    For the Pacquiao fight I've always mentioned Alexander and Algieri, have I not?

    His previous resume is normally to make comparison with Brook or taking exception to your claims.

    Khan is going to retire soon. But your house on it. Brook will fight the big names because he wants to fight the best. That's a big difference between him and Khan.

    Brook wants Garcia, Bradley, Khan, Pacquiao, Thurman.

    Khan wants: Mayweather, Pacquaio - or no fight.
    Will fight: Bizier, Eggington and Bradley...............................Skeete.

      He would make him look like Jo Jo Chris, not AlGGGieri like Khan did.
      What would people have said if Khan had a padded resume with 30 plus bums like Kell's then got his hand on a belt and fought: Salita, Mitchell and then pulled out of his best fight as a World champ lets put in Lovemore Ndou?

      Brook pulls out so much I'm surprised he even has kids.

        Yeah you compare Khan's resume from half a decade ago. How about we do it after the Chaves fight and compare the last couple of years as you are talking about.

        Well, he's got a fight with a top 10 ranked opponent next. Then probably his mandatory, unless he can get Bradley in a unification.

        In the meantime, Khan will probably fight Lamont Peterson and that's it.

        Wear and tear though. Fighting the Malignaggis of the world I mean, it's tough man.

          They would probably criticize him quite a bit since he's had millions pumped into his career from his first fight unlike Brook.

            That its Brook 2nd best win? But I agree Khan isn't very deserving, and while Marg may have been even less deserving, hed easily beat anyone on Khans resume, and murder Khan himself

              I don't even think he's better than Senchenko. Senchenko was ranked inside the top 10 for years before Brook fought him.

              Margarito would have retired Khan for good.

                Because it shows where each fighter is coming from. Even in two years Margarito beat undefeated Cotto which absolutely craps all over everything Khan has done in his entire career. You didn't mention that ;-)

                So yeah who is better?

                I don't think so. I can't possibly see what Khan has done in 3-4 years at the weight , let alone two years that says he's more deserving of guy that took Cotto's soul two years prior to fighting Pacquiao. He might have lost to Mosley, and it was a brutal one-sided beatdown. But Mosley is a great fighter.

                In comparison, Khan has been put on the floor by Julio Diaz two years ago, and has been hurt by Chris Algieri, who actually came out with a raised stock. And it was a cherrypick. Come on people.
                Yes he is, clearly. Let's not pretend that he isn't.

                No Margarito beat Cotto over 2 years before Pacquaio.

                Well Mosley was a cherry pick for Margarito and he ended up getting destroyed and Mosley's stock went through the roof. And that was nearly 2 years prior to the Pacquaio fight.

                I've never said Khan deserves the fight, he doesn't.

                But it's not joke levels like Margarito was. And Khan clearly deserves it more than he did.

                  But then on the same token you compare Margarito's resume from 4 years ago?

                    Yeah just checked, 2 years and 4 months. Big deal.

                    He clearly doesn't, but I don't see a lot of difference between him and margarito other than Margarito's career resume crapping all over Khan's and him being a way more dangerous fighter.

                    But as I said, never even said Margarito deserved the fight. Just I think he deserved it more than Amir "I'll wait until my hero calls" Khan.

                    I think Crawford deserves the fight most, and he's also a better fighter than Khan.

                      Yes, but he said "a lot can happen in two years".

                      But he's still pulling up these names from more than half a decade ago, who even then weren't anything special aside from Maidana. Khan himself has taken minimum risk ever since fighting Garcia. At least Margarito fought Mosley.

                      So i'm just wondering where the logic is in that.
