Khan potential for greatness... or disaster

[Kev]

So he fights Maidana and all of a sudden he's above all these other fighters? Khan record isnt that great man I wouldnt jump to conclusions. Maidana fought Ortiz thats about it, for legit wins for him.

Haha, but it's better than practically every other 24 year olds resume in the sport.

Criticising Khan's resume for a 24 year old is as ridiculous as the Manny haters demanding to know where are all the undefeated, young fighters in their prime on his record since moving to welterweight. Yes indeed, where are they! I can only think of Berto, and even according to Manny's hater's he would be an easy fight because he's not ready and overated.

So it seems Manny can be legitimately criticised for failing to fight potential undefeated prime fighters that don't even actually exist at this time.

Thus it is with Khan, that wins over Barrera, Malignaggi, Kotelnik and Maidana are not good enough and do nothing to detract from the view that his opponents are handpicked.

It's funny in their eyes he avoids all of the real challenges, but at the same time doesn't deserve a shot at those who they think would beat him...

In response to Bilbo, where did I say his record was bad? I said it wasnt that great. Its good but I dont think it puts him a class above anyone right now in the top 10. First off Kotelnik is decent that was legit. The Barrera fight was bs, Malignaggi is a feather fisted poof, and Maidana is highly overrated for his Ortiz win.

You are usually spot on with most topics mate but have a little think about what you have said.

Khan has two wins over the current number 4 and 5 in the division but according to you his record does no put him a class ahead of any of the other top ten.

Well we will find out soon enough once we see what Paulie looks like in his next fight as well as Maidana, if he fights anyone decent. I think Paulie is on the slide, and Maidana can be outboxed.
