    In terms of overall accomplishments, no. Khan lost most of his biggest fights and has some bad KO losses.

    But in terms of quantity i.e. number of top opponents faced, yes without a doubt.

    During his title run only Salita (now a promoter) was ranked out of the top-10: Kotelnik (WBA), Salita*, Malinaggi, Maidana, McCloskey (#10), Judah (IBF), Peterson**, Garcia.

    That's 7 out of 8 fights. You don't see that anymore tbh. He later added Collazo, Alexander and Algieri to his resume. Losses to Canelo and Crawford too.

    I agree with TS that Khan was stiffed against Peterson, who was on synthetic testosterone anyway. Still to this day I think that should be given as a DQ win for Khan or a NC. And it should have been a 3-belt unification with Garcia and a 1v2. Garcia's reign at 140 should have started with that fight. At least Ring correctly had it for their vacant title.

    Khan isn't HOF. If he wins a title in this stacked 147 division then yeah, but that's not happening. If he was more active and had added some names to his resume then he could perhaps have built such a deep resume that he'd get in but he hasn't done that either. Big wins could have been Kell Brook, D. Garcia rematch, J. Vargas, Broner, Maidana rematch (not that I'd favour him in all those fights). I always felt he had the beating of Tim Bradley also, Tim swerved Khan to go the WBO route to fight Pac, and it ultimately worked out for him and his legacy. But I think Tim knew Khan at 140 was too big and fast for him.

And around that axis - you've SE15, SE17 and SE5, hence back in day until recently, the 3 areas used to be seen as one and guys from there did everything together.

      It doesn't take rocket science to know that a walkaway over Albany rd connecting North Peckham and Aylesbury is feasible. And there was one back in the day before it was knocked down because the police couldn't go there and the areas were crime infested with drug addicts and heroin needles everywhere. I was there and I know. Stop arguing, you idiot.

      This is a similar estate to Aylesbury estate in Wolverhampton called "Heath Town" (similar architecture because it's huge as well but not as big and I've been there a few times):



      ^^^That's the type of walkaway Aylesbury estate used to have that goes across Albany rd, to connect North Peckham before it was knocked down.

      I'm really done now. You don't want to see the old me in Avirex jacket and Reebok classic or Wallabees. So watch yer mouth. You're not from London, you just moved recently. And stop stealing Giggs' life story. LMAO.
      So wheres the proof it was ever there? I know for a fact there was never anything like that going over Albany Road or Burgess Park. All you gotta do it prove it. I know you can't. That's why youre looking like a mug. Youre doing alot of talk about my life getting taken aint ya? Seems like you think youre something special, something like a gangster. What is it your saying you're gonna do exactly. Coz I think your a sad loner who's full of ****... Oh Btw, its called Wells way, not Wells Road, everyone knows that, thats where the Lynn AC is, if you was local you'd know that, mug.

        LMAO. Like the rest of the mentally impaired Fury fans - he's a special case. But he's actually worse than the rest because he's claiming where he isn't from and also claiming a popular London rapper's life story as his. LMAO.

        This forum definitely has loads of losers and blockheads whose existence depends on trolling. These idiots don't even watch boxing.

        Fury has zero unification and zero title defences in 13 yrs, yet these numbnuts think he has the best resume because he beat the bum, Wilder, and 28 other bums. LMAO. He shouldn't even have been in the ring with Wlad after failing PED test against Hammer.

          Mug who thinks he's taking lives coz he walked through a tough area. Just get any map, pic, or news report of that walkway going across Burgess connecting two estates that were never connected, until then your a plastic gangster wannabe. So what you saying?

                Hell NO. His resume is mediocre and worst then ever after quitting to Crawford and then cherry picking tiny Dbbs. Even washed Brook is better and would beat him if Khan had the balls to fight Brook who has been calling him out for ever. Khan has not been a world champion since being KO by Garcia many years ago. He has the worst chin of any high level boxer.The UK has many excellent undefeated boxers so why do you insult them all by saying Khan is better than they are? Khan is one of the richest UK boxers so I'll give him credit for that.

                    All the best names on Khan's resume beat him lol. His best win is Maidana. The other "names" he beat were shot to ****.
