    On Forums and Youtube yes but honestly, American Casuals still don't have a ***in clue who Amir Khan is

    Kell Brook surpasses Khan if he beats Porter IMO, Kell Brook might end up being the one that get Mayweather in the UK NOT KHAN if he wins

      He beat one in his last fight

          Is that supposed to be a knock? Do American casuals know anyone outside of Mayweather and Pacquiao?

          Khan's only opponent at welterweight was better than anyone Brook has fought in over 30 fights at the weight.

            He hasnt fought a relevant fighter since DSG,,, still trying to call shots.
            Was he ever relevant?

            I mean the kid walks around like he's a boss, a shot caller.

            All the KhanTards should get all the blame for his behavior. He sucks

              GGG is a champion who has never lost a fight and rarely loses a round and he has never been knocked down. GGG has knocked out his last 17 opponents in a row and 6 of them were rated in the top 10 of the world's middleweight and two of them in the top 5. Khan has been knocked down and knocked out numerous times and has never defeated a top 10 world rated welterweight. Number 30 rated Collazo is hardly an important win. It's fun to be a GGG fan because he always wins by KO. It must suck to be a Khan fan and watch him lose to guys like Prescott and Peterson. His glass jaw is only getting worse.

                In what rankings system was Collazo number 30? I assume you'll be able to list the 29 guys ahead of him at the time....

                If Collazo was number 30 at welterweight, Daniel Geale must have been number 130 at middleweight. Khan's resume takes a steaming piss over Golovkin's.

                  Popularity does mean relevancy in cases. Khan has his dedicated fan base, and that translates into relevancy as fighters would rather fight him that "relavent" fighters such as Thurman or Porter. Even now beating Khan would propel a fighters career, same cannot be said for the so called relavent fighters.

                    Clearly he's relevant.

                    He will probably fight Floyd next May.
