Khan got hit with punches that were so telegraphed from Maidana that it's not even funny. They were punches that were looping as hell and had no technique behind them practically. I'm not saying Maidana isn't a tough guy. But people are basing Khan's supposed invincibility on that fight and I just don't see it.
In reality, Alexander's punching technique sucks too but it's hard to make it look like you are not getting hit by them because he throws them with speed. And Bradley has quicker reflexes and reaction time to get out of the way of big shots than Khan does. He's got better ring intelligence, better stamina, and is just a smarter fighter. I don't think he'll have an easy time with Khan or anything like that but I think he will beat him in the long run.
And while Khan has better power in his arsenal to make Bradley respect him unlike Devon did, I still see Bradley pouring it on and making Khan get on his bike just like Alexander was tonight. Khan showed that he is tentative against guys who put pressure on him and I expect it to be no different if he fights Bradley. And this fight better happen, but if it doesn't we know it will be Khan's fault.

yeah yeah. khan will annihilate both of those bums.
Bradley's punches are straighter and are harder to see coming. Just watch each guy box and you'll see what I'm saying.
Bradley has a clubbing right hand.
Maidana has explosive power in both fists.
Bradley's footwork is underrated and his versatility could give Khan some problems, but I don't think Bradley's power comes anywhere close to Maidana's.
maidanas pressure and improved boxing is under rated,also some of i think was khan being happy to get hit to prove his chin and willingness to fight and entertain on his vegas debut.
put alexander with maidana,miadana could well win by big KO.
I think Maidana would beat Alexander too, but Alexander is still a hard fighter to impress against.
You're equating Maidana's looping punches with Bradley's looping punches?
1+1 does not = 1 my friend.
Bradley might as well have Marshmallows over his fists compared to Maidana's bombs.
