If Amir Khan wants to live up to Bradleys standards....

sven ottke won his belt in his 13th fight. if ottke could do that why does khan have to be babysat like an infantile ******?

Ottke was way older and was an amatuer for almost is career, He didnt need to be "baby" like Khan, But yes its time Khan get put in a tougher fight, Warren has done all the baby stuff for him already and at 23 he's a man now no excuses.

I dont want him wait till he's 27 or 28 like Hatton before he left warren/stepped up because when that happens they get expose quite easy.

I like Bradley too, he is in my top 5 current.

But people are acting like he is 100000X better than Khan, and i think at this stage, Bradley is only mildly better, and a little motre proven, there isn't much between them.

My Sentiments exactly, I see Bradley having superior defense and skills At the moment, but it looks like Khan ****s harder, Bradley got three years on Khan in age, and Khan is improving at such a vast rate we don't actually know when he will peak.

Ppl always picking on Khan for fighting weak opponents or past its, but that is what a young boxer needs to do at first on his way up, Bradley picked out a past it nate campbell and past it junior witter how is that any different, but his groupie ppl like to forget that, Im not hating on Bradley, I do actually like him as a boxer, I think he would beat Khan at the moment but in two years time I see Khan beating him, once khan got a bit more experience fighting some top LW's, He getting the best training you could wish for sparring with pacquaio and training with Roach.

khan needs to fight a worthy opponent but not somebody evtremely dangerous yet. someone like a lamont peterson would be to much for him at this stage. peterson is better than kotelnik IMO, bradley is just that good. peterson would likely stop khan at this stage. khan needs a few more fights to develop and then should jump in with the big boys.

The funny thing about Amir Khan's fans is that they seem to genuinely want their man to run scared of the division's big guns, as long as he can keep winning.

Pretty sad.

I think Khans not at the Peterson, Maidana, Ortiz, Urango, Holt, Torres, Hatton level yet(yes Hatton at this stage belongs in that category), he most likely gets koed by most if not all of those guys, I think the only way up for him is a fight with Nate Campbell, a genuine 50-50 fight

not even the division's big guns. they dont want him fighting anyone remotely dangerous, AKA any jr welter with a decent punch.

why not? he beat a champion. he has a belt. he beat kotelnik, who beat maidana. he should at least be at maidana's level right?
jr welter is extremely deep, he cant avoid everyone.
