Bradley slams Khan, confirms Abregu date.

[MACAQUEINBLACK]

Naz stopped having good haircuts fairly early in his pro career.


Dig it, that's a nice haircut right there,





Clean-cut, straight-shooter - why wouldn't I support it?

[Vadrigar.]

Why not? The kid's likeable, talented, I like the quickness, accuracy and weight of that jab, he had a nice haircut Saturday night, etc.


I'll support Khan against guys like Maidana, Bradley, Alexander, sure.

Wouldn't support him against Marquez.


My favorite JWW is/was Malignaggi, but it looks like he might call it a day.
In a fan kinda way, I'm not really partial to any other 140lber I can think of off the top of my head (I kinda like Ngoudjo, LOL, but he's no great shakes) -- I just acknowledge the obvious quality of Bradley and Alexander, while I can't get behind either -- but Khan has a cool brew of imagination-capturing elements going on, so I could for sure get behind him against his real peers at JWW.

I would loose confidence in him if he fought marquez.

quite similar to Pernell Whitaker actually. It is a nice haircut.

Let me ask you a question.

In terms of fighting style and body posture, is khan closer to tito/de la hoya or bernard hopkins/mayweather/pernel whitaker.


Also who does khans stance and style remind you of?

[poeticlsykuac]

Tim Bradley ain't getting my respect until he fights Alexander, and Alexander will beat the **** out of him, and then Amir Khan will beat the **** out of Alexander.

Haven't seen much of Bradley or Alexander? If Alexander beats Bradley which I find doubtful as Alexander isn't that diverse, Kahn will just get KO'd by Alexander instead of Bradley.

I don't know if I could compare Khan in any way to a style as individualistic, unorthodox, yet complete, as Whitaker, but, though I think Khan is athletically less versatile than Mayweather, I could argue for seeing some elements of Floyd in him, little moments of counterpunching and trap-setting, the occasional lead left-hook. Khan comparisons to De La Hoya have been plentiful, too, and I can also see that quite a lot when I think of Oscar's pure boxer style like how he fought Trinidad.

This might sound weird, but in some ways I'm also reminded of Arguello - although, trying to think about another fighter's style that closely parallels how Khan fights now, I come up with small or obvious incongruities whoever I think of.




Sidenote,

a couple years back, after the Rubio disaster, Oliver Harrison was quoted as saying that Khan should head to Wincobank and work with the Ingles, that Khan's natural calling was as a hands low, slip 'n' slide style fighter - I couldn't understand that, seemed crazy to me.

What about a left handed tommy hearns? What if roach taught him to switch southpaw during a fight?

On top of that, with Reyes punchers gloves that would be crazy.

Harrison actually likened Khan to Hearns in that interview I was referring to.


You see Roach and Khan pulling that kind of stuff off, man? Khan switching stances and changing looks on the fly, you think he's got that kind of development potential?

Before I reply to your questions, do you have a transcript/video of the interview?

[BetterCallSaul]

Bradley is full of s**t. Khan isn't trying to force anybodys hand. He merely stated that if he has to fight a top LWW, then the other top LWW should have to do the same. It makes more sense for Khan to fight Maidana because he is his mandatory, and a big puncher. It makes sense for Bradley to fight Alexander because they are the number one and the number two in the division. But Bradley doesn't want to fight any top LWW's. Thus he is fighting Abregu. At least Khan is proposing to fight at least two top LWW's. Maidana and then the winner of Bradley - Alexander. Little Timothy doesn't even want to fight one. He is just a ducker looking for a big payday against Mayweather.

Stop talking and start acting Little Timothy. Khan, Alexander, and Maidana are all down. You need to put your mouth in the drawer and man up.
