Cashcow, he got his ass knocked out by Prescott, in his very next fight he fought some bum for a vacant title.

He has had everything handed to him on a silver platter. Its disgraceful and he'll likely get a Garcia rematch before Lucas gets his shot.

he won it by completely shutting out Kotelnyk who was WBA champ...

These are the answers you seek. He won a title by beating Kotelnik, who won the title from then undefeated Gavin Rees. Khan then grabbed the IBF belt by KOing Judah, who got the title from Mabuza.

Why did I even type that?

If youre asking about the WBC Silver title: it's not a world title, it's just a WBC ranking.

I just noticed that Khan won the WBC Silver title which undefeated Roberto Ortiz defended on October 27, in his seventh defense of the title. I guess he vacated when he realized that, just like Vanes, you don't get a world title shot just 'cause you're in line for one.

You gotta buy it.

No, it's a way to rank a fighter.
