    At exactly the same stage of their careers as Gavin is now, who would win? I hate to say this but Khan beats him handidly.

    nope. frankie wins, amirs style still was virtually that of an amateur still, he was winning on stoppages through accumulation of punches most of the time. straight punches, from the chin, no hooks or uppercuts at all really
    and frankie is a better amateur, so he'd have little problem with this style IMO. plus khan comes forward, looking for a fight, frankie wouldnt have to chase him

    Good points, I am just interested to see what the general consensus is.

    Khan stops him on cuts, those sharp fast jabs would land all night and inturn rip his skin apart. Gavin will be a top fighter no doubt, but that skin will be an issue.

    Gavin stopped him in the amateurs and will do the same again.

    id take gavin all day he'd be to fast and he's adapted alot faster to the pros than kahn did i think, his movement and slick combos would be enough to take it on points

    Sky were wrong. Amir Khan's amateur career record is readily available.

    Khan stops him in 6 round, maybe less. Frankie doesn't have the power to expose Khan's chin. Khan would use sharp punches to cut him up and stop him IMO.

    Craig Watson did not knock him out. He knocked him down but Amir still won the fight.
