      You do understand that Urango was easy pickens for Alexander, right? I mean, just look at the styles for goodness sake!!!

      Witter (has a strange style and both beat him), Holt is a boxer puncher (Bradley worked him), Campbell (a slick vet, that was well on his way to getting worked), Peterson (has very good skills...Speed, footwork, and decent power).

      Bradley worked them all.

      Now the only win you are talking about is URANGO!!!!???? Slow, no speed, or footwork? That is the best you can come up with?

      Child please!!!

        I'd say Khan is the most naturally gifted but the other 2 have a better skill set as of now.

          . I was waiting till someone was going to say this. Amir has the most talent of them 3. Yet Bradley and Alexander are more skilled because they make less mistakes and know exactly what to do in a fight. Bradley and Alexander are therefore the more complete fighters. Especially Bradley. Amir needs more polishing.

            Not Khan, He hasn't beaten anyone especial at 140 yet. Nothing but a spoon fed titleholder.

              Alexander "the Great" and Timothy "Desert Storm" Bradley are still levels above amir khan
              Alexander is anxious to fight Maidiana the guy amir ducked. That tells the whole story right there.

                Here's how I look at it:

                Khan is the most physically gifted, with awesome speed and reflexes, and respectable power; however he is technically pretty rigid and quite flawed defensively in my opinion. Also we all know about that fragile chin of his.

                Bradley has the most actual tangible evidence of his ability of the trio, and has good ring smarts and is very well rounded. He seems to be one of those boxers that always will find a way to win, but I think eventually his unremarkable physical traits will sell him short against the highest level of opposition.

                Alexander seemingly has both the physical traits and technical ability it takes to find yourself on the top of the boxing world, and I think he may possess actual pound-for-pound quality soon enough. I consider him the best of the three; can't think of anything negative to say of him--but flaws may come to light over time (or I may just not be looking hard enough, I have only seen three of his fights).

                  id say devon is the most 'skilled' but still think bradley is the best all round right now,as in id pick him over anyone else at 140

                    Alexander is a very close second.

                    then Peterson.

                    wazaa, Do you see Roach fully addressing the weaknesses and holes in Khan's game ? Because I don't I see improvements designed to work around his deficiencies rather than fixing them.
