    Marcos Rene Maidana ( WBA Interim Light Welterweight champ)

    Junior Witter ( Former WBC Light Welterweight champ)

    Kendall Holt ( Former WBO Light welterweight champ)

    Ricardo Torres ( Former WBO Light Welterweight champ)

    Juan Manual Marquez

    Ricky Hatton ( Former Number 1 )

    Juan Diaz vs Paulie Mallinaggi winner

    Juan Urango ( IBF Light Welterweight champ)

    and even Demetrius Hopkins

    I just feel to fully believe in him again we need to see him fight a fighter who will test him.
    You want to see a fighter who will test him but list Junior Witter and Demetrius Hopkins?? Both are shite mate.

    You list Witter but not Alexandar the guy who make Witter quit??

    Then why would you want to see him fight Holt? He can't punch for shit. He caught Bradley with a massive punch, and while he dropped him, Bradley was never seriously hurt. The only reason he stopped Torres was because of a head-butt.
    Holt hits harder then you think....Though he is not a massive puncher by any means he does have more of the 1 punch shot if he lands flush and sits down on a shot....More suited to KO a guy like Kahn then a massive puncher that Kahn will certainly avoid shots....

    Speaking of Torres I thought about picking him off the list but Kahn would be avoiding the power all night long going into the fight so less of a chance he would get caught

    Don't be fooled by Holt's KO ratio.

    That guy can crack when he sits down on his shots. His counter punching style is why he doesn't have many KOs.

    Bradley getting up was more to do with Bradleys recovering powers and conditioning, not Holt's "lack" of power.
    I was surprised how Bradley handled that for sure...Even after popping back up he realized he jumped up too quick and made sure he knelt for a few seconds not too jump right back in the fight too quick..

    Good points, and he will be criticized because he is not a complete package (actually already is criticized for that) rigfht from the get go, Many fighters don't peak until they are mid to late 20's...

    I don't like or dislike Kahn as a fighter I am up in the air about him....

    people given warren shit, and i have my self... but he does throw his fighters in risky fights...

    not to get into the who ducked who things but he made top offeres for hopkins and roy to ight joe in their prime, he pitted enzo against haye and salita was undefeated....

    i do disslike him now, but i admit apart from the chin the boy has everything any fighter could dream of...

    he has stupid fast hand speed and good power... the chin to me is no longer a question, its shit and he seems to have no recovery. But under roach i believe he can beat most out there with his speed and roaches training...

    i think a lost of poeple in the UK want him to fail because he got to cocky, after a few fighs saying he could go 4 round and beat mayweather...

    I listed Witter and Hopkins Because there fringe contenders and more than he has fought so far i didn't mention Bradley or Alexander because there both to much for him at this point and you can all say what you want about Witter he can whack.

    Yeah that is just cockyness nfor sure, PBF managed to take fighters like Corrales, DLH, Hatton, Castillo and do what he wanted most of the time.....Kahn has not even really earned the right to call anyone out thus far...In a couple of years if he keeps on this track but to call out guys like PBF certainly stupid braggart talk....

    Khan has never called out Floyd Mayweather, in fact the only fighter he has ever called out is Kotelnik.

    Saying you can beat a fighter and calling them out is just about the same thing.....Assuming they fight somewhere near your weight class and the fight is plausable...

    I personally never heard him make the comment about Floyd I was just more or less commenting on the fact if he did as was said....

    I've seen four Holt fights and while he's a very crisp, sharp puncher I've never considered him as having serious power. However, I do agree that he would be a good test for Khan and he'd definitely land some shots.

    He really didn't call out Mayweather. I believe he made a joke, a long time ago, about being able to beat Mayweather in a four round fight when he was asked about his progression as a fighter.

    That sounds a little more like it makes sense....Like I said I never heard him call Floyd out, I think Preme said in his post he heart it
