    Nah, he probably gets folded again. Khan can't really hang with punchers. Still though, he's only 27 and his resume is exceptional for his age.

    Other good under-30 fighters:

    Thabiso Mchunu (26, Cruiser)
    Demetrius Andrade (26, LMW)
    Keith Thurman (25, WW)
    Carl Frampton (27, JFW)
    Leo Santa Cruz (25, JFW)

    Thinking about it, the best is probably El Titty, Miguel Vasquez (27, LW).

        His gameplan will be better, he got Khan in the final moments of round 3 and still went out in round 4 trying to fight Danny. He didn't give himself to recover and decided not to clinch. He even stood in front of Danny with his ear muffs on, and while doing so ate shots and still kept standing in front of Danny with ear muffs and throwing a few back which in turn got the fight stopped. Kind of a similar situation with Abner Mares. Funny thing is I think Mares is also now too being trained by Hunter.

        From that list, I like Santa Cruz and Thurman the most. I saw Mchunu beat Chambers in a fight I thought Eddie was going to win.

            If we're really talking about the best it's gotta be Danny Garcia and with a good recent run Canelo too.

            Roman Gonzalez falls just under those guys.

            A tad under that sit QUigg, Frampton and Cruz.

            A level below we have Porter, Thurman and Brook.

              but as of now who is the top guy under 30 years of age?

              I'll name the popular ones:
              Canelo, Mikey Garcia, Danny Garcia, Shawn Porter, Terence Crawford..
              Charlie Z he's a Welter willing to fight a heavyweight lets see Floyd or Pacquaio fight Wilder
