I think Khan would destroy Marquez at 140, he just wouldnt be quick enough to keep up with him
I don't know about that, you don't need to be super-fast if you have great timing, and Marquez has already shown v Pacquiao (of all people) that his timing is impeccable. He's getting old however, so if the fight is to be made then it needs to be made soon.
I honestly think that bradley beats him if bradley fights smart which he usually does. Bradlet is not a big puncher but he is like a winky wright as far as knowing about the sport of boxing, just a very smart fighter. I was going to say that alexander may have a chance also but his last performance made me think that he has a while before he is totally up to his potential.
You have got to be fukkin kidding me
I feel Bradley could beat Khan. Bradley has speed, skills, heart, and the smarts to beat Khan. I also would not be surprised if Khan won but it won't be easy for either fighter.
I think a lot of the fight would deal with how Bradley reacts to getting tagged from the outside. Some guys get tentative from facing faster guys who are hitting them. Sometimes, they go into a bit of a shell, while others don't get as discouraged. An example is David Tua, who has a tendency to go into a shell, looks to set traps, and loses rounds. Luckily for him, he has a left hook from hell, and this saved him in fights.
Maidana was a different case. He kept coming, and eventually got to Khan, but Khan survived. Obviously Bradley doesn't hit as hard as Maidana, but he's more skilled and quicker. Getting Bradley's respect is very important for Khan, because Bradley has the edge at close and mid range, and Khan doesn't have the best of footwork. He has a tendency to go back in straight lines, to the ropes, and Bradley would make him pay up close. But if Bradley is too concerned about the incoming, then things change.
I'll favor Bradley to not shell up too much, and make the proper tactical adjustments to win.

khan is the best at 140 in my opinion....I think he beats bradley and alexander. Bradley and alexander really werent all that impressive in their last fights
I agree he looked like ****t against Floyd, But come on Homie it's Floyd, He makes everyone look bad. Dont matter if they are lightweights, welterweights or super welterweights, Floys is the best IMO and Khan is not Floyd. Khan is nothing special IMO. Marquez has the tools to beat him, but lets see what happens if they do fight!!!
I can see that fight happening. Heaven forbid Erik beats Jmm coz i could then see Golden Boy/team Khan chasing down a fight with Erik and i'd rather die than see Khan beat him
Bradley and alexander ,tim's style is custom for kahn maidana had pressure on him an wore him down tim is times 10 to maidana"s speed and fitness and bradley doesn't had ko power but vs kahn he will
alexander has better power and boxing at a distance is his strength but kahn has a chance against alexander
The jmm of couple of years ago and at 135 i'd have to agree but the old boys just been in too many wars, at 140 he would be out of his natural weight, Khan would have everything tilting in his favour at light-welter. Also when Jmm fought Fmj he weighed in at what 145? and he looked like he couldnt crack an egg. I like to be proven wrong though

Bradley can beat him, he has the speed and skills to beat him!! Also Ortiz, Ortiz has more power than Khan and has about equal speed. IMo if Marquez moved up to the 140 he could beat Khan because he is a btter technical fighter, im not saying he would knock him out but by UD!1
Look it seems you underestimate JM Marquez. Maidana is slow as fukk and he got to Khan, Yeah Maidana has more power than Marquez but Khan is easy to hit especially with the uppercut which is one of JM Marquez best punches and he throws it with combinations. IMO Marquez will school Khan!! Khan is not the monster people think he is, he has lousy defense!!

No-one can beat Khan at 140lb. He will beat them all, Bradley, Alexander, Marquez, Ortiz, Peterson, Judah. He is the King of the 140lb division. Y'all read it here first!
I have been saying that since roach took over man:boxing::boxing:
Khan is by far and I mean by far the most talented 140 fighter, his general boxing skills such as foot work, movement and jab is better than everyone elses
I guarantee this, khan is going to make bradley look overrated, he will win that fight by ud really easily

Ortiz is exactly the fighter i think will beat Khan.
i dont think he will get the chance to fight Khan but if he does, then i will take Ortiz by stoppage.
