Comments Thread For: Tim Bradley is Willing To Fight Amir Khan in The UK

[americanbot]

How many taller fighters do you think Bradley has beaten in his career? Probably all of the guys in his W column...

Bradley has more power than you think... He's somewhat slick and extremely quick with GREAT footwork and head movement... Bradley has put like 4 out of his last 6 opponents on the canvas, he's got some pop, but going for the KD ain't his bag... He trains for 12 (probably could go 15)...

people got it confused. they think bradley will actually try & sit there and BOX with khan???

AHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

MAHAHAHAHAHAHA

WHOOOOOOOHAHAHAHAHA!

noooo. bradley will come forward on khan much like he did to holt. bradley will be walking khan down. not like maidana where maidana had his hands down chin in the air & no head movement. bradley is planning to walk khan down in a very technical sorta way. in my opinion thats a nightmare for khans style of fighting. you add in the fact that bradley is fast & sneaky enough to catch khan without him seeing over & over. it can be a long night. bradley also has that combination of speed & pop that could knock amir out totally.

bradley is NOT gonna box with khan. (people must throw that out of their heads) bradley could care less about "boxing" khan.

Well that's just plain idiotic. If Maidana couldn't KO Khan, then Bradley sure as **** isn't going to be able to. And he's not going to win a decision in the UK.

That having been said, Bradley isn't ******. So he clearly is just talking ****.

Señor Bradley you NEED TO FOCUS ON DEVON!!! NOTHING MORE... after you get passed alexander, go after Ortiz! build up the khan fight, i like to see amir vs kell brook lets find out who's the best brit of this 2!!!
clean the 140 and you will call the shots!!!

For some reason I think Bradley is more of a disadvantage against Khan than Devon. Bradley doesn't have the power to crack Khan's glass jaw, but Devon does. Also Bradley is so short how is he going to get past Amir's jab? Plus Devon has a mean uppercut the punch that Khan ate all night from Maidana. I'm pulling for Alexander to beat Bradley cuz I think he's more talented and just needs more experience. I think he's still a little green to be challenging Bradley but hey at least he's not dodging threats like Berto.

I was thinking exactly the same. Amir Khan is very fast fighter and moves a lot, if you don't hurt him he will continue earning points on you. If Bradley can't hurt him, I feel like Amir is going to hurt him, he has pretty decent power in his punches, guys like Malignaggi, Maidana, Kotelnik are not easy opponents to crack.

oh tiny tim like already it has been said on here first win over devon, if you do win and then victor or marcos then amir i.m.o.

The style match-up definitely favors Khan. Bradley doesn't have the power to pose a serious threat to Khan, but he has will and determination that would definitely make it competitive.

Tim Bradley is a throwback; he's fight anybody, anywhere in and around the 140 division.

good, but Prescott is still knocking on Khan's door, pls don't jump the line:-)

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.

I like your description of khan vs bradley. Co-sign

[Dagreatest]

Bradley handle your biz first in Detroit with about 5k fans or less against Alexander then worry about facing Khan.

Khan vs Bradley would be a straight up thrilla.
