People forget Bradley is the king at 140 NOT Khan

If it was about money wouldn't he have chose a guaranteed biggest payday against Khan instead of fighting weaker opponents to stay undefeated? He could have fought Khan won and then had an even greater chance of getting a Pacquiao fight. He admitted he was afraid of losing. Two things are untrue in this post.. 1.Weaker opponents??Opponents meaning more then one,can you name these so called weak opponents??Bradley fought Casa who let's be honest,is the equivalent of Mccloskey..Now he is fighting Pacmonster,umm so that is false..He did not fight weaker opponents,to avoid Khan..He fought who TR(his new promotion team)put in front of him..He had no idea who he'd be fighting when he signed with TR..But that was a better deal then what Khan offered so there you go.. 2.Bradley never said he was not fighting Khan because what if he lost..When he did say what if I lose,it was directed at a question about Shaw not about Khan..Comprehension is key when listening to an interview..

I think most people don't count that as a loss anymore after Peterson admitted to cheating in the fight. The fight will probably get changed to a NC and Khan most likely gets the belts back. In all fairness, that's what should happen, let's be honest. It happened in Ruiz vs Toney after Toney got caught, it happened in Viloria vs Nino after Nino got caught, the fights got changed to a NC after those guys were tested positive. Would you argue against Khan vs Peterson being an NC because I don't think many would now? If Peterson cheated against Khan,who's to say he did not cheat against Bradley??Bottom line is Khan did not handle Peterson in the same fashion as Bradley..I would not argue for a cheat,so if the fight was change to a NC you will hear nothing from me on the matter..But I would still have what each looked like against a common opponent,and Bradley looked far better...Not to mention it won't change the fact that Bradley still has the better resume..Nothing Khan can do to change that..

It wasn't about one fight, it was about more money. ...which Bradley felt he wouldn't be able to obtain if he fought Khan due to the risk of losing. Hence a duck.

If it was about money wouldn't he have chose a guaranteed biggest payday against Khan instead of fighting weaker opponents to stay undefeated? He could have fought Khan won and then had an even greater chance of getting a Pacquiao fight. He admitted he was afraid of losing. Because it paid less than the contract he got with Top Rank.

Hindsight is a marvellous thing. Bradley had no guarantee he would get the Pacquiao fight and wasn't even first choice. Stop trying to use Pacquiao as a reason he ducked Khan at the time it was a plain old duck. It wasn't about one fight, it was about more money.

You can't duck a guy saying the reason is "what if I lose" and be ranked above him in my eyes. Must be an American thing.

It's a pretty pointless debate. Whatever the reason for the fight not happening, until they actually do fight then neither can be considered king, and no amount of nuthugging is going to change that. I don't see a ring belt in either man's collection. Although, it is a shame this fight isn't happening at 140, as Manny is technically still the lineal champ after beating Hatton. A Bradley victory over Manny at 140 wouldn't get him the ring belt, but it would secure his place as the 'man that beat the man', and therefore unquestionably the top dog in the division. Unfortunately that sh*t isn't happening, so until the day comes that Khan and Bradley get it on, there ain't no 'king' at 140.

Bradley > Khan

He still ducked Khan Period!!! He can fight 10 Pacquiaos for all i care, Facts still facts and the fact was he ducked Khan.

But he lost..End of story and your point... I think most people don't count that as a loss anymore after Peterson admitted to cheating in the fight.

Exactly. That's the truth which ever way you look at it. Bradley refused to fight Khan so Khan instantly takes the top spot by default. But he lost..End of story and your point...

So just because he beat Lamont means he's the 140 pound king? http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lmdq0wsKk61qcvhgo.gif Khan lost in a highly controversial decision against a guy who admitted to cheating in that fight... Not to mention Bradley ducked Khan and a 50/50 split to fight Casamayor. Look man, had Khan dominated Peterson like Bradley did than you could have a case that Khan is the "king" at 140, but he LOST. You can point to roids, but for all we know Peterson probably juiced against Tim and still lost so it's a moot point. I've talked enough about Bradley "ducking" Khan to want to get into it again. All I will say is look who Bradley is fighting next, one of the p4p tops fighters in the world. Looks like he had bigger fish to fry instead of lame ass Khan. My last point, Bradley is in the p4p top 10 list by almost anybody with decent knowledge of the sport; Amir Khan isn't. So how the F are you gonna rank Khan in anything higher than Bradley? lol Anyways, Khan can have the 140 division, Tim is moving up to welter weight to battle it out for p4p kingship. lol

People forget Bradley refused to fight Khan. Whatever his reasons are, that is a clear duck in my book; ergo Khan is number one at 140. Exactly. That's the truth which ever way you look at it. Bradley refused to fight Khan so Khan instantly takes the top spot by default.

Bradley is the man and YES he should have fought Khan BUT i understand he went for the mega fight cause win or lose he can still fight Khan cause he still has leverage at 140 People forget Bradley refused to fight Khan.

Bradley is the man and YES he should have fought Khan BUT i understand he went for the mega fight cause win or lose he can still fight Khan cause he still has leverage at 140 Bradley is undefeated and that's all he has. Once he loses to Pacquiao he won't have any leverage for any big fights.

Makes sense. Bradley is a live opponent and I agree that he's the guy to beat at 140. But what do you see that can actually trouble Pacquiao ? I'm talking style wise. I mean, it's kind of a tricky fight to predict because I can see a lot of possibilities. On one hand I can see Bradley swarming Pacquiao the whole night to outhustle him for a UD, but on the flip side I can see Manny stopping him because of the same reason. IDK man, a headbutt is almost inevitable and that most likely will favor Bradley if it's ruled "unintentional".

So just because he beat Lamont means he's the 140 pound king? http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lmdq0wsKk61qcvhgo.gif Khan lost in a highly controversial decision against a guy who admitted to cheating in that fight... Not to mention Bradley ducked Khan and a 50/50 split to fight Casamayor. No becuase Bradley has never lost at 140lb and has never been KO'd in a matter of sec's..That's why he is the num 1 Jr WW..Deal with it,he has a better resume and it's only getting better...

Khan is the king Bradley fought only 1 ranked fighter @140 the last 3 years Yet Bradley has fought more higher ranked opponents then Khan overall...Funny..
