weakness to carry up to 147. Khan believes it will improve his chin strength.

    Time will tell.

    He never fights who he calls out.

    Khan is only trying to fight for the TBE of all time World title and being ducked for Berto.

    Mayweather knows that stylistically Khan is a nightmare for him and that he could lose.

    No title. He's not that good a Welter. Would just rather talk his way into a fight withn Floyd.

    He holds WBC silver belt, for what it's worth.

    Title or not. At least he has a name. With so many sanctionning bodies, there are champions and chumpions.

    Hes not a champ or anything, just a man whose been chasing the Floyd fight for the last 3 years. I honestly think hes thrown his career away. When he was at 140 he was fighting the best in the division (not all of them) but he was trying. Since moving to WW he automatically assumed he was going to get the Floyd fight

    He does not currently own a recognized world title belt. He made the mistake of putting all his eggs in the Mayweather basket while he should have been seeking out realistic options.

    It was pretty clear that Mayweather was going to pick his fellow steroid fiend Berto. It's hard to feel sympathy for Khan, especially when he struggled to get past Algieri.

    Pretty sure Brook and Mayweather hold the only legit titles at Welter, therefore he should've fought Brook and forced the fight or lost and let Brook get the fight, true he makes more money if Brook actually beats somebody else except Porter but he also missed out on ensuring the Mayweather fight and THAT MONEY. He'd have made a fortune fighting Brook already regardless and then THAT 'MONEY' MONEY on top of it.

    edit: oh I guess Bradley has the belt Floyd was stripped of, so him too. All the more reason for Khan to get after Bradley again, who chose Pacquiao instead back in the day.
