    Get out of wonderland and step into reality.
    Prescott was on Primetime?

    You might want to take your own advice and wake up.

      No, what I was saying is that Bailey wasn't a legit top 10, he was just catapulted up the rankings because he happened to pick up a vacant belt.

      Being a legit top 10 means that you're an established top 10 contender in a specific division. 37 year old Randall Bailey was not.
      Bailey was a World Champion. I don't care if he picked up a vacant title at the end of the day he won an eliminator, won his title and was ranked #9 by Ring when he lost to Alexander. He is also an avoided fighter, so it is not his fault that he couldn't land lucrative names whilst he was a champ.

      Brook's win Porter himself only had one good win, one more than Bailey? Sure, but not one enough to be "legit" or "established" as you like to put it. I can even say Porter got Devon on an off night and it was a fluke, so what other win would you resort to support Porter? Diaz II? Last chance at glory Paulie?

      Established would mean guys like Bradley who've been at WW for a while at a World championship level.

      So, Alexander beat a Top 10 WW in Bailey who was a World Champion and an avoided one for that matter.

          Prescott was in 2008. Talk about clutching at straws

          It's becoming painfully obvious that you're just looking at some piece of paper and deciding on the basis of that. Do you think that being outside the top 10, then be catapulted into the #9 spot because you pick up a vacant belt means you're a legit top 10 contender? My honest opinion is that you probably never saw Bailey fight. And he was bad at that time, old and past it.

          Bailey was avoided? By who exactly?

          If you say Porter's win over Devon was a fluke, then you're an idiot it's as simple as that.

          The worst part is, I'm actually a big Khan fan. Ask anyone. But I can't stand guys like you who'll try and rewrite a part of history they know nothing about to make his forthcoming win or his career seem better.

          Which fighter on Khan's resume was a feared world champion, undefeated and was picked to knock him out in 4 rounds? No one.

          Khan has Maidana. It can be discussed, on the basis of Maidana's success after their fight, whether he was as good a win as Porter. But I know you're not trying to come and say that the likes of Judah and Malignaggi were anywhere near Porter's level because then you'd be a fool.
