Why is Amir Khan ranked higher than Danny Garcia?

[VG_Addict]

Khan could legitimately be considered the number 1 at welterweight, he forced Mayweather to retire, basically a checkmate move in chess. Pacquiao is likely going to duck him and retire too in all probability. Not that he's fought the best possible opponents, but he tried to make fights with two of the very best at the weight and they both ducked. This means that Khan's attempts to prove he was the best couldn't happen because the perceived "best" fighters avoided him, and prevented him from proving it in the ring.

If you're making these top level guys duck and ultimately retire you could legitimately be placed above them all to be fair to the kid. Is it time for Khan to be universally recognized as the King of 147 at least for the time being until his ascension to 154?

Khan won't win a title at 154.

I was looking at The Ring's current rankings and noticed Khan is ranked 3 welterweight and Garcia is ranked number 9? Garcia has no losses, Khan has 3 loss and Garcia knocked out Khan. Why is this so?

question should be why is Khan ranked #3 period

are you serious? you obviously don't know **** about boxing.

Khan's best win at welterweight is Devon Alexander or Chris Algieri. How many other welterweights can even compare to that? He could arguably be #1 at welterweight with Floyd (and excluding Pacquiao) retired.

But Khan won the first round doe. LMAO but seriously Lamont is better than anybody Khan has beaten at WW. However Lamont hasn't done anything at WW either so the rankings are justified.

I guess Oscar wasn't fooled by that "win".

Well maybe you should have given a hint you were being sarcastic. It wouldn't have taken much more effort to put a sarcasm tag at the end.
