    Amir Khan: most overrated fighter in the last 10 years

    This guy has to be the most talked about, hyped up, overrated guy in recent memory. His best win is against Marcos Maidana for Christ sake. Beat a shot MAB, Paulie, and Zab. That's it...where are all these great wins his fans seem to think he has?
    He got knocked out vs Garcia and Prescott and went life and death with Peterson. He's just not that good and it's fairly obvious to anyone without a rooting interest in him.
    A win over another so so fighter in Alexander(with no pop) should not put this guy anywhere near a Floyd fight. Fight Thurman,Porter,Brook,etc....get knocked out once again...

    His best win is Maidana and Maidana just fought Floyd twice and Khan is nowhere near a Floyd shot?

    Some of you on here post about the "Floyd shot" like Floyd's been mowing through a row of ATGs who are lightyears above Khan... Marcos Maidana x2? Guerrero? Ortiz?

    Anyone in rated at 140-154 and coming off a notable victory has a chance of getting the call.

      What makes you think Porter and Brook knock Khan out?

        Exactly.

        And it's for that reason that Floyd is ducking Khan now. Far too dangerous opponent for Floyd now.

        I don't think Floyd will ever fight a top rated opponent again now. He is done. But I think he will bum himself the rest of the way to 50-0 from here and retire, flying TBE banners everywhere he goes.

        This recent Khan bashing trend now is exactly the same as TMT's Manny Pac campaign. It's the same few TMT rollers trying to create the smear that Floyd is too good to fight these opponents and instead should fight "insert other bum" instead.

        Just the ramblings of complete and utter fools!

          Alexander has same amount of KO % as Porter lol.


          If anything Khan is the most underrated fighter in last 10 years.


          Look at his resume.

            I don't get what all the hate is for? Yes he's a popular guy, because he boxed in the Olympic final at 17, he's had a whole country take notice of his entire career. He has managed to achieve amazing things too. He always takes tough fights, and comes to fight. You can't question the heart or desire of amir king khan. The popularity of him is justified.

                Adrien Broner? Lucien Bute? Andre Berto? Even Mayweather and Pacquiao have been more overrated than Khan, even if the overrating made sense.

                    How's he over rated? People just hate him and don't want to believe the very obvious thing that he has the Style to give Mayweather fits.
