    I like both Peterson and i think he does have what it takes to beat Bradley provided he does what we said.........let that right hand go.

    I would not mind seeing the fight, Peterson Bros look like they have what i takes and they seem to have enough experience behind them now so....

    Is it Anthony or Lamont that is an excellent Body puncher, they might both be but i noticed in one of their fights how effective one of them was at going down stairs, i cant remember because i get them mixed up
    Lamont commits more to the body and has more in his right hand. Anthony's right hand seem non-existent at times. Lamont also never seems to get out of his game plan where as Anthony free lances at times. Overall I think Lamont is the real deal and Anthony still has a little ways to go. I was dissappointed when Anthony had to pull out of the Cherry fight because that would have told where Anthony is really at in his career.

      I hope he gets his shot.

If that falls through then the Bradley card would be a good choice for Khans US debut and could build up a future Bradley Khan fight.
        Khan on a undercard is where he deserves to be. In the UK he is starting to be an Icon. If he looks impressive during massive US exposure vs Salita(***ish for the storyline) the sky is the limit. His boxing skills are there but his chin and defense are whats in question. If he loses to Salita he will be in the UK for a long time. After that fight a Hatton, Maidana, or Bradley fight would bring him in Bookoo dollars.

          Bradley does loop his right hand cause his height, but does hook immediatly after getting his foe into position. A fight with Peterson might be very technical between both fighters and might not be exciting cause their styles. Khan would have the physical advantages but Bradley fights like Stevie Johnston but on the right hand side. Train to fight taller fighters aggressively. Stevie had a better chin though

            Just checked out Salita on boxrec and he looks like a typical Khan opponent, Bet Frank Warren is happy, gives him an excuse to delay the Bradley fight for a while. Frank Warren is all talk no action, this fight won't happen. Glad to hear Khan might be on the Cotto-Pacquiao undercard though, it would at least mean we get a proper PPV value headliner on a Khan featured card.

              Khan vs. Bradley? seems this is a good match for unification bouts. Bradley is fast but Khan is faster, and Bradley's chin is yet to be tested while Khan's chin is already exposed. This fight should happen, though I understand that they should go pass over their mandatory challengers first before making this fight a reality. If this happens, I would rather pick for Khan because I believes that being fast while fists laden with high percentage of KO's would mostlikely ensures winnings on this match.

                i still fear for khan's chin - its best if he fights someone lightfisted like malignaggi

                  This is why I like Bradley, and respect him... he is willing to fight anybody... anywhere, fair play to him... any Boxing fan should respect that.

                  Pretty soon, give him time and he will be one of my favorite fighters if he continues to do what hes doing...

                      Thoughts on Bradley, Khan, and the Peterson's

                      Love the idea of a doubleheader on Shotime between these two. Doubt it will happen. Love the idea of Khan vs Salita on Pacquiao vs Cotto... think it could happen.... Bradley would beat Khan's ass winning atleast 8 rounds and possibly knocking him out. I give Khan his credit in the last fight. He beat a top 10 ranked guy and a title holder. But when I look at The Ring's current top ten at 140, with the exception of Kotelnik, I'm not sure Khan beats any of those guys. Maybe Devin Alexander, but I'm not even sure about that one. Based on the Kotelnik fight, it doesn't really appear that Khan can fight on the inside. Khan's defense on the inside consists of pushing the other man's head down and getting away. Bradley would destroy him on the inside. Sure Khan has very good hand speed, but it appeared to me his punches weren't that strong and at times appeared to be a tad slappy. Bradley is too good all around to lose this fight... atleast at this point in time.

                      The Peterson brothers... I like the Peterson brothers. I'd like to see them fight more and I'd like to see them do well. As far as Lamont vs Bradley, Lamont gets smashed in this one too. I thought it Lamont's last fight he still seemed a bit immature and has alot of work to do. Just appeared as more of a good athlete with some raw talent. No way is he ready to beat a Tim Bradley.
