      Khan has the advantage in hand speed, foot speed boxing skill and in pretty much every other area

      maybe stamina is an issue which bradley could have a chance at
      Ye Bradley would have the edge in staminia,but that wouldnt be enough for him,he would eat nearly as many shots as maidana did,and like i said im a huge bradley fan

        Khan was sloppy, particularly in the second half of the fight because he couldn't breathe. Maidana was all over him and Khan was on the back foot and not being able to impose himself as well. Against a fighter like Bradley, he's fighting a much better boxer, but Khan wouldn't be under nearly as much pressure, thus giving himself more time and space to box how he and Roach want him to box. He won't be rushed with Bradley, he'll be able to control the ring somewhat. That's hard to do when you have a Maidana type fighter charging at you.

          Maidana was slow as a snail, and he got to Khan. Khan is fast and has good height and reach and decent skills, but Bradley is tough, and when he goes down, he gets up. Bradley nor Alexander will be a cake walk for Khan...

            Bradley has better ring smarts than Amir Khan. Trust me, Bradley will draw him in to his fight, and batter Khan. Ain't no way Khan is outboxing Bradley son.

                I'll reserve a proper pick until after the Bradley/Alexander fight but ..

                Alexander: against Khan I think he has a worse chance than Bradley. In his favour though he's a southpaw with good speed and power, and he has that uppercut that Khan is very, very open for.

                Bradley: I pick him to beat Alexander. Technically the dude is very sound and will be a test for Khan as it'll be a straight up technical boxing match. He lacks power but uses a lot of head/upperbody movement, has good footwork/fast feet, and has pretty fast hands himself. He gives up a lot of size but he's good at minimising that negative. He also has great stamina.



                I'll admit i'm a Khan "hater", I just don't like him. But I have to respect wht he did with Maidana, and that's survive a firefight that a lot of people said he wouldn't. I'm not gonna go into the ins and outs of his chin, improvement etc but I will say one thing: Bradley and Alexander don't have the raw power of Maidana, but they do box 10x better than him.

                An accurate shot, delivered with perfect timing and technique, is better than a clubbing shot glancing someone. Both these guys will land cleaner on Khan and earlier. Also they'll be hitting him **** on the button more. I'm not predicting the whole glass jaw shattered glass thing, just saying that Khan could well be on the end of a LOT more punches.

                    It's comments like these that make me question whether people even watch Tim Bradley fight at all....Bradley does not outbox opponents, he overwhelms them and out hustles them...Amir Khan can easily outbox Bradley, he is the taller fighter with the longer reach and superior boxer...if he keeps Bradley at bay with the jab and occasional 1-2 he can dominate him for 12...it wouldn't be easy, he just needs to keep Bradley off him and out of his range the whole fight...no easy task since Bradley is a stamina freak and is good at closing the gaps against fighters


                    I think Khan faced his biggest threat at 140 already in Maidana.....stylistically speaking, I thought Ortiz would give him a tough fight but after his showing against Peterson IDK anymore

                      Things are quite tight at the top of the LWW tree. I don't see an outright dominant fighter head and shoulders better than the rest. I feel Khan would beat Alexander but Bradley has it in him to cause real problems.
