The Ring is considering Bradley vs Alexander for the Ring title

Anybody who rates Alexander at #2 in the 140 division needs their head examined.Dam Dirk, you spent like 10 straight hours on this topic. If alexander is not worthy of 2(ring magazine has him there) because of the performance vs. kotelnik, then how the hell does khan deserve it after running for the last 3 rounds against a guy who you rate lower than kotelnik?
One bad fight and devon is a bum huh. Prior to the kotelnik fight he was considered to have the best upside in the division, so again when did khan pass him? You don't fight the 4, get your a.. kicked for 9 straight minutes and jump over the 2..............and kotelnik at 3. What do they smoke in Britain? Scottish haze?Comment

For those fussing about whether Khan or Alexander should be ranked #2 or #3, it really is irrelevant as the Ring Champion can also be determined by a fight between #1 and #3.
Championship vacancies can be filled by winning a box-off between The Ring's number-one and number-two contenders, or, in certain instances, a box-off between our number-one and number-three contenders.

Haters gonna hate but since Khan is going to duck whoever wins they need to shut the hell up.
Until Amir mans up and agrees to fight Bradley vs Alexander winner then his nutthuggers need to call for him to stop running.Comment

Ok that's my typo, should say had. The point still remains how was alexander's performance that much worse than khans? Funny how a few weeks removed fans are acting as if khan was spectacular. If one dropped after a lousy performanfce in a win, shouldn't the other when the same occurs?Dam Dirk, you spent like 10 straight hours on this topic.

To sum it all up, I have no problem with this fight being for the ring title. I think it's laughable that it's not legit because khan isn't involved.Comment

Not its not, we all saw Kotelnik get robbed and we all know he isnt one of the top 2 currently. Thats not hypothetical.That's what we all want but Khan don't want any of it. Khan wants to fight Peterson and Marquez. Why should we hold the belt hostage because one clearly just wants to fight the big names, instead of the tough fights? If Khan wants the ring belt he has every chance he wants to take it from the winner.
Dirk keeps saying hypothetical this and that but his whole case against the ring belt not being awarded is a hypothetical in itself. Alexander won the fight, it's in the books and now it's time to accept it. This fight is matching the number 1 and number 3 fighter which is well in the rules for a fight for the belt. We all may of thought Kotelnik won but in reality he didn't so stop trying to change history.
Hypothetical is saying Khan will duck the winner even though he has said several times that he'll fight the winner. Its something that hasnt happened.Comment

Alexander is 3 at Ring (who also had Kotelnik beating him). What a ****** comparison. Khan beat Maidana. Alexander got outclassed by Kotelnik. Oh and just for *****s, Khan shutout Kotelnik.Dam Dirk, you spent like 10 straight hours on this topic.

Good one.Comment

I have no problem with it, the winner should fight Khan and then we'd know who #1 is. If Khan and his cronies don't like it, make the fight happen.Comment

^^^^^this and I don't know why boxing fans seem to worship the ring, though its rankings are pretty respectable.For those fussing about whether Khan or Alexander should be ranked #2 or #3, it really is irrelevant as the Ring Champion can also be determined by a fight between #1 and #3.
Championship vacancies can be filled by winning a box-off between The Ring's number-one and number-two contenders, or, in certain instances, a box-off between our number-one and number-three contenders.
