Both guys beat Khan. But Khan can be competitive with either. He has a better chance with Alexander though, who doesn't work as much as Tim does.

Again, I believe his chin is much better at 140.
The guy had to lose 14 lbs to make 135 and his legs were skinny as ****.
His body was packed at the top but legs thin as anything.
Bradley the same, although his chin is a lot better.
Yes having a top chin is needed at elite level and I believe that his tighter defence, much tighter defence will help.
His style has changed, he use to try and take control and brawl, where as now he waits and gets out.
Also I think he took one or two shots from Kotelnik and wasn't too fazed. Yes he isn;t much of a puncher but neither was willie limond.
The right conditional, weight, nutriotion surely helps.
We gotta wait til he is in there with a top puncher, but my own belief is that his chin is a lot better.Comment

Amir Khan has the style to beat Bradley if Bradley is ****** enough to fight the fight at distance and fight Amir Khan's fight. Khan's game is suited to fighting shorter men where he uses his reach and size advantage and his fast hands to move in fire his shots and if anything comes back cover up and run out of the way and start again. That is his style and he is very good at it and Bradley is short .
Khan has woefull infighting skills and if Bradley takes the fight to the inside which he will be planning to do Khan will be at a huge disadvantage and will be KOd. The fight is much more likely to go this way.
Much has been made about Khan's improvement with Roach. All I see is that he has got better at his hit and hop it style but I have seen no improvement in his infighting skills and he is still too square on and does not cover up when firing his salvos and has a style that is asking for a left hook which is his nemises.
I feel of a lot of his "I am going to beat X" comments are a combination of publicity and trying to convince himself that he can do it. Inside he knows he is no match for Bradley or Alexander and real boxing fans know it. Untill the Bradley fight is signed as with much that comes out of Team Khan his claims have to be seen as his usual hype,hot air and bluster. Khan is a joke . I wish he would just shut up ,not duck and take real fights instead .Comment

Wow, Amir is really looking past Paulie isn't he?Comment

Today, tomorrow, 5 weeks from now, 6 months from now.... who cares?
Khan won't beat any of those guys no matter how much time passes.
The fact that he admits he isn't ready now but thinks he will be ready in 6 months after beating up some featherfisted also ran shows exactly how ****** and out of touch with reality is. What is he gonna learn against Pauli that will get him by Bradley, Maidana or Alexander? Nothing and you know it. What is the 2 months of rest afterward going to do for him? Nothing and you know it. What is 4 more months of training gonna matter against someone who knows your chin is softer than ****? Nothing and you know it.
The fact that you buy into this garbage doesn't reflect well on you.
Also, if you think Khan's chin is better at 140 then you are in for a rude awakening. The guy is the most fragile boxer I have ever seen in my life. Pauili may only have 5 KO's but I bet you the 5 guys he knocked out had better chins than Con.
If Khan would have been 140 against Prescott do you actually think he would have taken those punches and come back to win?Comment

Not a hater just more than a casual fan. Khan will get KTFU and outclassed by both Bradley and Alexander. It wouldn't matter if Jesus Christ himself was his trainer. Get real....LOL I will even go so far as to say Maidana will beat him as well. I'm actually hoping and praying he fights one of these guys.Comment

but does he have a good enough chin????Comment

Khan is a fraud. Yes he has great skills and speed, blah blah blah. Problem is that in the sport of boxing being able to take a punch is the most important skill to have.
The chances of Khan beating Bradley, Maidana or Alexander are about the same as the chances that Jimmy Johnson can win the Sprint Cup driving a car that only has 3 tires.Comment
. Amir said that he wants to be the no.1 in the 140 division, he therefore has to fight the likes of Bradley, Alexander or Maidana. This is great news but just watch how them haters are gonna hate on Amir yet again.
