Screw Alexander, he ain't winning. I know deep in my heart that Khan will want no part of Tim Bradley. If Tim had won the prestigious ring belt all the pressure in the world would be on Khan to fight him. Now that there is only ABC belts on the line he won't get the same recognition. I can already see it now. Khan wanting what he deems as "the hardest fight in his life" in Marquez. He is following the recent matchups of his buddy Manny Pacquaio.Comment

if Maidana had won against Khan, this fight would have been for the ring title.
I cant blame them, Khan is a cashcow.
at least Khan has to fight the winner and nr 1 of this division.Comment

Everything about Bradley screams he's lineal material. He got his belt by beating a reigning champ in Witter, no vacant title BS, who's only loss prior was in a fight with Zab where he had 1 week to prepair, then unified against Holt and beat him twice, beat many solid contenders along the way, and now is attempting to unify three belts vs Alexander. But it's still not enough for him. Compair this to how Pacquaio got the ring belt. Spent less than 10 minutes in the division against a past prime fighter, and got to keep the belt for a good while after he left the division.
WTF? This isn't Collage Football! Beating the champion is in every case a hudred times better than giving it to the guy thats beat the most contenders. Sorry but this is boxing not the BCS!Comment

JMM is no push over but he doesn't belong at 140. Hell, he really doesn't belong at 135 even though he's the best at that weight. Khan would look like a punk ass ***** if he goes after JMM instead of Tim(which he will). Giving Bradley the ring belt would of just added pressure on Khan not to run away from the matchup.Comment

No, it does. The public looks at ABC belts as nothing but trinkets. The Ring belt still has prestige and if Tim had it, people would demand the fight more. I'll be more upset if Khan doesn't fight Tim than Mayweather/Pac or any fight that hasn't happened because Tim has a chance to carry the torch for American boxing. Khan will take that away from him if the fight doesn't take place.Comment
