    One aspect of greatness if what a fighter does better than another fighter but that's not the only criteria. Plus greatness if not based on some fantasy on how your fave is going to beat some guy you have an illogical hatred for.

    And Khan beat guys that were world champions. You can twist it any way you like but that's what he did. Kotelnik holds a win over Maidana and was a top 3 light welter at the time. Khan then beat the guy everyone said he was avoiding, Maidana, and unified too.

    Why would brook be ridiculed for facing power punchers and world title holders? I don't even understand the complaint about Judah as he not only held a world title but would go on to do it yet again.

    Khan, simply put, has a better resume.

    In terms of skills and attributes, Khan is quicker, both hands and feet. He also has better punch combinations. Brook has a better chin and hits harder. The guys match up quite well.

    So no, Brook is not greater but you stick to your one point agenda and criteria.

    This is the only forum where fans would actually argue the fighter with a superior resume, more world titles and more accomplishments is worse off than a fighter with one world class win.
    So Khan is quicker with both hands and feet, how well has that served him? Khan doesn't even know how to properly utilize those tools and he doesn't change up his speed. Why is he so easy to read after the first few rounds?

    As for combination punching, Khan is not only NOT better than Brook at that, he isn't even a good combination puncher to begin with. Out of a 4-5 punch combination he'll land like one shot and it's usually insignificant.

      Kell is the better and more coordinated fighter but his resume is no where near Khans resume.

      Khan has fast hands but very predictable and easy to time. His hands are fast but his reaction is slow. Reminds me of Mosley back in the day, a lot of wasted energy.

        +1 Khan always gets in trouble after a few rounds because he is so predictable.
        Khan throws combo punches like it was preprogrammed.....

          "Maybe if Khan threw Kell a bone then his resume wont look so sh.it. It's all his fault Kell has 1 worthwhile win at age 30 with 37 fights."
          The excuses continue..

            The bar is higher than letting Zab Judah in. It would be embarrassing to let him in. he has two-three notable wins through his whole career.

                    It's served him multiple titles and wins over top 10 or top 5 opponents across 2 divisions.

                      that ignoramous hasn't been able to reply to a single boxing related issue.

                      At first he was like Brook is greater then admitted Khan had the better resume but that was still ****...so what does that make brooks resume?

                      Then he tried down playing Khan winning 2 world titles yet bigged up brook winning an IBF belt

                      Then he...well he just resorted to name calling.

                      I've embarrassed that laceddown fool in about 20 threads. I'm tired of doing it.
