    Yes. IMO he is. Bradley was the no.1 but if Amir beats Maidana, his resume will surpass Bradleys resume. Then again if Bradley beats Alexander in January, he should be back at no.1 again. Khan-Bradley is going to be the fight for the crown of 140.

      No, He has to beat Alexander and Bradley to be "the man" in the division. Maidana doesnt even have a belt. He's Khan's manditory so beating Maidana doesnt make him the best. It just means he's beaten his manditory. Maidana isnt #1 or #2 in the division.

      To be the best you have to beat the other champions in your division. I rate Bradley as #1 right now with Alexander just behind him. Khan still has alot to prove in my opinion.

        Not quite, but close. He'll be the joint #1 along with Alexander and Bradley, but whoever wins out of a fight between those 3 is then the king of the division.

          IMO Amir is already at #2 now that Alexander lost to Kotelnik. If he beats Maidana he should be no.1. Bradleys resume isnt all that. If Amir beats Maidana, Bradleys and Amirs resumes will be very similar.

            I don't think so. He would have a great case, but Bradley would probably step in a ring a month later and beat Alexander. Khan would have to beat Bradley himself to be the man at 140.

                Alexander didn't lose, though. I know it's the popular opinion to cry "ROBBERY! ROBBERY!" around here, but that won't change the stats. So like I said, by rights they're all joint #1 until one of them loses. Whoever first wins, is the man. If he wins again against the other guy, he's the undisputed man.

                All are capable of doing so, but I still think Alexander takes it. Bradley didn't look all that amazing against Abregu, and I saw many holes in Khan's gameplan against Malignaggi.

                  No,what,he beat Paulie.that's it,c'mon people!!How would he pass Bradley or Devon??Especially Bradley,Junior Witter,unifying with Kendall Holt,an unbeaten welterweight,stop trippin.After he fight's Maidana & if he wins,he has to fight the winner of Devon-Bradley,then the cycle is complete & the best will be clear,that's how it's done!!
