Ranking The Best Fighters In The World
Amir Khan
WBA Junior Welterweight Titleholder 24 1 (17)
Last Year s Ranking: 42
Status Report: Good news: Khan took everything Marcos Maidana could give him and stayed upright, more or less (W 12). The bad: Maidana is slower than erosion and still landed enough to nearly lay Khan out. Still, in wins over Dmitriy Salita (KO 1), and Paul Malignaggi (KO 11) Khan was hardly touched. Soft chin and leaky defense or not, his offense will take him a long way.
Future: Call us crazy, we think Khan will meet the winner of Tim Bradley Devon Alexander.
