    Collazo and Alexander are not worth a mention? Khan has looked better than ever at 147.

    Alexander had already been beat up by Porter and Collazo had beaten Ortiz who's arguably finished, again neither guy was top 10 at 147, so what has he done to merit a shot against Cotto, Mayweather, or Pacquiao?

    Khan has taken time to be good at welterweight. You would think he would need the same amount of time to adjust at light middle especially as he wants to face Cotto.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Khan is one KO loss away from irrelevance.

    If he gets KO'd or stopped like he did against Prescott and Garcia again, it's over for him.

    Khan should be focusing on fighting someone of relevance at welter, Khan vs Thurman sounds good, and I'd probably pick Thurman by mid rounds ko, people forget that Khan has been brutally KTFO not once but twice, his chin hasn't gotten any better as Diaz showed, and the guys up North of 147 just hit that much harder, delusional if they really think he'd be able to do anything above welter

    It's only a matter of time before Khan gets knocked out again.
