If Khan beats Maidana he is > Hatton

[joelab75]

Tzsyu wasnt shot. Malignagi was when Khan fought him.

Hatton's best win was Tzsyu

Khan's best win was Malignagi.

how the F*uck Khan is better even if he beat Maidana?

Tzsyu would beat all the top 140 lbs right now.

He wouldn't just beat them he would smoke most of them.......

[Gorilla Dogs]

right now Khan is better than Hatton ever was. Khan has a great head on his shoulders and doesnt booze around and gain lots of weight between fights

[Baracka Flocka]

Hatton deserves much more respect than he gets on the board.

Hatton is my dude for real. He only lost to the top 2 fighters of the last 20 years and are both easily in the ATG top 15.

Khan is great; love the kid, but he's not where was Hatton is at yet.

[wazaa.]

Skills wise it isn't even close. This Khan beats any Hatton.

When Amir beats Maidana, I think their resumes are on par.

Malignaggi: "I've now lost to 2 elite fighters. Cotto and Khan."

Malignaggi was better when he fought Khan because of the corner change.

Nah he'd still have a way to go. The Tyszu that Hatton beat is still streets ahead of anyone on Amir's resume.

[nomadman]

Some might argue he allready is, I mean Hatton had a terrible resume, heres his best wins

Urango (Urango is garbage and so was this fight)
Collazo (Collazo actually won this fight)
Tzsyu (was so shot it's not even funny)
Maglinaggi (It's Maglinaggi)
Castillo (during his ringwalk the commentators proclaimed him a shot fighter)

The only shot fighter on that list at the time Hatton fought him was Castillo. Tszyu wasn't shot, just old and past his best, which is still bloody superb considering what a great 140lber he was. In fact many people were predicting Tszyu to steamroll Hatton, given his impressive performance against Sharba Mitchell just prior to that fight. Hatton fought like a demon come fight night and pulled out unquestionably the greatest win in his career. It was the fight which put him on the map.

The Collazo fight was close and could have gone either way, but Collazo's a spoiler and much better than he looks and Hatton was fighting at 147. Not Hatton's best performance by any means but far from a robbery. Urango isn't great but he's a solid fighter whom Hatton comprehensively shut out. A decent win. Malignaggi? Well, like you said it's Malignaggi whom I assume you think is absolute crap so we can erase the result from both Hatton's and Khan's resumes right?

Khans best wins

Kotelnik (this guy is better than anyone hatton beat, YES IM SERIOUS, khan also shut him out)
Maglinaggi (Same as Hatton, but khan beat him better)
Barerra (old and small, but probably equal to castillo in terms of what he offered)

Add Maidana to that list and Khan unquestionably surpasses Hatton.

Kotelnik's a pretty decent fighter but in no way is he one iota as good as the Tszyu that Hatton fought, and a pretty light puncher for all that. Kotelnik would have probably given Hatton more problems had they fought, but that's purely a stylistic clash. Tszyu would have knocked Khan out. You've already said that the Malignaggi and Barrera that Khan fought are roughly equal to the Malignaggi and Castillo that Hatton fought so who does that leave on Khan's resume exactly? Dmitry Salita?

Ultimately, whether you think Khan's resume is better than Hatton's boils down to whether or not you think Kotelnik is better than Tszyu, Collazo and Urango put together. Needless to say, I don't.

I would only gauge them by age, At 23 Khan's resume >>>>>>>>> Hatton's resume when he was 23, And by the time Khan turn 27/28 he probably would be a position to say i fought the best P4P fighters in the world.

[talz]

In terms of boxing ability Khan is way ahead of hatton, but until Khan beats maidana, winner of brad-alex he won't have a better reseme than hatton.
