How do you see the 140 tournament going?

[Fox McCloud]

Prelim fights are:

Khan vs. Maidana - WBA title
Alexander vs. Ortiz - WBC title

Final is the unification fight between the winners.

I feel this tournament is a tad bit hollow, considering Bradley, who is considered the top titleholder, isn't included. I would say Pacquiao should be in it, but he obviously has NO TIME for this sort of chump change considering the fights he has lined up.

[baracuda]

what happened to bradley vs alexander unification?...

[NakiFan]

Well the first question has to be why the **** doesnt ortiz/maidana be put in the 1st, oh yeah because Ortiz is a hbo hype job who they want to protect.

Khan would win the whole thing if he got anyone but maidana first up.

I pick alexander beats Maidana in the final

[Silencers]

Actually if that's the bracket it looks like HBO might be trying to set up Ortiz-Maidana 2.

I don't think Alexander has the power to hurt Ortiz so that should be an interesting fight, I might edge toward Ortiz.

Khan can outbox Maidana but if he gets caught, he's going down.

[TheCheetah]

It's official?

[Bhopreign]

Alexander beats Ortiz I know that.

[NakiFan]

Khan is a much better fighter than maidana, i think he may do it but with a puncher like that he's one punch away from disaster.

Ortiz is a disgrace, i think alexander can beat him.

[Fox McCloud]

I've got Ortiz over Khan...

I think Khan can partially fix his chin issues by extreme conditioning and get the win over a fairly slow Maidana.

Ortiz will probably beat Alexander. A good boxer puncher can usually beat a slickster, because they have the technical skills to keep up, and can get more credit from the judges for each punch because it is perceived to be harder.

I think Ortiz will probably be able to hurt Khan a few times and take this one by decision.

I'm glad there are so many differing opinions on this. This should be a good thread.

[Chunk..]

If Khan didn't have the chin problem, he'd walk this IMO. That said i still think he'd win these tourney based on his superior boxing ability compared to other three guys in the poll.

He showed signs of a good defense in his last fight very quickly under the guidance of Freddie Roach and the more time they train together i don't think Khan's chin is gonna be as much as an issue in the future as people on here make it out to be.

Khan beats Alexander in the final BTW.
