Like I said, I may not be a fan of Khan, but no man can knock his balls he has a pair that'll make some jealous.

Originally posted by Prince_Pugilist View PostBradley's best opponent is Pacquiao so I won't make any arguments about who has the better resume, but pre-Pac Bradley was on equal footing with Khan.
Alexander lost to Kotelnyk, who Khan handily beat, fought Urango who who is an average boxer at best (good power though), lost to Matthyse, beat a past it Witter and quit like a baby against Bradley.
^^^ Khan is miles better.
McCloskey was a tune up in a sense but he was fighting the best ww in Europe, with British boxing's biggest winning streak at the time.
No way in hell was Malignaggi a tune up, the only two guys to clearly beat him are Cotto and Hatton, both top level opponents. I'd say Khan did an even better job, in MSG...Malignaggi's hometown, while Khan was clearly the bigger name.

The score of 96-93 in the Alexander fight to me is worthy of the term robbery, the other scores weren't as bad to fall in that category but having watched the Alexander and Judah fights many times, I personally can't see how he lost either fight.Last edited by gmc_rfc_06; 09-12-2012, 06:43 AM.

Originally posted by Prince_Pugilist View PostI would like to have replied to all the points you make, but your starting off point was completely wrong, so everything that comes after does not warrant too much consideration on my part.
Khan has never won a world championship which was vacant, he fought champion Kotelnyk and champion Judah and fought Garcia when Garcia was champion. If anyone won a vacant title it was Judah and Garcia.
See, I only deal in facts.
So he beat Kotelnyk, a rather plain Euro level operator and an inconsistent mental midget who in decades have never beaten a single world class operator between them unless you class 'Maidana' and Kotelnyks shoddy victory over him as world class.
These fighters are just names, they're not world class. Gatekeepers to world level.
All Amir has beat is names of plodders & defensive midgets.
He has fought 3 guys his own height and lost in embarrassing fashion everytime, coincidence? Of course not! He only looks impressive against zombies & defensive midgets, FACT! The guy is a fraud that should go back to the U.K & try avenge his loss to Prescott because I for one am fully convinced that loss was no fluke and he is not even on Prescotts level.
