That would be worth more in terms of boxing kudos....unless your aim is to make as much money in the shortest space of time with the least amount of risk....you get 0 respect from me.
    So now you wouldn't even be impressed if he went after Marquez in 2010?

    You're insane

    Khan is 22, just 22 for gawds sake, and he's already beaten Barrera and won a world title.

    NOBODY else in the WORLD at his age has a better name on their record than Barrera.

    Joe Calzaghe, Ricky Hatton and Lennox Lewis are our greatest fighters of modern times. Their best wins were all against greats on the slide. Hatton beat Kosta Tszyu at the end of his career, coming off a year layoff, Calzaghe beat a 40 something year old Hopkins and a badly faded Jones Jr, and Lennox beat a shot Mike Tyson and a battleworn Evander Holyfield.

    And they all beat these guys towards the end of their careers, or in Hattons case his late prime, as kind of crowning acomplishments.

    Yet if Khan, who has already beaten Barrera, was then to face another Mexican legend at just age 23 it wouldn't impress you because Marquez would be a year or so past his past.

    You're hating has made you delusional.
    Yeah moaning at a 22 year old for not fighting world class prime fighters is a bit bizarre. I can't think of many who have.
    try fighting other contenders...like I said earlier but got ignored.

    Are Kotelnik and Salita not at the supposed standard of other contenders?

    I don't think there is currently an opponent fighting between 130-140 that would impress Missy.

    I'm sure she'd shrug off Juan Diaz as being finished, Malignaggi as being a powderpuff, Katsidis as being overated, Marquez is too old. At junior welter well obviously Nate Campbell is too old, Devon Alexander is unproven, Victor Ortiz is a quitter, Maidana just got lucky against a weak willed Ortiz etc.

    Maybe if he stepped up and beat Manny, but even then it would only because they were sparring partners therefore he got to learn everything about him and was home prepared.

    For instance the IBO has salita ranked at 46 - Khan at 8! Why fight someone so low in the rankings. Salita is missing from the major players.

    If there's anyone's rankings you can rely on, it's the IBO.

    And i mean that in a completely non-sarcastic way

    Salita is shit and always has been he was given a gift on the RJJ V Calzaghe undercard, Khan won well done but against a guy who has fought no one. I predicted Khan ko early probably 4, the fight went exactly how I thought it would Salita would just be overwelmed with punches.

    Khan needs to step it up before we can start to say hes a great fighter.

    Well really it shows how piss poor all "world" titles are.

    But you need to fight your mandatory or get stripped. This was a perfect opportunity to get that out the way.

    Missy, I'm curious what could Khan do that would earn your respect.

    I fucking despise Carl Froch, but he did earn some of my respect in beating Pascal & Taylor & he'd get a lot of it if he won the Super 6.

    So what would Khan have to do or who would he have to beat for you to say he's a good/excellent fighter?

    The obvious answer is NOTHING. Khan messed with his boy Barrera and his/her feelings about Khan will never change.

    Nothing. It's a gypsy blood feud to the death.

    Well i can't speak for Missy but im just guessing here, i think she would give him respect if he beat either of these guys.

    Timothy Bradley vs Lamont Peterson winner
    Nate Campbell
    Juan Diaz vs Paul Malignaggi winner
    Kendall Holt
    Devon Alexander
    Marcos Rene Maidana
    Mike Alvrado

    Any of these would be fine, and at some point. He has to revenge that KO loss to Breidis Prescott aswell.

    Well let's look at some of the names you've listed....

    Bradley

    An SD over Witter and a win over Holt. Two fighter's who've collectively not really achieved all that much. I'll give Bradley credit for how he set about Nate Campbell but i don't think he excels in anything. Just a good solid, but very beatable fighter imo. Out of everyone on the list, i'd imagine Bradley would be the biggest scalp - but that's not saying much.

    Malignaggi

    Gained more fame from his losses than he has from his victories. Not beaten anybody of note. Didn't really deserve to beat Ngoudjo. Best win over Lovemore N'Dou. Wow. Then he rematched him and did much worse. Still, managed to blag a free hair cut out of it.

    Holt

    Managed to KO Torres with his head which to be fair, takes some skills. Otherwise spectacular MD and SD wins over Ben Tackie and D-Hop respectively. He also holds a win over p4p champ Mighty Mike Arnaoutis and actually was responsible for the funniest knockdown i've probably ever seen - Bradley. Belter. Looks a lot like the guy who has his bike nicked in 'Friday', so at least he has marketability on his side.

    Alexander

    The only name on his resume is an injured, faded Junior Witter who's ability was questionnable to begin with. Alexander clearly has talent - but so does Khan, only Alexander's resume is weaker. If Khan got hardly any credit for boxing Kotelnik silly, why would he get credit for beating Alexander?

    Maidana

    Lost to Kotelnik. Some say unfairly, some say justifiably. Nearly got chinned by a guy who doesn't really like Boxing in Victor Ortiz. Great fight. Not a great fighter.

    Alvarado

    Please explain how his record is any better than Salita's or Kotelnik's? How many top 20/30 fighters has he beaten?


    It's not that any of the above fighters are bad fighters, because they are obviously not. But i don't see how any of them are that much better than Kotelnik, and Khan didn't get much kudos for that win. Infact he's got pretty much cock all for ko'ing Dimitry Salita inside 76 seconds. He'd have to beat that lot in the same night get any credit on here. That would be a shit hot prizefighter actually.
