    Khan is a world champ with 3 title defences, and is one fight away from possibly unifying the division

    in the real world 24 and 27 aint much difference but you can do a lot in that time
    thanks for correcting me ure absolutely right

    its interesting because they both were olympians in the same year and even though khan turned pro a little later their records are very identical

    guess time will tell if their careers will be too

      I think Khan will be able to move up and down weights winning titles alot easier than Ward, I dont see Ward going up to light heavyweight.

      So I will go with Khan just because Khan can move up the weight divisions and be a p4p fighter.

        Its funny because when you factor in Khan's loss to Prescott, you'd think he'd be way behind ward, BUT

        a lot of Ward's style is about experiance actually, and he needed to have a bit of time to mature, he showed the benefit of that extra time against Kessler and Green

          khan may be the flashier guy, but i think ward is clearly the much smarter technical consistent fighter. khan seems to fight 1 minute out of the round and take the rest off. he flurries a lot. i'm not sure how good his defense when he isn't relying on his footspeed.

            Ward is almost 27
            Khan is 24

            Both are still young in my book and these gents have bright future in boxing. Too early to say though who is going to have a better career record.

                  Kahn is probably going to be the bigger draw, but Ward will likely have the better record. So I guess it all depends on what you consider to be a better career.

                    Why not? Ward was light heavy in the ams.
