I do think Horse that now even on achievements Khan should be above Thaxton..... Thaxton's best wins since his return - Meager, Lawton and Stewart (a major struggle) - I say Limond, Lawton and Earl eclipse them - espcially if you look at the manor of wins.

Thanks.

I do take both into account, but achievement demonstrates ability, so it means more to me.

You seem to be forgetting Khan's "major struggle" with Limond.

Based on recent results I think they are about level, I gave the benefit of the doubt to Thaxton, as Khan has just entered the list.

Was it really a major struggle - did Khan lose any other rounds - really it was a similar struggle as Cooper vs Clay.

Having a major struggle vs Limond is better than having a major struggle vs Stewart IMO.

Khan almost got stopped, so I would call it as major a struggle as Thaxton had against Stewart.

You could be right.

They should be fighting each other soon, so we will find out who really should be higher soon enough (hopefully).
