Considering Maidana, Judah, and Malignaggi are all still factors in their respective weight classes, while Witter, Urango, and Bailey either dropped off the face of the earth or are non-factors
Kotelnik and Matthysse beat Alexander, Kotelnik in particular... His record may not read that way, but watch the damn fights... (Kotelnik in particular)

Maidana had a period where he was just getting hit and not landing much.
i was talking about alexander and matthysse. if alexander had an actual win against matthysse it woul dbe his best, but in reality it was a lopsided matthysse decision.
i wrote khan when i should have written alexander, if memory serves right, which would explain the confusion and lead you to assume i was talking about maidana.
the maidana fight was close, but kahn won it clearly on the cards. the matthysse fight with alexander was not close, with matthysse winning most of the rounds and dropping alexander.

Khan top 5 wins:

Paulie Malignaggi, 29, 27-3 (5KO) -TKO 11
Marcos Maidana, 27, 29-1 (27KO) - UD 12
Zab Judah, 33, 41-6 (28KO) - TKO5 IBF WW title
Dimitry Salita, 28, 30-0-1 (16KO) - TKO1
- I included wins for Alexander against Kotelnik and Matthysse in the consideration, though they were very disputed. Equally, I did not include Khan's disputed loss to Lamont Peterson.
Who's got the upper hand and why?

The term resume is a very subjective one. When one say resume are they including just wins or notable opponents also? If it's the latter, then there's no question that Amir Khan has more notable names on his resume than Devon Alexander. Such as: Zab Judah, Marcos Antonio Barrera, Paulie Malignaggi, David Diaz, Lamont Peterson, Marcos Maidana and Danny Garcia. However, when it comes to quality wins I will have to go with the former in Devon Alexander. He has defeated Junior Witter, Lucas Matthysse, Marcos Maidana and Randall Bailey, Juan Urango and Andreas Kotelnik.
