      Khan will be in trouble if he fights Bradley.

      And, is no surprise that Bradley is willing to go to the U.K. He already went their to beat the title holder and #1 rank JWW at the time Junior Witter.

        This is why I like Tim Bradley. He is totally honest (saying he didn't want to fight Devon Alexander so soon) but will be even though he will get less money that he would have got if it was built up more. And now, he is willing to go to the U.K. to fight Amir Khan. I wish all boxers behaved this way...

            witter was never at any point the #1 rank JWW....not in the world, not in the UK, not even in his own street.

              Yes he was, when Bradley fought him Witter was rank #1 and the champ was Hatton.

                Bradley was pretty much unknown then though, well especially in the UK. Nobody in the UK expected Witter to loose that fight.

                  Yep, he was. Witter was #1 and Hatton was the Lineal Champ, after Bradley beat Witter, Bradley was #1 and Hatton was still the champion...The rest we know.

                      I think a lot of the fight would deal with how Bradley reacts to getting tagged from the outside. Some guys get tentative from facing faster guys who are hitting them. Sometimes, they go into a bit of a shell, while others don't get as discouraged. An example is David Tua, who has a tendency to go into a shell, looks to set traps, and loses rounds. Luckily for him, he has a left hook from hell, and this saved him in fights.

                      Maidana was a different case. He kept coming, and eventually got to Khan, but Khan survived. Obviously Bradley doesn't hit as hard as Maidana, but he's more skilled and quicker. Getting Bradley's respect is very important for Khan, because Bradley has the edge at close and mid range, and Khan doesn't have the best of footwork. He has a tendency to go back in straight lines, to the ropes, and Bradley would make him pay up close. But if Bradley is too concerned about the incoming, then things change.

                      But I won't get too ahead of myself. Bradley has Alexander to worry about first anyway.
