Love him Or Hate him, Its time to start givin Khan Credit for fighting the best!

Folks might not like him for his demeanor outside of the ring, but it is what it is. Khan has called out & fought some of the biggest names in his division and has never turned down a fight that has meant something.
As a champion, he came into a challenger's backyard AS a challenger virtually, and payed the price for it. He's done everything that we as boxing fans consistently b**h about fighters NOT doing.
He told us though his big ass mouth that he was gonna take the long road to the top of his division 4 years ago and has done so.Comment

Khan has a record at 140 which is decent but not great
Not sure abt Ortiz as I heard he done a number on him as an amateur but he does need that one marquee prime solid win before he can say he dealt with all business at 140. I do hope we get to see Khan v Bradley asap
Oh and lets not forget that while altho Khan himself would probably fight anyone, his team have carefully managed him the direction they wanted, Maidana had to chase his mandatory with Khan for over a year and only after threatening to sue did they get their shot... His team also wanted no part of JMM at lightweight despite being a potential mandatory to the WBO - its only timing. I dont think either JMM or Khan ducked anybody, if I recall it was Nacho doing all the talkingComment

Ok so by this reasoning was manny pacquiao P4P number for the last 3 years? Apply your reasoning to this scenario. And you will see how flawed it is. How can someone overtake the number 1 fighter if the number 1 is not fighting him? So the number 1 guy can just stay number 1 by fighting lesser challenges?Comment

Khan has a solid resume thus far and is still a young fighter. He's what? 24 years old? Compare that to Adrien Broner who's 23 and Andre Berto who's like 28 years old.
It's not his fault in the Bradley situation and he was supposed to fight Peterson again but we know what happened there.
Garcia is a decent opponent considering his options.Comment
