    He has a better resume than Thurman at 147 alone

    Porter lost to Brook

    Khan beat Devon better, Khan also beat Julio Diaz without needing 2 attempts, he also beat Collazo better than Thurman.

    Deal wiv it

      The only one that's beaten a top 5 full time welterweight is Kell Brook so there really is no ranking after that.

        After Khan beats Garcia and becomes the WBC champ (the only belt that matters), he can face Manny Pac.

        All the angry Khan haters are having a mental breakdown

        You can't stop the rise of Lord Commander Khan Snow aka the Prince Who Was Promised
        It's such a shame that you can win by knockouts isn't it?

        Moving up paid him $$$, that's all.

        Khan has achieved well beyond his ability at both 147 and 155 but only financially

        As a boxer he was average at 147 and hopeless at 155.

        When did he last hold a belt, 2011?

          Everyone seems to agree that it is beyond ridiculous that Khan is ranked above guys he's lost to, above other champions in the division, above guys who's been in the division their whole careers - despite only having fought one fringe contender in his entire 147 lbs career.

              With Pac and Floyd gone and Bradley needing a win (I still have him no. 1 though) who is clearly going to supersede Khan? I can only name Brook cause of his IBF belt. Who else? Porter? Possibly. Thurman? No. Spence? No. Algieri? No. Anyone else? No.

              So Khan at number 2 isn't that bad. I don't agree with it but then I'd only have him slightly lower.

                Beyond ridiculous

                  Khan isnt in the top 6

                  Entertaining gatekeeper and nothing more

                  Should retire but needs at least 6 months off before facing a can then a fringe prospect

                  If still up for it, he will get knocked out by anyone in the top 5 after that

                  He's done and everyone knew it years ago

                    Porter has wins over Broner, Malignaggi, Alexander (who was champ) at the weight. Plus lost a MD to Brook.

                    Thurman has wins over Guerrero, Chaves, Zaveck, Karass, Collazo and Diaz. So on top of what Khan has at the weight, Thurman has all those other guys.

                    Both of those guys should be ranked considerably higher than Khan.

                    Add Garcia to that as well. not only did he beat khan, though at another weight, he also beat a guy that beat Khan + Guerrero + wbc belt.

                    Spence would smoke Khan, so based on that alone he should be ranked higher.
