Comments Thread For: Team Devon Alexander Place Timothy Bradley on Notice

Devon shoudn't get ahead himself. Urango can be very tough.

The only reason he fought Nate was for a bigger pay day.

That being said. Alexander vs. Bradley could be a pretty good fight.

I just think Bradley is to much for Devon at this point.

Maybe to much for anyone at 140.

I been saying the bold for a while now.

It would be great if the Alexander/Urango winner would fight Bradley for the WBC/WBO/IBF belts.

Which is excatly what khan is doing so its funny hearing shaw giving him grieve, when marquez is a bigger fight than campbell was by far

Ahh, so that's the reason Bradley had to give up one of the belts immediately after the Holt fight. How soon afterwards would he have had to face Alexander? I seem to remember it was much too soon or something, which would be understandable.

Nonetheless, I hope Bradley goes after the winner of Alexander-Urango, and Khan stops being a ***** fighting blown up FWs. At this rate there's a good chance we could get an undisputed champ at 140 within the next few years if everyone plays ball (or another tournament is accounced; although with some guys on HBO and others on Showtime, that might be wishful thinking).

he just owned Shaw damn good with his arguments. I am a sure viwere for Bradley vs Alexander.

[street bully]

Alexander wins the fight when it happens.

[mrlopez]

damn, looks like fat, sweatsuit wearing bi.tchasshaw got his ass pwned!!!!!
He shouldnt have talked sh.it about what Khan is doing when he and his boy did the same thing....
Would be a good fight if it happened though.

Alexander vs Bradley would be excellent. If that was scheduled I'd be looking forward to that more than any of the Pacquiao or Mayweather fights...

The only problem is I really like both guys...

It's not at all the same thing really.

For one thing, most people at the time considered Campbell to be a much bigger threat to Bradley than Alexander was. No one thought of it as a duck. Whereas, because of Khan's chin and Maidana's power, and the fact that Roach has repeatedly said he doesn't want the fight because it's too high risk, avoiding Maidana is a clear duck. And although Marquez was a great Jnr Lightweight and a good Lightweight, he simply doesn't belong north of 135, especially against an exceptionally tall and fast fighter for his weight; and that's what Roach is banking on. Marquez had lost a lot of his speed and was physically dominated even at 135. At 144, he was painfully slow, seemed to have lost all of his power, and was physically toyed with.

Another big difference is that Bradley had two belts and gave up one of them but kept the other. Khan only has one belt and would rather give it up than fight Maidana.

And finally, Campbell was Bradley's WBO mandatory, so he wasn't refusing to fight a mandatory, he was just put in a position where he had to choose between two mandatories and drop one of his belts.

So Bradley only gave up one out of his two belts in order to fight a mandatory who most thought was a bigger threat to him than his other mandatory; whereas Khan is willing to give up his only belt in order to avoid his only mandatory challenger whom most consider to be a much bigger threat to his chin than JMM is.

I wouldn't mind if he was doing it on the basis that Maidana would be given a guaranteed shot at the Khan-JMM winner, but GPB are saying they want Khan to fight Zab next - they clearly have no plans for him to fight Maidana at all. And that just sucks.
