    The thing is even in fights where Bradley has shown weakness he has won, and often won easy. He has never looked as clueless and exposed as Alexander did last night.

      Its not hard to believe at all.....

      BUT when people start to talk about the competition like they are nothing, no bodies, passed it, etc....Some say that Kotelnik was a nobody when Khan beat him.....Abregu is a walking tomato can who hasn't fought anyone of note (people said that before the Bradley fight)....yet all of a sudden AFTER the fact...

      Kotelnik and Abregu are NOW CONSIDERED "decent competition"......

        Wouldn't it funny if Bredis KOd either Bradley or Devon....or maybe we should just classify Khan as damaged goods.

        Hell lets bring up Manny being KTFO by Torrecampo.....Hasegawa by Montiel.....Caballero by Rojas....

            Besides his obvious chin problem, Khan has a habit of lunging in and getting square.

                Against JMM....that could pose as a HUGE problem....Maidana wouldn't know what to do with that.

                  Maybe exposed is a bad word, it's just that Bradley and Khan have never been thoroughly beaten like that. What we saw last night was not just Alexander having an off night or little problems he needs to fix. We saw all the major flaws he has finally taken advantage of.

                  Alexander has a lot of work to do.

                    Hatton outboxed Paulie too.


                    Paulie doesn't have the power to be a dangerous opponent even to Iron Chin Khan.

                      Khan's bad chin doesn't come from that one fight. He's been knocked down 5 times against relatively 'nobodies' as a pro.

                      Drilzane(1 time), Gomez(1 time), Limmond(1 time), and two by Prescott which one lead to an actual KO.
