Who has the better resume - Amir Khan or Zab Judah?

[BIG GUNZ]

Who would you say has the better resume? I know Judah has fought longer and fought more established fighters but who has the better overall resume in terms of wins?

I suppose, but that logic states that if Khan fights Garcia in a rematch, fights Floyd & Matthysse next year, & loses to all of them that makes his resume/legacy better than it is now?

I go by wins. Fighting the best and losing to the best 90-100% of the time doesn't not make you great. It just means you lost whenever you stepped up elite. Khan can have a more successful career than Judah if he simply avenges a couple of his losses and scores a bit win. It doesn't have to be because he fought everyone Zab fought. Just by having better wins.

Names and best wins:

Judah:
Matthysse
Spinks II
Witter

Khan:
Judah
Maidana
Paulie

I'd say in terms of wins, they are pretty even and Khan may have an edge because he did beat Judah, he did beat Maidana and prove heart in that fight, and dominated Paulie. Plus he has some decent wins over some young undefeated contenders. I don't count Barrera or Julio Diaz either.

Judah with the more than obvious edge in overall competition win or lose. Spinks II victory and unifying the title was his biggest accomplishment. He also beat an undefeated Matthysse. Unfortunately the Witter victory was so long ago and Witter didn't amount to much. Plus he had to lose to Spinks before beating him.

well the names you mentioned for zab are mostly losses aside from witter and spinks lol....and you forgot to mention kotelnik for khan...

[LacedUp]

Pretty even, but Khan edges it imo. He also beat Judah.

Judah's been in with better comp but Khan has marginally better wins.

[Bushidō]

Are we talking about best victories? Or just fought better opponents because Judah fought Tsyzu and Mayweather and Cotto. Those 3 are all hall of famers and the best in their generation...well maybe not Cotto.

Zabdiel Judah, by far.

Judah also moved up to welterweight and won the lineal title. No contest!
