    After 21 bouts: Amir, Hatton, Joe

    Khan has been criticized for taking on lesser fighters.

    But at 21 Fights, Frank Warren fighters: -

    Amir Khan age 22 faced and Beat Barrera
    Hatton age 22 faced and beat Giuseppe Lauri
    Calzage age 25 faced and beat Tyler Hughes

    __

    Considering Khan was KO'd 2 fights before Barrera, i think Khan should be cut some slack and given a little credit for facing an opponent, even though passed it, leagues above the other two.

    Even Limond and Earl are pretty good names imo. That Dane Kristjansen was ranked quite highly by one of the organisations, and St Clair was tiny but a durable guy who made Khan go 12.

    He does have the best resume out of those, with ease, after 21.

      Khan is doing ok so far, hopefully he continues to improve his defence, you never know, he might even be better @ 140, malinaggi may not be too far ahead of khan.

          if you hadn't noticed, Calzaghe and Hatton's records are hardly exalted around here either mate

          Calzaghe did fight Eubank and capture a title that same year though, and Hatton beat Thaxton and Pep a couple months later

              But neither Calzaghe nor Hatton ever got KOed in the first round.

                Not about who you lose to mate, it's who you beat.

                  Cliche.

                  Honestly, your Calzaghe hating is just boring, mate. Don't you get tired of it yourself? It's pretty much all you ever talk about.

                  The most interesting thing is... nobody on the whole forum has ever had their opinion changed by a Calzaghe hate thread. And vice versa... nobody has been converted to a Calzaghe fan from reading a pro-Calzaghe thread.

                  So why waste our time on this poop? I'm not even sure why I'm replying.
